How can I write a ESLint rule for "linebreak-style", changing depending on Windows or Unix?

Solution 1:

I spent time trying to find how to shut off the linkbreak-style and lost it due to reverting some of my code I thought others my like to have this as well.

In the .eslintrc file you can also set linebreak-style to 0 which shuts off the linebreak feature:

module.exports = {
  extends: 'google',
  quotes: [2, 'single'],
  globals: {
    SwaggerEditor: false
  },
  env: {
    browser: true
  },
  rules:{
    "linebreak-style": 0   // <----------
  }
};

Solution 2:

The eslint configuration file can be a regular .js file (ie, not JSON, but full JS with logic) that exports the configuration object.

That means you could change the configuration of the linebreak-style rule depending on your current environment (or any other JS logic you can think of).

For example, to use a different linebreak-style configuration when your node environment is 'prod':

module.exports = {
    "root": true,
    "parserOptions": {
        "sourceType": "module",
        "ecmaVersion": 6
    },
    "rules": {
        // windows linebreaks when not in production environment
        "linebreak-style": ["error", process.env.NODE_ENV === 'prod' ? "unix" : "windows"]
    }
};

Example usage:

$ NODE_ENV=prod node_modules/.bin/eslint src/test.js

src/test.js
  1:25  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  2:30  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  3:36  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  4:26  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  5:17  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  6:50  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  7:62  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style
  8:21  error  Expected linebreaks to be 'CRLF' but found 'LF'  linebreak-style

$ NODE_ENV=dev node_modules/.bin/eslint src/test.js
$ # no errors

Solution 3:

In your .eslintrc.js:

"rules": {
  "linebreak-style": ["error", (process.platform === "win32" ? "windows" : "unix")], // https://stackoverflow.com/q/39114446/2771889

Solution 4:

.eslintc for Windows visualstudio code

{
  "env": {
    "node": true
  },
  "rules":{
    "linebreak-style": 0
  }
}
