===================
React specific linting rules for eslint
npm install eslint eslint-plugin-react --save-devIt is also possible to install ESLint globally rather than locally (using npm install eslint --global). However, this is not recommended, and any plugins or shareable configs that you use must be installed locally in either case.
Use our preset to get reasonable defaults:
"extends": [
"eslint:recommended",
"plugin:react/recommended"
]If you are using the new JSX transform from React 17, extend react/jsx-runtime in your eslint config (add "plugin:react/jsx-runtime" to "extends") to disable the relevant rules.
You should also specify settings that will be shared across all the plugin rules. (More about eslint shared settings)
{
"settings": {
"react": {
"createClass": "createReactClass", // Regex for Component Factory to use,
// default to "createReactClass"
"pragma": "React", // Pragma to use, default to "React"
"fragment": "Fragment", // Fragment to use (may be a property of <pragma>), default to "Fragment"
"version": "detect", // React version. "detect" automatically picks the version you have installed.
// You can also use `16.0`, `16.3`, etc, if you want to override the detected value.
// It will default to "latest" and warn if missing, and to "detect" in the future
"flowVersion": "0.53" // Flow version
},
"propWrapperFunctions": [
// The names of any function used to wrap propTypes, e.g. `forbidExtraProps`. If this isn't set, any propTypes wrapped in a function will be skipped.
"forbidExtraProps",
{"property": "freeze", "object": "Object"},
{"property": "myFavoriteWrapper"},
// for rules that check exact prop wrappers
{"property": "forbidExtraProps", "exact": true}
],
"componentWrapperFunctions": [
// The name of any function used to wrap components, e.g. Mobx `observer` function. If this isn't set, components wrapped by these functions will be skipped.
"observer", // `property`
{"property": "styled"}, // `object` is optional
{"property": "observer", "object": "Mobx"},
{"property": "observer", "object": "<pragma>"} // sets `object` to whatever value `settings.react.pragma` is set to
],
"formComponents": [
// Components used as alternatives to <form> for forms, eg. <Form endpoint={ url } />
"CustomForm",
{"name": "Form", "formAttribute": "endpoint"}
],
"linkComponents": [
// Components used as alternatives to <a> for linking, eg. <Link to={ url } />
"Hyperlink",
{"name": "Link", "linkAttribute": "to"}
]
}
}If you do not use a preset you will need to specify individual rules and add extra configuration.
Add "react" to the plugins section.
{
"plugins": [
"react"
]
}Enable JSX support.
With eslint 2+
{
"parserOptions": {
"ecmaFeatures": {
"jsx": true
}
}
}Enable the rules that you would like to use.
"rules": {
"react/jsx-uses-react": "error",
"react/jsx-uses-vars": "error",
}✔: Enabled in the recommended configuration.
🔧: Fixable with eslint --fix.

- Rules of Hooks: eslint-plugin-react-hooks
- JSX accessibility: eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y
- React Native: eslint-plugin-react-native
This plugin exports a recommended configuration that enforces React good practices.
To enable this configuration use the extends property in your .eslintrc config file:
{
"extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:react/recommended"]
}See eslint documentation for more information about extending configuration files.
This plugin also exports an all configuration that includes every available rule.
This pairs well with the eslint:all rule.
{
"plugins": [
"react"
],
"extends": ["eslint:all", "plugin:react/all"]
}Note: These configurations will import eslint-plugin-react and enable JSX in parser options.
