I know how linting makes your code so much nicer, but I'm not sure how many hours of my life have been wasted in the past through discussions about semi-colons, how many spaces ad nauseum. Step in Standard.js.
First I removed all my existing eslint and dependency modules (including Airbnb, about 4 of them).
Then I installed locally for dev, updated my npm scripts.
npm i standard --save-dev
Then installed globally so I have access to the command standard on any directory and lint:
standard --fix
I didn't have to make many fixes to my code, although standard did find that I was using 'await' unneccessarily on a couple of functions, which was an immediate improvement to the code.
I use Jest and a couple of issues flagged up. I updated my package.json file to include the jest environment:
"standard": {
"env": [
"jest"
]
},
When in development mode you may need to add this at the top of the file:
/* eslint-env jest */
Which leads to the VSCode plugin. You can set this up to automatically fix any linting issues when you save. So good!
Alternative - Prettier.js
Install:
npm install --save-dev --save-exact prettier
prettier --write src/js/**/*
To be honest, Standard is easier to integrate. I'm not totally convinced on Prettier.
