await-async-result | :mag: Warns about not using the result of a call to an async function inside async functions. | TSLint's no-floating-promises requires you to specify a list of Promise names, it checks outside of async functions and only requires you to register the onrejected callback. |
await-only-promise | :mag: :wrench: Finds uses of await on non-Promise values. Also checks for await loops. | Works for all PromiseLike and Thenable types out of the box without any configuration. |
ban-dom-globals | :mag: Disallows uses of global variables like name or event . Using these variables is most likely not intended. | There's an open PR to add a similar rule to TSLint. |
generator-require-yield | Requires at least one yield inside generator functions. | There's no similar TSLint rule. |
new-parens | :wrench: Requires parentheses when invoking constructors. | Performance! |
no-case-declaration | Disallows let , class and enum in case blocks. | TSLint has no similar rule, ESLint has no-case-declarations which forbids function declarations as well. |
no-debugger | :wrench: Bans debugger; statements from your production code. | Performance! |
no-duplicate-case | :mag_right: Detects switch statements where multiple case clauses check for the same value. | This implementation tries to infer the value instead of just comparing the source code. |
no-duplicate-spread-property | :mag: Detects properties in object literals with object spread that are always overridden. | TSLint has no such rule. |
no-fallthrough | Prevents unintentional fallthough in switch statements from one case to another. | Allows more comment variants such as fallthrough or fall through . |
no-inferred-empty-object | :mag: Detects type parameters that are inferred as {} because the compiler cannot infer a type. | Really checks every type parameter of function, method and constructor calls. Correctly handles type parameters from JSDoc comments. Recognises type parameter defaults on all merged declarations. |
no-invalid-assertion | :mag: Disallows asserting a literal type to a different literal type of the same widened type, e.g. 'foo' as 'bar' . | TSLint has no similar rule. |
no-misused-generics | Detects generic type parameters that cannot be inferred from the functions parameters. It also detects generics that don't enforce any constraint between types. | There's no similar TSLint rule. |
no-nan-compare | Disallows comparing with NaN , use isNaN(number) or Number.isNaN(number) instead. | Performance! |
no-return-await | Disallows unnecesary return await foo; when you can simply return foo; | The same as TSLint's rule. I wrote both, but this one is faster. |
no-unassigned-variable | Detects variables that are not initialized and never assigned a value. | There's no similar TSLint rule. |
no-unreachable-code | Disallows statements that will never be executed. | TSLint removed their no-unreachable rule in v4.0.0. |
no-unsafe-finally | Disallows control flow statements return , throw , break and continue inside the finally block of a try statement. | Performance! |
no-unstable-api-use | Finds uses of deprecated and experimental variables, classes, properties, functions, signatures, ... requires type information | This rule checks element accesses (foo[bar] ), JSX elements, chained function calls (getFn()() ) in addition to what TSLint's deprecation rule does and has more useful error reporting. |
no-unused-expression | Warns about side-effect free expressions whose value is not used | This one is a bit stricter than TSLint's no-unused-expression and checks for loops in addition. |
no-unused-label | Warns about labels that are never used or at the wrong position. | TSLint only has label-position which doesn't check for unused labels. |
no-useless-assertion | Detects type assertions that don't change the type or are not necessary in the first place. requires type information | TSLint's no-unnecessary-type-assertion does not detect assertions needed to silence the compiler warning Variable ... is used before being assigned. The Wotan builtin rule also checks whether the assertion is necessary at all or the receiver accepts the original type. |
no-useless-declare | Disallows the declare keyword on statements without runtime value, e.g. declare type T = any; . | TSLint has no such rule. |
no-useless-initializer | Detects unnecessary initialization with undefined and destructuring defaults (requires type information). | TSLint's rule no-unnecessary-initializer doesn't fix all parameter initializers and gives false positives for destructuring. |
no-useless-jump-label | Detects continue label; and break label; where the label is not necessary. | There's no similar TSLint rule. |
no-useless-predicate | Detects redundant conditions that are either always true or always false. requires type information | Combination of TSLint's strict-type-predicates , typeof-compare and parts of strict-boolean-expressions . |
no-useless-spread | Detects redundant array and object spread which can safely be removed. | There's no similar TSLint rule. |
prefer-const | Prefer const for variables that are never reassigned. Use option {destructuring: "any"} if you want to see failures for each identifier of a destructuring, even if not all of them can be constants. The default is {destructuring: "all"} . | TSLint's prefer-const rule gives some false positives for merged declarations and variables used in before being declared which results in a compiler error after fixing. |
prefer-dot-notation | Prefer obj.foo over obj['foo'] where possible. | Same as TSLint's no-string-literal rule, but more performant. |
prefer-for-of | Prefer for-of loops over regular for loops where possible. requires type information | Avoids the false positives of TSLint's prefer-for-of rule. |
prefer-namespace-keyword | Prefer namespace foo {} over module foo {} to avoid confusion with ECMAScript modules. | Same as TSLint's no-internal-module . |
prefer-number-isnan | Prefer ES2015's Number.isNaN over the global isNaN mainly for performance. requires type information | No similar rule in TSLint. |
prefer-object-spread | Prefer object spread over Object.assign for copying properties to a new object. requires type information | Performance, and better handling of parens in fixer and avoids false positives that would cause a compile error when fixed. |
return-never-call | Prefer return neverReturns(); or throw neverReturns(); over plain calls to neverReturns(); to enable better control flow analysis and type inference. | TSLint has no similar rule. |
syntaxcheck | Reports syntax errors as lint errors. This rule is not enabled in wotan:recommended . requires type information | Used to be part of the deprecated tslint --type-check |
trailing-newline | Requires a line break at the end of each file. | Nothing fancy here :( |
try-catch-return-await | Companion of no-return-await because inside a try-catch block you should await returned promises to correctly enter the catch on rejection and/or the finally block after completion. requires type information | TSLint has no similar rule. |
typecheck | TypeScript's compiler errors as lint errors. This rule is not enabled in wotan:recommended . requires type information | Like the deprecated tslint --type-check but formatted and can be disabled like any other rule. |
