Configuration for ESLint, Prettier, Stylelint, and Commitlint at LeafLink.

Installation
[!IMPORTANT]
Requirements ESLint v9 and above Node.js v20 and above Stylelint v16 and above (optional)
If you're going to be using both eslint & stylelint in your project, then the fastest way to get started is to run:
npx install-peerdeps --dev @leaflink/eslint-config
If you don't need to leverage stylelint in your project, then just install this package along with eslint v9:
npm install --save-dev eslint@9 @leaflink/eslint-config@latest
If you want to manually install all peer dependencies without using install-peerdeps, you can run:
npm install --save-dev eslint@9 @leaflink/eslint-config@latest stylelint@16 stylelint-config-standard-scss stylelint-config-standard-vue stylelint-order postcss-html
Migration to v4 (ESLint v9+, Stylelint v16+, Node v20+)
- Migrate your app to Node 20 or greater.
npm uninstall eslint-config-leaflink stylelint stylelint-config-standard-scss stylelint-config-standard-vue.
npx install-peerdeps --dev @leaflink/eslint-config.
- Optionally install
globals if you have custom globals set in your projects eslint file: npm install -D globals.
- Rename
.eslintrc.js to eslint.config.mjs.
- Refactor file to use esm syntax & ESLint flat configs. More below on this.
- Delete
.eslintignore and move listed files/directories into an { ignores: [...] } block inside your ESLint
config.
- Find/replace
@ts-ignore -> @ts-expect-error. Be aware, this may actually cause ts errors in the event that the
@ts-ignore wasn't actually doing anything. This is a good thing, just remove the comment altogether.
- Change npm
lint command: eslint --ext .ts,.js,.vue src -> eslint ..
- Rename
stylelint.config.js to stylelint.config.mjs and refactor to esm. If using a json format, it should be
fine to leave it as is.
- Rename
commitlint.config.js to commitlint.config.mjs and refactor to esm. If using a json format, it should be
fine to leave it as is.
[!NOTE] You may also find yourself having to address certain eslint errors that didn't appear before. All 3rd party
configs and plugins were upgraded as part of this update, hence some rules have been changed.
Docs: https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/migration-guide
Summary of main changes
- Your eslint file becomes an array of config objects instead of a single config object
- Global ignores need to be in their own object.
- Move all objects from
overrides up a level - just "flatten" the overrides array and get rid of it.
env objects need to get converted to languageOptions: { globals: { ...globals.node, ...globals.jest } } and you
need to load globals from the globals npm package. They aren't baked in anymore.
files always needs to be an array: files: '**/*.spec.ts' -> files: ['**/*.spec.ts']
files globs need to be a little more specific it seems. files: ['*.spec.ts'] -> files: ['**/*.spec.ts']
Example
Old usage (.eslintrc.js):
module.exports = {
extends: 'leaflink',
};
New usage (eslint.config.mjs):
import leaflinkConfig from '@leaflink/eslint-config';
export default [
...leaflinkConfig,
];
Usage
Create an eslint.config.mjs file in the root of your project and extend from the shared LeafLink config.
[!IMPORTANT] If you haven't enabled esm in your project by default, you may need to name your config file
eslint.config.mjs. Otherwise, projects that use "type": "module" in their package.json can probably use the
.js extension.
import leaflinkConfig from '@leaflink/eslint-config';
import { defineConfig, globalIgnores } from 'eslint/config';
export default defineConfig([
...leaflinkConfig,
globalIgnores(['my-custom-path', '**/generated/**']),
{
rules: {
},
},
]);
Browsers
If your test files rely on a browser environment, you probably need to configure ESLint to be aware of the browser
globals since they are not included by default from Vitest or Testing Library.
import { defineConfig } from 'eslint/config';
import globals from 'globals';
export default defineConfig([
...leaflinkConfig,
{
files: ['**/?(*.)+(spec).[jt]s'],
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.browser,
},
},
},
]);
Including the browser globals for test files will prevent linting errors such as 'window' is not defined and
'document' is not defined.
Be sure to install globals with npm i -D globals.
If you have any other scripts outside of a Vue or React context that rely on the browser, you can tell ESLint to provide
certain globals be adding a globals comment to the top of the file.
For example, imagine that the following is for a runtime script called unregisterServiceWorker.ts.
export default function unregisterServiceWorker() {
if (window && navigator?.serviceWorker) {
navigator.serviceWorker.getRegistrations().then(function (registrations) {
for (const registration of registrations) {
registration.unregister();
}
});
}
}
Prettier
Prettier is automatically run through eslint with LeafLink's default configuration. You can optionally
add a prettier.config.mjs configuration file in the root of your project and it will take precedence over the
built-in config within @leaflink/eslint-config.
If you'd like to extend our prettier config and only override a couple of properties, you can do the following:
prettier.config.mjs
import leaflinkConfig from '@leaflink/eslint-config/prettier.js';
const config = {
...leaflinkConfig,
};
export default config;
Stylelint
In your .stylelintrc file, you can extend from the shared LeafLink stylelint config.
{
"extends": ["@leaflink/eslint-config/stylelint"]
}
Or you can do so in your package.json:
{
"stylelint": {
"extends": ["@leaflink/eslint-config/stylelint"]
}
}
Or in stylelint.config.mjs:
export default {
extends: ['@leaflink/eslint-config/stylelint'],
};
commitlint
Create a commitlint.config.mjs file at the root of your project with the following content:
import leaflinkConfig from '@leaflink/eslint-config/commitlint.js';
export default leaflinkConfig;
If you want to extend the leaflinkConfig with custom overrides, you can do so like this:
import leaflinkConfig from '@leaflink/eslint-config/commitlint.js';
export default Object.assign(leaflinkConfig, {
rules: {
'scope-case': [1],
},
});
Lastly, in order for husky to lint your commit messages, you need to create a .husky/commit-msg file in your project
with the following content:
#!/usr/bin/env sh
npx --no -- commitlint --edit $1
Husky Hooks (Enabled by Default)
Husky hooks are enabled by default and will run automatically when users commit or push. However, individual users
can opt-out of Husky hooks in several ways:
Temporary opt-out (single command):
HUSKY=0 git commit -m "Your commit message"
Session opt-out:
export HUSKY=0
git commit -m "Your commit message"
git push
unset HUSKY
Global opt-out (per user): Users can create ~/.config/husky/init.sh with:
export HUSKY=0
[!Note]
It's recommended you attempt to remove as many of your specific overrides as possible and see how much can be
autofixed to be inline with this shared configuration. You can extend from leaflink and set temporary overrides to
turn some rules off in order to make the initial migration easier.
