tslint-microsoft-contrib

tslint-microsoft-contrib

A set of TSLint rules used on some Microsoft projects.

Version 0.0.4

This software is not yet released with a 1.0 version. All release blockers are listed in the issues page.

Installation

npm install tslint-microsoft-contrib

Configuration

Configure your Grunt build task

Add the new rulesDirectory to your tslint task:

grunt.initConfig({
  tslint: {
    options: {
      rulesDirectory: 'node_modules/tslint-microsoft-contrib',
      configuration: grunt.file.readJSON("tslint-contrib.json")
    },
    files: {
      src: ['src/file1.ts', 'src/file2.ts']
    }
  }
})

The tslint-contrib.json file follows the same conventions as other tslint rules.

Supported Rules

A sample configuration file with all options is available under tslint-microsoft-contrig/tslint.json

• export-name The name of the exported module must match the filename of the source file. This is case-sensitive but ignores file extension.
• missing-optional-annotation A parameter that follows one or more parameters marked as optional is not itself marked optional
• no-banned-terms Do not use banned terms: caller, callee, eval, arguments. These terms refer to functions or properties that should not be used, so it is best practice to simply avoid them.
• no-cookies Do not use cookies
• no-delete-expression Do not delete expressions. Only properties should be deleted
• no-disable-auto-sanitization Do not disable auto-sanitization of HTML because this opens up your page to an XSS attack. Specifically, do not use the execUnsafeLocalFunction or setInnerHTMLUnsafe functions.
• no-document-write Do not use document.write
• no-duplicate-parameter-names Do not write functions or methods with duplicate parameter names
• no-exec-script Do not use the execScript functions
• no-function-constructor-with-string-args Do not use the version of the Function constructor that accepts a string argument to define the body of the function
• no-http-string Do not use strings that start with 'http:'. URL strings should start with 'https:'. Http strings can be a security problem and indicator that your software may suffer from cookie-stealing attacks.
• no-increment-decrement Avoid use of increment and decrement operators particularly as part of complicated expressions
• no-multiline-string Do not declare multiline strings
• no-unnecessary-semicolons Remove unnecessary semicolons
• no-octal-literal Do not use octal literals or escaped octal sequences
• no-reserved-keywords Do not use reserved keywords as names of local variables, fields, functions, or other identifiers.
• no-string-based-set-immediate Do not use the version of setImmediate that accepts code as a string argument. However, it is acceptable to use the version of setImmediate where a direct reference to a function is provided as the callback argument
• no-string-based-set-interval Do not use the version of setInterval that accepts code as a string argument. However, it is acceptable to use the version of setInterval where a direct reference to a function is provided as the callback argument
• no-string-based-set-timeout Do not use the version of setTimeout that accepts code as a string argument. However, it is acceptable to use the version of setTimeout where a direct reference to a function is provided as the callback argument
• no-unused-imports Remove unused imports
• no-with-statement Do not use with statements. Assign the item to a new variable instead
• react-no-dangerous-html Do not use React's dangerouslySetInnerHTML API. This rule finds usages of the dangerouslySetInnerHTML API (but not any JSX references). For more info see the react-no-dangerous-html Rule wiki page.
• use-named-parameter Do not reference the arguments object by numerical index; instead, use a named parameter. This rule is similar to JSLint's Use a named parameter rule.

Development

To develop tslint-microsoft-contrib simply clone the repository, install dependencies and run grunt:

git config --global core.autocrlf input
git config --global core.eol lf
git clone [e-mail]:Microsoft/tslint-microsoft-contrib.git
cd tslint-microsoft-contrib
npm install
grunt all

Debug code

If command fails because of file access permissions, prefix it with sudo.

npm install -g node-inspector
node-inspector

In another terminal window run:

# on *nix machines: 
node --debug-brk /usr/local/bin/grunt mochaTest
# on Windows machines: 
node --debug-brk /c/Users/[your alias]/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/grunt-cli/bin/grunt
