yaml-eslint-parser

yaml-eslint-parser

A YAML parser that produces output compatible with ESLint.

This parser is backed by excellent yaml and yaml-unist-parser packages.

Installation

npm install --save-dev yaml-eslint-parser

Usage

Configuration

Use .eslintrc.* file to configure parser. See also: https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring.

Example .eslintrc.js:

module.exports = {
    "overrides": [
        {
            "files": ["*.yaml", "*.yml"],
            "parser": "yaml-eslint-parser"
        }
    ]
}

Running ESLint from the command line

If you want to run eslint from the command line, make sure you include the .yaml extension using the --ext option or a glob pattern, because ESLint targets only .js files by default.

Examples:

eslint --ext .js,.yaml,.yml src
eslint "src/**/*.{js,yaml,yml}"

Editor Integrations

Visual Studio Code

Use the dbaeumer.vscode-eslint extension that Microsoft provides officially.

You have to configure the eslint.validate option of the extension to check .yaml files, because the extension targets only *.js or *.jsx files by default.

Example .vscode/settings.json:

{
  "eslint.validate": [
    "javascript",
    "javascriptreact",
    "yaml"
  ]
}
