ESLint is the most flexible and configurable javascript linter among other javscript linters like JSHint, JSLint etc. It is good practice to have one javascript linter configured in our project, to keep the coding style consistant across the team and to detect some of the errors before runtime.

Here, I am going to show how to configure ESLint in Visual Studio Code editor.

Step 1: Install ESLint Extension for Visual Studio Code

Support for eslint is not directly included in the editor. For that we need to install eslint extension first.

Eslint Visual Studio Code Airbnb

To Install the eslint extension, open command palette (View -> Command Palette.. or cmd+shift+p ) and execute below command:

ext install eslint

(Note: After opening command palette, remove > character if it is there and then execute the above command)

Step 2: Enable ESLint In Your Workspace

In VS Code, there are three level of settings and they are applied in below order.
1. Workspace Setting (Preferences -> Workspace Settings)
2. User Setting (Preferences -> User Settings)
3. Default Setting

Once you have installed eslint extension, add below configuration in your User Setting or Workdpace Setting as
per your preference.

'eslint.enable': true

Step 3: Add ESLint Configuration File

ESLint supports different formats of configuration file. Check possible eslint configuration file formats. Pick anyone and add that file in root directory of your project. Sample configuration file looks as shown below:

.eslintrc.json

Create eslint configuration file by referring eslint configurations and rules as per your preference.

ESLint by default ignores /node_modules/** and /bower_components/**. If you want to ignore any file/directory for linting, you can add them in .eslintignore file.

Install Eslint Visual Studio Code

ESLint is now configured for your project in VS Code Editor. You should be able to see the count of error/warning for all the opened files, in bottom bar of the VS Code.

Step 4 (Optional): Execute ESLint For Whole Project

By default, VS Code will show errors/warnings for only files which are opened in VS Code. If you close all the files, the count of error/warning will be reduced to 0.

So if you are adding ESLint to any existing project, you won’t be able to see the total errors/warnings of the project in VS Code. You need to manualy open each file to check if it has any error.

To solve this issue, we can configure a task in VS Code, which will execute eslint on each javascript file of the project and updates the error/warning count in bottom bar of VS Code and by clicking on that counts, we can navigate to the files having errors/warnings.

Create ESLint Task

To create a task, open command palette (View -> Command Palette..) and select Tasks: Configure Task Runner.

Add eslint task as shown below:

tasks.json

Eslint For Visual Studio Code

Here, in above task, we are executing eslint . command on eslint cli and using $eslint-stylish problem matcher to map the output of the cli command with VS Code Editor.

ESLint cli provides may different output formats. The default output format is stylish

Turn Off Eslint Vs Code

Note that, VS Code provides only “$eslint-stylish” and “$eslint-compact” problem-matcher out of the box. If you set output format other than compact or stylish, you need to create a problem matcher yourself. Check how to create your own problem matcher here and more information of tasks in VS Code here.

Now, execute the eslint task which we configured just now, to see all the errors/warnings of the project.

Run ESLint Task

Eslint Visual Studio Code

To execute the task, open the command palette and execute below command:
task eslint

After execution of the task, count of error/warning will be updated if any.

You can navigate to the files having errors/warnings by clicking on the count at bottom bar or by shortcut cmd+shift+m. You can filter the file list by entering filename after ! character as shown below:
