NPM

tslint-rules

A set of custom TSLint rules.

Usage

Install from npm to your devDependencies:

npm install --save-dev custom-tslint-rules

Configure tslint to use the custom-tslint-rules folder:

Add the following path to the rulesDirectory setting in your tslint.json file:

{
   "rulesDirectory": [
     "node_modules/custom-tslint-rules/dist"
   ],
   "rules": {
     ...
   }
}

Now configure some of the new rules.

Available Rules

import-barrels

Enforces usage of barrels (`index.ts`) when importing from a directory that has a barrel file.

Rationale:

Allows directories that contain multiple modules to be handled as a single module with a single public interface and opaque inner structure.

This rule works only for ES2015 module syntax import statements and checks only relative module paths.

Usage:

"import-barrels": [
  true,
  {"noExplicitBarrels": false, "fileExtensions": ["ts", "js"]}
]

Options:

An argument object may be optionally provided, with the following properties:

  • noExplicitBarrels = false: disallows usage of explicitly named barrels in import statements (import foo from './foo/index')
  • fileExtensions = ['ts', 'js']: uses the provided file extensions for module and barrel file lookup
  • fixWithExplicitBarrelImport: uses the provided string to replace non-barrel imports in --fix mode (i.e. when set to 'index', import foo from './foo/some-module' becomes import foo from './foo/index')

jasmine-no-lambda-expression-callbacks

Disallows usage of ES6-style lambda expressions as callbacks to Jasmine BDD functions.

Rationale:

Lambda expressions don't create lexical this bindings in order for this bindings from outer function scopes to be visible inside of lambda expressions. This beats Jasmine's own system of managing shared state by passing in a dictionary object as this reference to the user-provided callbacks to take over the memory management from the JavaScript VM to prevent memory leaks during test runs.

This rule will also check for cases where a call to a function is made with a lambda expression parameter instead of passing a lambda expression directly as callback to support Angular 2 test style:

beforeEach(async(() => {
  ...
}));

it('something', inject([Service], (service) => {
  ...
}))

Usage:

"jasmine-no-lambda-expression-callbacks": true

Options:

Not configurable.
