eslint-plugin-functional is available as part of the Tidelift Subscription.

Tidelift is working with the maintainers of eslint-plugin-functional and a growing network of open source maintainers to ensure your open source software supply chain meets enterprise standards now and into the future. Learn more.

See our getting started guide.

The following rulesets are made available by this plugin.

Presets:

• Strict (configs.strict)
  Enforce recommended rules designed to strictly enforce functional programming.

• Recommended (configs.recommended)
  Has the same goal as the strict preset but a little more lenient, allowing for functional-like coding styles and nicer integration with non-functional 3rd-party libraries.

• Lite (configs.lite)
  Good if you're new to functional programming or are converting a large codebase.

Categorized:

• Currying (configs.currying)
  JavaScript functions support syntax that is not compatible with curried functions. To enforce currying, this syntax should be prevented.

• No Exceptions (configs.noExceptions)
  Functional programming style does not use run-time exceptions. Instead expressions produces values to indicate errors.

• No Mutations (configs.noMutations)
  Prevent mutating any data as that's not functional

• No Other Paradigms (configs.noOtherParadigms)
  JavaScript is multi-paradigm, allowing not only functional, but object-oriented as well as other programming styles. To promote a functional style, prevent the use of other paradigm styles.

• No Statements (configs.noStatements)
  In functional programming everything is an expression that produces a value. JavaScript has a lot of syntax that is just statements that does not produce a value. That syntax has to be prevented to promote a functional style.

• Stylistic (configs.stylistic)
  Enforce code styles that can be considered to be more functional.

Other:

• All (configs.all)
  Enables all rules defined in this plugin.

• Off (configs.off)
  Disable all rules defined in this plugin.

• Disable Type Checked (configs.disableTypeChecked)
  Disable all rules that require type information.

• External Vanilla Recommended (configs.externalVanillaRecommended)
  Configures recommended vanilla ESLint rules.

• External TypeScript Recommended (configs.externalTypeScriptRecommended)
  Configures recommended TypeScript ESLint rules. Enabling this ruleset will also enable the vanilla one.

The below section gives details on which rules are enabled by each ruleset.

In addition to the above rules, there are a few other rules we recommended.

These rules are what are included in the external recommended rulesets.

• no-var
  Without this rule, it is still possible to create mutable var variables.

• no-param-reassign
  Don't allow function parameters to be reassigned, they should be treated as constants.

• prefer-const
  This rule provides a helpful fixer when converting from an imperative code style to a functional one.

• @typescript-eslint/prefer-readonly
  This rule is helpful when working with classes.

• @typescript-eslint/switch-exhaustiveness-check
  Although our no-conditional-statements rule also performs this check, this rule has a fixer that will implement the unimplemented cases which can be useful.

This project started as a port of tslint-immutable which was originally inspired by eslint-plugin-immutable.
