Isn't this already a thing?

Any way, I usually do:

var Hello = React.createClass({
  render: function() {
    return (<div>
      <p>Hello {this.props.name}</p>
    </div>)
  }
})

This matches how I use React as well.

It also works for this style, which I've seen being used around:

export const Hello = ({ name} ) => (
  <div>
    <p>Hello {name}</p>
  </div>
)

AFAICT the proposed rule seems to be a de facto standard in the React community.

I'm so used to it that I often even wrap single-line JSX in parens (and indent it as multi-line) but that seems excessive.

Anyone know of anything like this for ES Lint? This is my main pet peeve in JSX! :)
Why would anyone want to not use brackets? :o

i really don't like it... my favorite style is without those parentheses, i think the jsx structure is quite clear by itself, no need to wrap them

i want to "never" it and report error on those wrapped, but there seem not to have an option to do so...

please add one, for example ["error", "never"]?

The necessity of parenthesis depends on whether misaligned JSX tags are allowed: https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react/blob/master/docs/rules/jsx-closing-tag-location.md

The added cognitive complexity of optional wrapping parenthesis is not always needed because JSX must be wrapped in a single parent anyways. The wrapping parenthesis are only useful after return and to maintain alignment in ternaries.

const something = 
  <div>
    <button />
  </div>

const something = () =>
  <div>
    <button />
  </div>

const something = () => {
  console.log('something')

  return (
    <div>
      <button />
    </div>
  )
}

const something = isWhatever
? (
  <div>
    <button />
  </div>
) : (
  <span>
    <button />
  </span>
)

The configuration that I want to go with is:

    "react/jsx-wrap-multilines": ["error", {
      "declaration": "parens-new-line",
      "assignment": "parens-new-line",
      "return": "parens-new-line",
      "arrow": "parens-new-line",
      "condition": "parens-new-line",
      "logical": "ignore",
      "prop": "ignore"
    }]

I think this configuration is the least controversial, best for readability (in my subjective opinion), and seems to match the React community's dominant style. This currently passes the entire test suite. (We don't actually have that many repos with JSX in the suite, though we do have bitmidi.com, webtorrent-desktop, and a few others.)

Here's a list of what is allowed and not allowed

declaration

The following patterns are considered warnings when configured {declaration: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello = <div>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>;

var hello = (<div>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>);

The following patterns are not considered warnings when configured {declaration: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello = (
  <div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>
);

assignment

The following patterns are considered warnings when configured {assignment: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello;
hello = <div>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>;

var hello;
hello = (<div>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>);

The following patterns are not considered warnings when configured {assignment: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello;
hello = (
  <div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>
);

return

The following patterns are considered warnings when configured {return: "parens-new-line"}.

function hello() {
  return <div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>;
}

function hello() {
  return (<div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>);
}

The following patterns are not considered warnings when configured {return: "parens-new-line"}.

function hello() {
  return (
    <div>
      <p>Hello</p>
    </div>
  );
}

arrow

The following patterns are considered warnings when configured {arrow: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello = () => <div>
  <p>World</p>
</div>;

var hello = () => (<div>
  <p>World</p>
</div>);

The following patterns are not considered warnings when configured {arrow: "parens-new-line"}.

var hello = () => (
  <div>
    <p>World</p>
  </div>
);

condition

The following patterns are considered warnings when configured {condition: "parens-new-line"}.

<div>
  {foo ? <div>
      <p>Hello</p>
    </div> : null}
</div>

<div>
  {foo ? (<div>
      <p>Hello</p>
  </div>) : null}
</div>

The following patterns are not considered warnings when configured {condition: "parens-new-line"}.

<div>
  {foo ? (
    <div>
      <p>Hello</p>
    </div>
  ): null}
</div>

logical

We configure nothing for this one. Anything goes.

<div>
  {foo &&
    <div>
      <p>Hello World</p>
    </div>
  }
</div>

<div>
  {foo &&
    (<div>
      <p>Hello World</p>
    </div>)
  }
</div>

<div>
  {foo && (
    <div>
      <p>Hello World</p>
    </div>
  )}
</div>

prop

We configure nothing for this one. Anything goes.

<div foo={<div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>}>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>;

<div foo={(<div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>)}>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>;

<div foo={(
  <div>
    <p>Hello</p>
  </div>
)}>
  <p>Hello</p>
</div>;

Let's ship it in standard 14!

Isn't it true though that parens are not needed in ternaries? You can maintain proper alignment without any parens at all:

condition
  ? <div>
      <img />
    </div>
  : <div />
