Glob based configuration #3611
Glob based configuration #3611
Comments
I agree with not allowing this in shareable configs, but I think we should support |
As we discussed I really like this @lo1tuma! If I got you right @ilyavolodin you suggested that this should work:
This is exactly what I was already discussing with @lo1tuma. So 2/2 people who commented on this proposal thought this is an important point. Maybe you should add some information in your proposal about this Ah and one very small idea (just to think about it): Maybe it would be better if the configuration enforced an array for Apart from that I will just repeat what I said to you in personal: The Maybe someone else has a great idea on it :). |
I’ve updated the description to clarify that a glob specific configuration works the same as the regular configuration in an
|
I'm uncomfortable with having a difference between shareable and non-shareable configs, as the whole point is to be able to share all your settings. I think configs must all be the same regardless of being shareable or not. |
@nzakas I don't think I agree. Or rather, I understand exactly where you coming from in terms of keeping shareable and non-shareable configs the same, but in my mind, there is a philosophical difference between them. Shareable configs are generic, they are there to setup a skeleton. Personal configs are specific to a project. And file name patterns/folder layout are very specific to projects. |
I agree with @nzakas. Can't it just be bad practice or an issue that developers who write shareable configs be aware of? |
As in - convention over configuration? Honestly I was always against that in OSS. People don't read docs:-) |
Yeah, I mean it seems pretty reasonable to assume that most developers distributing shareable configs will see those potential issues. And honestly they might want that to force directory structure - not saying it's a good idea but it's a potential option that would be taken away otherwise |
I like configuration over convention for some things 👍 @lo1tuma potential name |
Ok, I guess I can buy "taken away" argument. In that case @lo1tuma I would imagine root would be the point |
My point is that you should be able to take a personal config, wrap it in an npm package, and make it a shareable config. That's always been the vision for shareable configs, so anything that gets in the way of that vision is 👎. Also, let's keep the scope of this fairly small for now. Let's just start with specifying rules, globals, and environments for glob patterns. We can always add more capabilities later, but I think this scope provides most of what people are looking for. |
Love it. Inspired by https://gist.github.com/ryanflorence/110d4538bf98694538de ESLint does not yet support glob-based rules, but likely will in v2: eslint/eslint#3611
@lo1tuma, I suddenly have a pressing need for this kind of functionality. Is it something you're still planning to work on? |
@IanVS yes, I’ve already started working on this. The hard thing about this is that I don’t want to break the current in-memory caching during resolving the config for a file. Currently the config for multiple files in the same directory is always the same, that’s why it is cached per directory, but this isn’t true anymore if start merging the glob-pattern based configuration during the resolving phase. |
Can we simplify this to apply to extensions only, rather than full glob patterns? Would that make it simpler? |
@nzakas I can’t really see how that would make it simpler. The configurations for different files in the same directory would still differ. |
Only applying to extensions would not help me. My use case is I have |
Same for me. I have my tests alongside the production code with the pattern |
Hi there, any idea if the feature is still being worked on and if there is a rough estimate about the timeframe? |
Can't speak to timeframe, but work is progressing in #8081. |
@not-an-aardvark 👍 |
This will be especially useful for configuring .spec.js files for Jasmine tests separately from other code. Thank you for your work on this. 👍 |
WOOHOO! one of the longest watched issues I had :) great work everyone ! |
@marcuswestin Thanks, but all the credit goes to @smably and @CrabDude for working on this. 😃 |

1817: Update eslint to the latest version 🚀 r=jniles ## Version **4.1.0** of [eslint](https://github.com/eslint/eslint) just got published. <table> <tr> <th align=left> Dependency </td> <td> eslint </td> </tr> <tr> <th align=left> Current Version </td> <td> 3.19.0 </td> </tr> <tr> <th align=left> Type </td> <td> devDependency </td> </tr> </table> The version **4.1.0** is **not covered** by your **current version range**. Without accepting this pull request your project will work just like it did before. There might be a bunch of new features, fixes and perf improvements that the maintainers worked on for you though. I recommend you look into these changes and try to get onto the latest version of eslint. Given that you have a decent test suite, a passing build is a strong indicator that you can take advantage of these changes by merging the proposed change into your project. Otherwise this branch is a great starting point for you to work on the update. --- <details> <summary>Release Notes</summary> <strong>v4.1.0</strong> <ul> <li><a

Glob based configuration
Goal
Currently ESLint allows you to cascade the configurations based on the directory structure of your project. This approach is not flexible enough if you have files that don’t share the same parent directory but you still want to have a specific ESLint configuration just for those files. This could be solved by specifying a configuration that applies to all files which match a given glob pattern.
How it works
.eslintrc
files.eslintrc
in which they are defined.eslintrc
files, the glob pattern specific configuration will be applied.eslintrc
file.eslintrc
, except that you can’t define nested glob based configurations. That means you can configureglobals
,env
,ecmaFeatures
,rules
,plugins
,extends
andparser
.Note: The glob patterns are NOT used for file resolving / directory traversal.
Example for relative glob patterns
Given the following directory tree:
The config in
app/.eslintrc
defines the glob pattern**/*Spec.js
. This pattern is relative to the base directory ofapp/.eslintrc
. So, this pattern would matchapp/lib/fooSpec.js
andapp/components/barSpec.js
but NOTserver/serverSpec.js
.If you would define the same pattern in the
.eslintrc
file within in theproject-root
folder, it would match all three of the*Spec
files.Configuration Examples
Single pattern
Multiple patterns
As you can see
patterns
could be a string for a single glob pattern or an array if you like to define multiple patterns.Open Questions / Possible Problems

?PS: I’m not happy with the current naming of
"files"
and"patterns"
