npm license npm version npm downloads npm downloads npm downloads npm downloads npm downloads Build Status Coverage Status

It can be used in projects using Underscore.js and Lodash's template.

This plugin supports code checking for templates like the examples below.

<div id="<%= id %>" class="<%= (i % 2 == 1 ? ' even': '') %>">
  <div class="grid_1 alpha right">
    <img class="righted" src="<%= profile_image_url %>"/>
  </div>
  <div class="grid_6 omega contents">
    <p><b><a href="/<%= from_user %>"><%= from_user %></a>:</b> <%= text %></p>
  </div>
</div>
<% for ( var i = 0; i < users.length; i++ ) { %>
  <li><a href="<%= users[i].url %>"><%= users[i].name %></a></li>
<% } %>

Features

  • Enable ESLint in Underscore.js and Lodash's templates.
  • You can find issues specific to template tags.
  • Improves readability of HTML templates.
  • For JavaScript (TypeScript) templates, enable ESLint both inside and outside the template tag. (This is an experimental feature)
  • Partial supports for EJS.

Installation

npm install --save-dev eslint eslint-plugin-lodash-template

Documentation

See documents.

Usage

Create .eslintrc.* file to configure rules. See also: http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring.

Example .eslintrc.js:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    // add more generic rulesets here, such as:
    // 'eslint:recommended',
    'plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-html'
  ],
  rules: {
    // override/add rules settings here, such as:
    // 'lodash-template/no-warning-html-comments': 'error'
  }
}

Plugin Option

Suppress no-undef warnings in the template tag

Please set the global variable used in all templates as follows.

.eslintrc.*:

  {
      "settings": {
+         "lodash-template/globals": ["variableName"]
      }
  }

Please write the global comment in the file as follows for the variable to be used with a specific template.

+ <% /* global users */ %>
  <% for ( var i = 0; i < users.length; i++ ) { %>
    <li><a href="<%= users[i].url %>"><%= users[i].name %></a></li>
  <% } %>

Suppress reports for specific rules in template files

Please set as follows.

.eslintrc.*:

  {
      "settings": {
+         "lodash-template/ignoreRules": ["no-undef", "no-tabs"]
      }
  }

The ESLint standard suppression method can also be used by using template tag, as follows.

+ <% /* eslint no-ternary: 0 */ %>

Customize parser

For example, if you set Lodash templateSettings as follows,

_.templateSettings = {
    evaluate:    /{{([\s\S]+?)}}/g,
    interpolate: /{{=([\s\S]+?)}}/g,
    escape:      /{{-([\s\S]+?)}}/g
};

please set parserOptions(ex. .eslintrc.*) as follows.

      parserOptions: {
+         templateSettings: {
+             evaluate:    ["{{", "}}"],
+             interpolate: ["{{=", "}}"],
+             escape:      ["{{-", "}}"],
+         },
      },

For example, to parse like EJS, set as follows,

(If plugin:lodash-template/*** is set in extends, it is automatically applied to the extension .ejs.)

      parserOptions: {
+         templateSettings: {
+             evaluate:    [ ["<%", "<%_"], ["%>", "-%>", "_%>"] ],
+             interpolate: [  "<%-",        ["%>", "-%>", "_%>"] ],
+             escape:      [  "<%=",        ["%>", "-%>", "_%>"] ],
+             comment:     [  "<%#",        ["%>", "-%>", "_%>"] ],
+             literal:     [  "<%%" ],
+         },
      },

(This plugin do not provide complete support for EJS. e.g. the include directive.)

Customize target extensions

Please set .eslintrc.* as follows.

(For example, for EJS.)

+    "overrides": [
+        {
+            "files": ["*.ejs"],
+            "processor": "lodash-template/html"
+        }
+    ]

For JavaScript (TypeScript) Templates

(This is an experimental feature. Also check for known limitations.)

For example if you have a file like below.

/* eslint no-multi-spaces: error */
<% /* eslint lodash-template/no-multi-spaces-in-scriptlet: error */ %>

// if this plugin is not used, a parsing error will occur.
const obj    = <%= JSON.stringify(options     ) %>
//       ^^^^                            ^^^^^ 
//         |                              |
//         |          If you don't use `"plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-script"`,
//         |          only the space after `options` is reported.
//         |
//         + When using `"plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-script"`, the space after `obj` is also reported.

Configuring

Please set .eslintrc.* as follows.

+    "overrides": [
+        {
+            "files": ["**/your/templates/*.js"],
+            "extends": ["plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-script"]
+        }
+    ]

If you do not want to use the included rules, set the details as follows.

    "overrides": [
        {
            "files": ["**/your/templates/*.js"],
-            "extends": ["plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-script"],
+            "extends": ["plugin:lodash-template/base"],
+            "processor": "lodash-template/script",
+            "rules": {
+                "lodash-template/no-invalid-template-interpolation": "error"
+                ...
+            }
        }
    ]

If you want to use it with TypeScript, you need to configure parserOptions.

    "overrides": [
        {
-            "files": ["**/your/templates/*.js"],
+            "files": ["**/your/templates/*.ts"],
+            "parserOptions": {
+                 "parser": "@typescript-eslint/parser",
+                 "sourceType": "module"
+            },
            "extends": ["plugin:lodash-template/recommended-with-script"]
        }
    ]

FAQ

Known Limitations in Script Templates

Due to known limitations in script templates, you may need to rewrite some templates. Otherwise, you may not be able to use this plugin or some rules.

Parsing Error

Interpolation in the script template will try to replace it with an identifier and parse it. If you generate a complex script in interpolation, you may get a parsing error.

👍 The following script can be parsed well.

let <%= idName %> = 42;
export { <%= idName %> };

👎 The following script cannot be parsed well.

<%= 'let ' + idName %> = 42;
export { <%= idName %> };

False Positives in Some Rules

If you use branching in your template, the plugin will generate multiple script ASTs needed to cover all branches. (Then merge the results of validating these ASTs.)
This can confuse some rules and cause false positives.

However, this is necessary to avoid script parsing errors.

e.g.

Template:

const a = 'foo'
<% if (x) { %>
  const b = 1;
<% } else { %>
  const b = 2;
<% } %>

Generated Script 1:

const a = 'foo'

  const b = 1;

Generated Script 2:

const a = 'foo'



  const b = 2;

If we use the following script, it is a parsing error.

const a = 'foo'

  const b = 1;

  const b = 2; // <- Identifier 'b' has already been declared

The plugin also tries to generate scripts using branches that are as consistent as possible.

e.g.

Template:

<% if (x.foo) { %>
  const a = 'x.foo is true'
<% } %>
// ...
<% if (x.foo) { %>
  console.log(a)
<% } else { %>
  // process for x.foo is false
<% } %>

Generated Script 1:

  const a = 'x.foo is true'

// ...

  console.log(a)

Generated Script 2:

// ...



  // process for x.foo is false

However, branching conditions are compared using text, so even logically the same can be confusing.

e.g.

Template:

<% if (x['foo']) { %>
  const a = 'x.foo is true'
<% } %>
// ...
<% if (x.foo) { %>
  console.log(a)
<% } else { %>
  // process for x.foo is false
<% } %>

Generated Script 1:

  const a = 'x.foo is true'

// ...

  console.log(a)

Generated Script 2:

  const a = 'x.foo is true'

// ...



  // process for x.foo is false

This template gets an error 'a' is assigned a value but never used. from the no-unused-vars rule.
