## 💿 Install & Usage
```sh
npm install --save-dev eslint eslint-plugin-n
```
| Version | Supported Node.js | Supported ESLint Version | Status |
|---------|-------------------|---------------------------|--------|
| 17.x | `^18.18.0 \|\| ^20.9.0 \|\| >=21.1.0` | `>=8.23.0` | 🏃♂️actively maintained |
| 16.x | `>=16.0.0` | `>=7.0.0` | ⚠️EOL |
| 15.x | `>=12.22.0` | `>=7.0.0` | ⚠️EOL |
**Note:** It recommends a use of [the "engines" field of package.json](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#engines). The "engines" field is used by `n/no-unsupported-features/*` rules.
### [`eslint.config.js`](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/configuration-files-new) (requires eslint>=v8.23.0)
```js
const nodePlugin = require("eslint-plugin-n")
module.exports = [
nodePlugin.configs["flat/recommended-script"],
{
rules: {
"n/exports-style": ["error", "module.exports"]
}
}
]
```
To setup without the recommended configs, you'll need to add the plugin:
```js
const nodePlugin = require("eslint-plugin-n")
module.exports = [
{
plugins: {n: nodePlugin},
rules: {
"n/exports-style": ["error", "module.exports"]
}
}
]
```
### **[.eslintrc.json](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/configuration-files)** (legacy example)
```jsonc
{
"extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:n/recommended"],
"parserOptions": {
"ecmaVersion": 2021
},
"rules": {
"n/exports-style": ["error", "module.exports"]
}
}
```
To setup without the recommended rules you'll need to add the plugin:
```jsonc
{
"parserOptions": {
"ecmaVersion": 2021
},
"plugins": ["n"],
"rules": {
"n/exports-style": ["error", "module.exports"]
}
}
```
**package.json** (An example)
```json
{
"name": "your-module",
"version": "1.0.0",
"type": "commonjs",
"engines": {
"node": ">=8.10.0"
}
}
```
### Configured Node.js version range
The rules get the supported Node.js version range from the following, falling back to the next if unspecified:
1. Rule configuration `version`
2. ESLint [shared setting](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring.html#adding-shared-settings) `node.version`
3. `package.json` [`engines`] field
4. `>=16.0.0`
If you omit the [engines] field, this rule chooses `>=16.0.0` as the configured Node.js version since `16` is the maintained lts (see also [Node.js Release Working Group](https://github.com/nodejs/Release#readme)).
For Node.js packages, using the [`engines`] field is recommended because it's the official way to indicate support:
```json
{
"name": "your-module",
"version": "1.0.0",
"engines": {
"node": ">=16.0.0"
}
}
```
For [Shareable Configs](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/developer-guide/shareable-configs) or packages with a different development environment (e.g. pre-compiled, web package, etc.), you can configure ESLint with `settings.node.version` to specify support.

## 🔧 Configs
| | Name |
| :- | :------------------- |
| 🟢 | `recommended-module` |
| ✅ | `recommended-script` |
About each config:
- `recommended`: Considers both CommonJS and ES Modules. If [`"type":"module"` field](https://medium.com/@nodejs/announcing-a-new-experimental-modules-1be8d2d6c2ff#b023) existed in package.json then it considers files as ES Modules. Otherwise it considers files as CommonJS. In addition, it considers `*.mjs` files as ES Modules and `*.cjs` files as CommonJS.
- `recommended-module`: Considers all files as ES Modules.
- `recommended-script`: Considers all files as CommonJS.
These preset configs:
- enable [no-process-exit](http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-process-exit) rule because [the official document](https://nodejs.org/api/process.html#process_process_exit_code) does not recommend a use of `process.exit()`.
- enable plugin rules indicated by emojis in the [rules table](#-rules).
- add `{ecmaVersion: 2021}` and etc into `parserOptions`.
- add proper globals into `globals`.
- add this plugin into `plugins`.
## 👫 FAQ
- Q: The `no-missing-import` / `no-missing-require` rules don't work with nested folders in SublimeLinter-eslint
- A: See [context.getFilename() in rule returns relative path](https://github.com/roadhump/SublimeLinter-eslint#contextgetfilename-in-rule-returns-relative-path) in the SublimeLinter-eslint FAQ.
- Q: How to use the flat eslint config with mixed commonjs and es modules?
- A: You can use the new exported flat config `flat/mixed-esm-and-cjs`, an example:
```js
const nodePlugin = require("eslint-plugin-n");
module.exports = [
...nodePlugin.configs["flat/mixed-esm-and-cjs"],
{
rules: {
"n/exports-style": ["error", "module.exports"],
},
},
]
```
