linter-eslint-redux

ESLint linter provider with bundled v8 and v9 support. Uses project-installed ESLint when available, falls back to bundled version.

Features

• Project ESLint first: uses ESLint from your project's node_modules if installed.
• Bundled fallback: includes ESLint v8 and v9, no global install needed.
• Multi-project support: each project in workspace uses its own ESLint independently.
• Silent mode: if no ESLint config is found, the package silently does nothing.
• Ignore support: respects .eslintignore files.
• Precise highlighting: token-level range highlighting for lint messages.
• Auto-fix: supports fix suggestions from ESLint rules.

Installation

To install linter-eslint-redux search for linter-eslint-redux in the Install pane of the Pulsar settings or run ppm install linter-eslint-redux. Alternatively, you can run ppm install asiloisad/pulsar-linter-eslint-redux to install a package directly from the GitHub repository.

Plugins

If your project uses TypeScript, React, or other plugins, install ESLint locally:

npm install eslint @typescript-eslint/parser @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin

The bundled ESLint is minimal and intended for basic linting only (no plugins).

How It Works

1. Project ESLint: First checks for ESLint in your project's node_modules/eslint.
2. Bundled fallback: If no project ESLint found, tries bundled v8, then v9.
3. Silent skip: If no ESLint config found (tried both versions), silently skips the project.

Caching: ESLint resolution and config detection happen on first lint and are cached per project. Use linter-eslint-redux:reload to clear the cache and re-detect (e.g., after installing ESLint or adding a config file).

Commands

Commands available in atom-workspace:

• linter-eslint-redux:reload: reset the ESLint engine cache and re-detect,
• linter-eslint-redux:lint-project: lint all files in the project.

Troubleshooting

Enable Debug Mode in settings and open the developer console (View → Developer → Toggle Developer Tools).

Project ESLint found:

[linter-eslint-redux] Project: C:\projects\my-app
[linter-eslint-redux] Project ESLint found: v9.0.0
[linter-eslint-redux] Path: C:\projects\my-app\node_modules\eslint

Using bundled ESLint:

[linter-eslint-redux] Project: C:\projects\my-app
[linter-eslint-redux] Project ESLint not found: No eslint in project node_modules
[linter-eslint-redux] Using bundled ESLint: bundled-v8, v8.57.1

No config found:

[linter-eslint-redux] No ESLint config found (tried both v8 and v9), skipping project

Example Configs

ESLint v8 (.eslintrc.js):

module.exports = {
  env: { browser: true, es2021: true, node: true },
  extends: "eslint:recommended",
  parserOptions: { ecmaVersion: "latest", sourceType: "module" },
  rules: {},
};

ESLint v9 (eslint.config.js):

const js = require("@eslint/js");

module.exports = [
  js.configs.recommended,
  {
    languageOptions: {
      ecmaVersion: "latest",
      sourceType: "module",
      globals: { console: "readonly" },
    },
    rules: {},
  },
];
