ESLint 0.6.0 released

by Nicholas C. Zakas - 17 May 2014

We just pushed ESLint 0.6.0, which is a significant release with new features, new rules, and of course, some bug fixes.

Deprecation Notices

  • The 0.6.x ESLint will be the last to support the deprecated JSON format for .eslintignore. This was deprecated in 0.5.1 and will be removed in 0.7.0. Please change your .eslintignore files to the new plain-text format. See #761.

Breaking Changes

  • brace-style now disallows block statements where curlies are on the same line. While not strictly a breaking change, it is a significant enough change to warrant being called out in this way. (#758)
  • Node 0.8.x is no longer officially supported as of 0.6.0. We will no longer accept or fix bugs for Node 0.8.x.

Rules

Configuration

  • Update: You can now use comments to enable/disable rules around certain portions of a file (#305)

CLI

  • Update: Added --rule flag to specify rules on the command line. (#692)
  • Update: Added --force to force ESLint to lint ignored files. Also, you'll now get a warning when ESLint is ignoring files that are explicitly passed on the command line.

Documentation

Build

  • Add linting of Makefile.js. (#870)
  • Add check so that documentation reflects the correct on/off default for each rule (#865)

Upgrades

  • Esprima to 1.2 (fixes #842) (Nicholas C. Zakas)
