JSDoc linting rules for ESLint.

Package Exports

  • eslint-plugin-jsdoc

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (eslint-plugin-jsdoc) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Installation

Install ESLint either locally or globally.

npm install eslint

If you have installed ESLint globally, you have to install JSDoc plugin globally too. Otherwise, install it locally.

npm install eslint-plugin-jsdoc

Configuration

Add plugins section and specify eslint-plugin-jsdoc as a plugin.

{
    "plugins": [
        "jsdoc"
    ]
}

Finally, enable all of the rules that you would like to use.

{
    "rules": {
        "jsdoc/check-param-names": 1,
        "jsdoc/check-tag-names": 1,
        "jsdoc/check-types": 1,
        "jsdoc/newline-after-description": 1,

 * @param Foo.Bar
 */
function quux (foo) {

}

function quux () {

}

/**
 * @foo
 */
function quux () {

}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

}

check-types

Reports invalid types.

Ensures that case of native types is the same as in this list:
