apply-consistent-blocks

A block statement is used to group zero or more statements. The block is delimited by a pair of braces ("curly braces") and contains a list of zero or more statements and declarations.

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (a > 3) {
    m();
}

if (a > 3)
    b = 5;
else {
    b = 6;
}

if (a > 3)
    b = 5;
else {
    b = 6;
    fn();
}

✅ Example of correct code

if (a > 3)
    m();

if (a > 3)
    b = 5;
else
    b = 6;

if (a > 3) {
    b = 5;
} else {
    b = 6;
    fn();
}

apply-comparison-order

The result of evaluating an equality operator is always of type boolean based on whether the comparison is true.

(c) MDN

Checkout it 🐊Putout Editor.

❌ Example of incorrect code

3 === a;
3 < b;

✅ Example of correct code

a === 3;
b > 3;

apply-if

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (2 > 3)
    ;

alert();

✅ Example of correct code

if (2 > 3)
    alert();

add-return

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (a)
    false;

✅ Example of correct code

if (a)
    return false;

convert-comparison-to-boolean

Strict equality compares two values for equality. Neither value is implicitly converted to some other value before being compared. If the values have different types, the values are considered unequal.

(c) MDN

❌ Example of incorrect code

const t = 2 < 3;

✅ Example of correct code

const t = false;

convert-equal-to-strict-equal

The strict equality operator (===) checks whether its two operands are equal, returning a Boolean result. Unlike the equality operator (==), the strict equality operator always considers operands of different types to be different.

(c) MDN

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (a == b) {}

✅ Example of correct code

if (a === b) {}

evaluate

The if statement executes a statement if a specified condition is truthy. If the condition is falsy, another statement can be executed.

(c) MDN

❌ Example of incorrect code

const a = [];
const c = a;

if (a)
    console.log(a);

✅ Example of correct code

const a = [];
const c = a;

console.log(a);

remove-boolean

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (a === true)
    alert();

✅ Example of correct code

if (a)
    alert();

remove-constant

❌ Example of incorrect code

function hi(a) {
    if (2 < 3) {
        console.log('hello');
        console.log('world');
    }
}

✅ Example of correct code

function hi(b) {
    console.log('hello');
    console.log('world');
}

remove-zero

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (b === 0) {}

if (b !== 0) {}

✅ Example of correct code

if (!b) {}

if (b) {}

simplify

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (zone?.tooltipCallback)
    zone.tooltipCallback(e);

if (a)
    alert('hello');
else
    alert('hello');

✅ Example of correct code

zone?.tooltipCallback(e);

alert('hello');

merge-if-statements

The if statement executes a statement if a specified condition is truthy.

(c) MDN

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (a > b)
    if (b < c)
        console.log('hello');

✅ Example of correct code

if (a > b && b < c)
    console.log('hello');

remove-useless-else

You can skip the else block if your if block always executes a return statement, it makes code a lot easier to read.

(c) no else return

Remove useless else before:

• return;
• continue;
• break;

❌ Example of incorrect code

if (x)
    return;
else
    console.log();

✅ Example of correct code

if (x)
    return;

console.log();

remove-same-values-condition"

Checkout in 🐊Putout Editor.

❌ Example of incorrect code

for (const [i, el] of entries(elements)) {
    if (el !== path)
        continue;
    
    if (!Number(i) && n) {
        path.parentPath.node.elements[i] = null;
        break;
    }
    
    if (el === path) {
        remove(path);
        break;
    }
}

✅ Example of correct code

for (const [i, el] of entries(elements)) {
    if (el !== path)
        continue;
    
    if (!Number(i) && n) {
        path.parentPath.node.elements[i] = null;
        break;
    }
    
    remove(path);
}
