godaddy-style

Official GoDaddy JavaScript styleguide. It includes eslint packages for three use-cases and can be used as a standard in any new project.

There are many useful features:

• Standard. No configuration. – Stop worrying about style and focus on your work.
• Modern – Uses modern linting tools like eslint.
• Auto-fix – Auto-fix is enabled by-default through in eslint. Many rules will fix themselves!

This styleguide is used by dozens of product teams at GoDaddy. Have a question or comment? Open an issue!

Installation

Install one of the provided packages depending on the kind of application you are developing:

# Default with ES6 
npm i eslint-config-godaddy --save-dev
 
# OR (ES6 with React rules) 
npm i eslint-config-godaddy-react --save-dev
 
# OR (legacy ES5 with React rules) 
npm i eslint-config-godaddy-es5 --save-dev
 
# OR (ES6 with React and Flow rules) 
npm i eslint-config-godaddy-react-flow --save-dev

Usage

There are two ways to use this styleguide depending on your own tooling preference: directly using pre-included binaries or running eslint yourself with a custom .eslintrc config.

1. Use the pre-included binaries.

These use exactly the configuration defined in the individual eslint-config-godaddy* package with auto-fix enabled automatically.

{
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "eslint-godaddy files/ you/ want-to/ lint/"
  }
}

2. Define your local .eslintrc and run eslint yourself:

module.exports = {
  extends: 'godaddy',
  rules: {
    //
    // Put any rules you wish to override here.
    //
  }
}

The --fix option in eslint is only available as a CLI option. Auto-fix will NOT be enabled unless you run eslint --fix in your package.json.

{
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "eslint --fix files/ you/ want-to/ lint/"
  }
}

FAQ

How do I override a specific rule ?

1. Add a .eslintrc file at the root of your project:

{
  "extends": "godaddy",
  "rules": {
    // Disable the 'max-params' rule
    "max-params": 0
  }
}

2. Add a param to specify the path of your own .eslintrc file in your package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "eslint": "eslint-godaddy -c .eslintrc lib/ test/",
  }
}

How do I contribute?

Fork this repository and submit a pull request.

Proposed modifications to the style guide should modify the files in /dotfiles before running npm run build when submitting a pull request. This repository utilizes the fashion-show module to generate the /dist files to be checked in.

I disagree with a specific rule

Great. We'd love to talk about it. Fork this repository and submit a pull-request.

Help! It's not working for me!

Roadmap

• Add more specific style guidance around React.
• Consider other rules in an eslint only implementation:
  • computed-property-spacing
  • generator-star-spacing
  • semi-spacing
  • block-spacing
• Continue to modularize the eslint rules.
• Translate configuration files into more verbose written documentation.
• Add support for IDE formats (IntelliJ, Webstorm, Atom, Eclipse, Sublime, etc...)
• Never stop improving.
