If you’ve recently been struggling to manage your project with ESLint FlatConfig or the ESLint v9 APIs, I suggest you take a look at the library.

Sheriff release v16

Andrea Pontrandolfo — Sat, 04 Nov 2023 11:44:24 +0000

Sheriff continues his quest to conquer the JS ecosystem.

Sheriff extends support for Astro

This release introduces support for Astro.js, thanks to ota-meshi libraries, eslint-plugin-astro and astro-eslint-parser.

The integration is provided out-of-the-box, meaning nothing has to be configured on the user side. Sheriff will automatically detect Astro projects and run the appropriate rules. All you have to do is upgrade Sheriff to this version.

This integration presented significant challenges, as the pertinent ESLint plugins are still in experimental status and also because this integration provides JSX-relevant ESLint rules inside .astro files, meaning that we are now parsing .astro files (in a Typescript-aware way) and provide Astro and React relevant rules inside them. This has not been trivial.

Sheriff meets Algolia

The Sheriff documentation website has now a full-text search powered by Algolia Docsearch, generously provided for free by the open-source projects sponsorship by Algolia . The documentation is now easier than ever to navigate.

The "Ask AI" feature, instead, didn't make it in this release. There aren't yet solid solutions in this space, for now.

Sheriff integrates Fsecond

Finally, as the last treat, my newest eslint-plugin, fsecond was integrated in Sheriff.

Fsecond adds 2 new rules:

fsecond/prefer-destructured-optionals: enforce placing optional parameters to the end of the function signature as destructured objects
fsecond/valid-event-listener: enforce using a useEventListener utility function instead of addEventListener methods, or, optionally, you can disable that behaviour and the rule will just warn against incorrect usage of addEventListener methods

What's Next

The commitment to improving Sheriff remains strong. Here's a glimpse of what's on the horizon:

Performance Improvements: Potential performance enhancements will be analyzed to ensure that Sheriff runs even smoother, even on lower-end devices.
Website Codebase Update: Plans are in place to update the website to Docusaurus 3.0, modernizing the docs website codebase.
Expanded Library Support: Support for additional libraries is under consideration, with potential candidates for integration including GraphQL, MDX, and Vue.

Conclusion

As always, if you feel like contributing, feel free to propose suggestions or pull-requests. And if you just want to show appreciation, leave a star on Github.

Sheriff is actively dedicated to becoming even more adaptable and feature-rich. Stay tuned for further updates and enhancements!

ESLint-config-sheriff reaches version 14.4.0!

Andrea Pontrandolfo — Thu, 24 Aug 2023 23:24:04 +0000

Hey devs!

I'm thrilled to announce the release of eslint-config-sheriff version 14.4.0!
What’s so special about it, I hear you ask?
This release mark a major milestone for the Sheriff project.
The whole codebase was transitioned in a monorepo and the docs were remade from the ground-up.
Curios about the new changes? Check out the blogpost here: https://www.eslint-config-sheriff.dev/blog/sheriff-reboot.

What’s Sheriff? A little bit of history

Sheriff is a comprehensive and highly opinionated Typescript-first ESLint configuration.
The project started 1 year ago, back in October 2022, emerging from personal needs to have a stable ESLint configuration across all my personal and job-related projects. I was quickly amazed by the immediate community support that it gathered, and it keeps growing!

I truly see Sheriff as a community effort, because it wouldn’t be possible without the efforts of the people that work everyday on ESLint and all the community-maintained ESLint projects out there.

You can learn everything about the project in the brand-new docs, here https://www.eslint-config-sheriff.dev.

Back to the present

Starting from the next major release in v9.0.0, ESLint will officially move to the FlatConfig by default and the eslintrc configs will be fully deprecated.
If you're looking for a quick and easy way to transition to FlatConfig without a hassle, Sheriff has got your back, for all you busy devs out there that don’t have the time to tinker with ESLint configs allday.

Give it a try!
