eslint-plugin-unicorn Coverage Status npm version

Unicorn

More than 100 powerful ESLint rules

You might want to check out XO, which includes this plugin.

Propose or contribute a new rule ➡

Install

npm install --save-dev eslint eslint-plugin-unicorn

Usage (eslint.config.js)

Requires ESLint >=8.56.0.

Use a preset config or configure each rule in eslint.config.js.

If you don't use the preset, ensure you use the same languageOptions config as below.

ES Module (Recommended)

import eslintPluginUnicorn from 'eslint-plugin-unicorn';
import globals from 'globals';

export default [
	{
		languageOptions: {
			globals: globals.builtin,
		},
		plugins: {
			unicorn: eslintPluginUnicorn,
		},
		rules: {
			'unicorn/better-regex': 'error',
			'unicorn/…': 'error',
		},
	},
	// …
];

CommonJS

'use strict';
const eslintPluginUnicorn = require('eslint-plugin-unicorn');
const globals = require('globals');

module.exports = [
	{
		languageOptions: {
			globals: globals.builtin,
		},
		plugins: {
			unicorn: eslintPluginUnicorn,
		},
		rules: {
			'unicorn/better-regex': 'error',
			'unicorn/…': 'error',
		},
	},
	// …
];

Usage (legacy: .eslintrc.* or package.json)

Use a preset config or configure each rule in package.json.

If you don't use the preset, ensure you use the same env and parserOptions config as below.

{
	"name": "my-awesome-project",
	"eslintConfig": {
		"env": {
			"es2024": true
		},
		"parserOptions": {
			"ecmaVersion": "latest",
			"sourceType": "module"
		},
		"plugins": [
			"unicorn"
		],
		"rules": {
			"unicorn/better-regex": "error",
			"unicorn/…": "error"
