React specific linting rules for ESLint

# Installation

Install [ESLint](https://www.github.com/eslint/eslint) either locally or globally. (Note that locally, per project, is strongly preferred)

```sh
$ npm install eslint --save-dev
```

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

```sh
$ npm install eslint-plugin-react --save-dev
```

# Configuration

Use [our preset](#recommended) to get reasonable defaults:

```json
  "extends": [
    "eslint:recommended",
    "plugin:react/recommended"
  ]
```

You should also specify settings that will be shared across all the plugin rules. ([More about eslint shared settings](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#adding-shared-settings))

```json5
{
  "settings": {
    "react": {
      "createClass": "createReactClass", // Regex for Component Factory to use,
                                         // default to "createReactClass"
      "pragma": "React",  // Pragma to use, default to "React"
      "version": "detect", // React version. "detect" automatically picks the version you have installed.
                           // You can also use `16.0`, `16.3`, etc, if you want to override the detected value.
                           // default to latest and warns if missing
                           // It will default to "detect" in the future
      "flowVersion": "0.53" // Flow version
    },
    "propWrapperFunctions": [
        // The names of any function used to wrap propTypes, e.g. `forbidExtraProps`. If this isn't set, any propTypes wrapped in a function will be skipped.
        "forbidExtraProps",
        {"property": "freeze", "object": "Object"},
        {"property": "myFavoriteWrapper"}
    ],
    "linkComponents": [
      // Components used as alternatives to <a> for linking, eg. <Link to={ url } />
      "Hyperlink",
      {"name": "Link", "linkAttribute": "to"}
    ]
  }
}
```

If you do not use a preset you will need to specify individual rules and add extra configuration.

Add "react" to the plugins section.

```json
{
  "plugins": [
    "react"
  ]
}
```

Enable JSX support.

With ESLint 2+

```json
{
  "parserOptions": {
    "ecmaFeatures": {
      "jsx": true
    }
  }
}
```

Enable the rules that you would like to use.

```json
  "rules": {
    "react/jsx-uses-react": "error",
    "react/jsx-uses-vars": "error",
  }
```

# Shareable configurations

## Recommended

This plugin exports a `recommended` configuration that enforces React good practices.

To enable this configuration use the `extends` property in your `.eslintrc` config file:

```json
{
  "extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:react/recommended"]
}
```

See [ESLint documentation](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#extending-configuration-files) for more information about extending configuration files.

The rules enabled in this configuration are:

* [react/display-name](docs/rules/display-name.md)
* [react/jsx-key](docs/rules/jsx-key.md)
* [react/jsx-no-comment-textnodes](docs/rules/jsx-no-comment-textnodes.md)
* [react/jsx-no-duplicate-props](docs/rules/jsx-no-duplicate-props.md)
* [react/jsx-no-target-blank](docs/rules/jsx-no-target-blank.md)
* [react/jsx-no-undef](docs/rules/jsx-no-undef.md)
* [react/jsx-uses-react](docs/rules/jsx-uses-react.md)
* [react/jsx-uses-vars](docs/rules/jsx-uses-vars.md)
* [react/no-children-prop](docs/rules/no-children-prop.md)
* [react/no-danger-with-children](docs/rules/no-danger-with-children.md)
* [react/no-deprecated](docs/rules/no-deprecated.md)
* [react/no-direct-mutation-state](docs/rules/no-direct-mutation-state.md)
* [react/no-find-dom-node](docs/rules/no-find-dom-node.md)
* [react/no-is-mounted](docs/rules/no-is-mounted.md)
* [react/no-render-return-value](docs/rules/no-render-return-value.md)
* [react/no-string-refs](docs/rules/no-string-refs.md)
* [react/no-unescaped-entities](docs/rules/no-unescaped-entities.md)
* [react/no-unknown-property](docs/rules/no-unknown-property.md)
* [react/prop-types](docs/rules/prop-types.md)
* [react/react-in-jsx-scope](docs/rules/react-in-jsx-scope.md)
* [react/require-render-return](docs/rules/require-render-return.md)

## All

This plugin also exports an `all` configuration that includes every available rule.
This pairs well with the `eslint:all` rule.

```json
{
  "plugins": [
    "react"
  ],
  "extends": ["eslint:all", "plugin:react/all"]
}
```

**Note**: These configurations will import `eslint-plugin-react` and enable JSX in [parser options](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#specifying-parser-options).
