eslint-override-formatter

ESLint formatter that outputs rule overrides to disable any file with an existing failure.

TL;DR

This formatter outputs a set of ESLint overrides that disable each rule for each file that it fails.

This is useful when increasing lint requirements for an existing code base.

How to install

If you're using yarn just run

yarn add -D eslint-formatter-overrides

otherwise with npm run

npm i --save-dev eslint-formatter-overrides

How to use

When you run ESLint just specify eslint-formatter-overrides as the formatter:

eslint -f overrides [file|dir|glob]*

or if you use an older version of ESLint:

eslint -f node_modules/eslint-formatter-overrides [file|dir|glob]*

See http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/command-line-interface#-f---format

Overriding Rules

The formatter will output the following:

{
    "overrides": [{
        "rules": {
            "comma-spacing": "off"
        },
        "files": [
            "failing-file.js"
        ]
    }]
}
