eslint-plugin-import-lite

library0.6.0jsnpmunverified

A lightweight ESLint plugin for import/export linting that ports useful rules from eslint-plugin-import-x without requiring a resolver or heavy dependencies. Current stable version 0.6.0 supports ESLint 9 and 10, requires Node >=18.18, and ships zero runtime dependencies. Key differentiators: no binary resolver, no Babel/Flow support, purely ESLint flat config, TypeScript types included. Released under MIT, with monthly updates since initial release in 2025. Ideal for users of @antfu/eslint-config who want import rules without resolver overhead.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

plugin

✓ import plugin from 'eslint-plugin-import-lite'

✗ const plugin = require('eslint-plugin-import-lite')

ESM-only package, exports default object. For flat config, use spread: ...plugin.configs.recommended

rules

✓ import { rules } from 'eslint-plugin-import-lite'

✗ const { rules } = require('eslint-plugin-import-lite')

Named export of rules map, also ESM-only.

configs

✓ import { configs } from 'eslint-plugin-import-lite'

Contains recommended and all configs as flat config arrays.

Example ESLint flat configuration enabling the recommended rules from eslint-plugin-import-lite.

// eslint.config.js import plugin from 'eslint-plugin-import-lite'; export default [ ...plugin.configs.recommended, // Override rules if needed { rules: { 'import-lite/first': 'error', 'import-lite/no-default-export': 'warn', }, }, ];

Debug

Known issues

breakingv0.3.0 renames options for 'consistent-type-specifier-style'

fix

Update rule options to match new naming: preferAutomatic -> preferPreferAutomatic (check docs).

affects: >=0.3.0 <0.3.0

gotchaPlugin is ESM-only; requires Node >=18.18 and ESLint flat config (no .eslintrc).

fix

Use import syntax and flat config. Switch to module type or use .mjs extension.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaNo resolver support – rules that need module resolution (e.g., 'no-unresolved') are not included.

fix

Use eslint-plugin-import-x or configure a resolver separately if needed.

affects: >=0.0.0

deprecatedDropped Babel and Flow support since v0.1.0

fix

Migrate TypeScript/JavaScript code away from Babel/Flow-specific syntax.

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module ...

Package is ESM-only; CommonJS require() fails.

fix

Use import syntax, ensure parent package is ESM, or use dynamic import().

Failed to load plugin 'import-lite': Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-import-lite'

Plugin not installed or not in node_modules.

fix

Run: npm install eslint-plugin-import-lite --save-dev

Invalid config: "import-lite/first" has been removed.

Trying to use a rule that was not ported or removed in later version.

fix

Check src/rules directory for available rules; only 9 rules are implemented.
