library2.2.0jsnpmunverified

ESLint plugin (v2.2.0, active development) that lints package.json dependencies for issues like missing or mismatched engines, deprecated packages, or improper provenance. Requires Node >= 20.19 and ESLint >= 9.38. Released as needed with minor and patch updates. Differentiated from other ESLint plugins by focusing specifically on dependency metadata integrity rather than code style or security scanning.

Verified usage

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

default

✓ import nodeDependenciesPlugin from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'

✗ const nodeDependenciesPlugin = require('eslint-plugin-node-dependencies')

ESM-only since v2.0.0; CommonJS require() will fail.

rules

✓ import { rules } from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'

✗ import plugin from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'; const { rules } = plugin

Named export 'rules' is available directly; do not destructure from default.

configs

✓ import { configs } from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'

✗ import plugin from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'; const { configs } = plugin

Named export 'configs' provides flat configs; use plugin.configs.recommended in flat config.

Sets up the recommended rules for eslint-plugin-node-dependencies in an ESLint flat config file.

import nodeDependenciesPlugin from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'; export default [ ...nodeDependenciesPlugin.configs.recommended, ];

Debug

Known issues

breakingv2.0.0 dropped support for legacy (eslintrc) config. Only flat config is supported.

fix

Migrate from .eslintrc.* to eslint.config.js using flat config format.

affects: >=2.0.0

breakingRequires Node.js ^20.19.0 || ^22.13.0 || >=24. Older Node versions are incompatible.

fix

Update Node.js to ^20.19.0, ^22.13.0, or >=24.

affects: >=2.0.0

breakingRequires ESLint >=9.38.0. ESLint v8 and older are not supported.

fix

Upgrade ESLint to v9.38.0 or later.

affects: >=2.0.0

gotchaThe plugin is experimental; rules may change without major version bump.

fix

Pin exact version in package.json and test upgrades thoroughly.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe package uses eslint-json-compat-utils for compatibility with eslint/json, which may introduce additional behavior for JSON files.

fix

Ensure eslint/json is installed if using JSON-related features.

affects: >=2.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies'

Package not installed or not in node_modules.

fix

npm install --save-dev eslint-plugin-node-dependencies

TypeError: plugin.configs is not a function

Using legacy eslintrc config or incorrect import style.

fix

Use import nodeDependenciesPlugin from 'eslint-plugin-node-dependencies' and spread plugin.configs.recommended.

Error: Failed to load config 'plugin:node-dependencies/recommended'

Legacy eslintrc config format used; plugin requires flat config.

fix

Switch to eslint.config.js with flat config; do not use 'extends' with plugin: prefix.

Error: ESLint configuration is invalid: - Unexpected top-level property "rules". Did you mean to use plugins?

Misconfigured flat config: placing rules directly at top level instead of inside a config object.

fix

Wrap rules in an object with 'plugins' and 'rules' properties.
