Rule: whitespace

Enforces whitespace style conventions.

Rationale

Helps maintain a readable, consistent style in your codebase.

Config

Seven arguments may be optionally provided:

  • "check-branch" checks branching statements (if/else/for/while) are followed by whitespace.
  • "check-decl"checks that variable declarations have whitespace around the equals token.
  • "check-operator" checks for whitespace around operator tokens.
  • "check-module" checks for whitespace in import & export statements.
  • "check-separator" checks for whitespace after separator tokens (,/;).
  • "check-type" checks for whitespace before a variable type specification.
  • "check-typecast" checks for whitespace between a typecast and its target.
