Enforce boolean attributes notation in JSX (inferno/jsx-boolean-value)

🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option.

When using a boolean attribute in JSX, you can set the attribute value to true or omit the value.

Rule Details

This rule will enforce one or the other to keep consistency in your code.

Rule Options

This rule takes two arguments. If the first argument is "always" then it warns whenever an attribute is missing its value. If "never" then it warns if an attribute has a true value. The default value of this option is "never".

The second argument is optional. If provided, it must be an object. These properties are supported:

First, the "never" and "always" properties are one set. The two properties cannot be set together. "never" must be used when the first argument is "always" and "always" must be used when the first argument is "never". This property’s value must be an array of strings representing prop names.

When the first argument is "never", a boolean "assumeUndefinedIsFalse" may be provided, which defaults to false. When true, an absent boolean prop will be treated as if it were explicitly set to false.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule, when configured with "never", or with "always", { "never": ["personal"] }:

var Hello = <Hello personal={true} />;

Examples of correct code for this rule, when configured with "never", or with "always", { "never": ["personal"] }:

var Hello = <Hello personal />;

When Not To Use It

If you do not want to enforce any style for boolean attributes, then you can disable this rule.
