This project follows Semantic Versioning. Due to the nature of Biome as a toolchain, it can be unclear what changes are considered major, minor, or patch. Read our guidelines to categorize a change.
New entries must be placed in a section entitled Unreleased
.
Read our guidelines for writing a good changelog entry.
- Fix the command
format
, now it returns a non-zero exit code when if there pending diffs. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Fix #639 by ignoring unused TypeScript's mapped key. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix #565 by handling several
infer
with the same name in extends clauses of TypeScript's conditional types. Contributed by @Conaclos -

Add support for logging. By default, Biome doesn't log anything other than diagnostics. Logging can be enabled with the new option
--log-level
:biome format --log-level=info ./src
There are four different levels of logging, from the most verbose to the least verbose:
debug
,info
,warn
anderror
. Here's how anINFO
log will look like:2023-10-05T08:27:01.954727Z INFO Analyze file ./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx at crates/biome_service/src/file_handlers/javascript.rs:298 on biome::worker_5 in Pulling diagnostics with categories: RuleCategories(SYNTAX) in Processes formatting with path: "./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" in Process check with path: "./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx"
You can customize how the log will look like with a new option
--log-kind
. The supported kinds are:pretty
,compact
andjson
.pretty
is the default logging. Here's how acompact
log will look like:2023-10-05T08:29:04.864247Z INFO biome::worker_2 Process check:Processes linting:Pulling diagnostics: crates/biome_service/src/file_handlers/javascript.rs: Analyze file ./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" categories=RuleCategories(LINT) 2023-10-05T08:29:04.864290Z INFO biome::worker_7 Process check:Processes formatting: crates/biome_service/src/file_handlers/javascript.rs: Format file ./website/src/playground/components/Tabs.tsx path="./website/src/playground/components/Tabs.tsx" path="./website/src/playground/components/Tabs.tsx" 2023-10-05T08:29:04.879332Z INFO biome::worker_2 Process check:Processes formatting:Pulling diagnostics: crates/biome_service/src/file_handlers/javascript.rs: Analyze file ./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" categories=RuleCategories(SYNTAX) 2023-10-05T08:29:04.879383Z INFO biome::worker_2 Process check:Processes formatting: crates/biome_service/src/file_handlers/javascript.rs: Format file ./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx" path="./website/src/playground/components/Resizable.tsx"
- Deprecated the environment variable
ROME_BINARY
. UseBIOME_BINARY
instead. Contributed by @ematipico - Biome doesn't check anymore the presence of the
.git
folder when VCS support is enabled. Contributed by @ematipico biome rage
doesn't print the logs of the daemon, usebiome rage --daemon-logs
to print them. Contributed by @unvalley
-
Add option
formatter.indentWidth
, and deprecated the optionformatter.indentSize
. Contributed by @ematipico -
Add option
javascript.formatter.indentWidth
, and deprecated the optionjavascript.formatter.indentSize
. Contributed by @ematipico -
Add option
json.formatter.indentWidth
, and deprecated the optionjson.formatter.indentSize
. Contributed by @ematipico -
Add option
include
to multiple sections of the configurationfiles.include
;formatter.include
;linter.include
;organizeImports.include
; Wheninclude
andignore
are both specified,ignore
takes precedence overinclude
-
Add option
overrides
, where users can modify the behaviour of the tools for certain files or paths.For example, it's possible to modify the formatter
lineWidth
, and evenquoteStyle
for certain files that are included in glob pathgenerated/**
:{ "formatter": { "lineWidth": 100 }, "overrides": [ { "include": ["generated/**"], "formatter": { "lineWidth": 160 }, "javascript": { "formatter": { "quoteStyle": "single" } } } ] }
Or, you can disable certain rules for certain path, and disable the linter for other paths:
{ "linter": { "enabled": true, "rules": { "recommended": true } }, "overrides": [ { "include": ["lib/**"], "linter": { "rules": { "suspicious": { "noDebugger": "off" } } } }, { "include": ["shims/**"], "linter": { "enabled": false } } ] }
- Fix #343,
extends
was incorrectly applied to thebiome.json
file. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Fix #404. Biome intellij plugin now works on Windows. Contributed by @victor-teles
-
Fix #402. Biome
format
on intellij plugin now recognize biome.json. Contributed by @victor-teles

The following rules are now recommended:
-
Add noEmptyCharacterClassInRegex rule. The rule reports empty character classes and empty negated character classes in regular expression literals. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Add noMisleadingInstantiator rule. The rule reports the misleading use of the
new
andconstructor
methods. Contributed by @unvalley -
Add noUselessElse rule. The rule reports
else
clauses that can be omitted because theirif
branches break. Contributed by @Conaclos -
Add noUnusedImports rule. The rule reports unused imports and suggests to remove them. Contributed by @Conaclos
noUnusedVariables reports also unused imports, but don't suggest their removal. Once noUnusedImports stabilized, noUnusedVariables will not report unused imports.
-
Add useShorthandAssign rule. The rule enforce use of shorthand operators that combine variable assignment and some simple mathematical operations. For example, x = x + 4 can be shortened to x += 4. Contributed by @victor-teles
-
Add useAsConstAssertion rule. The rule enforce use of
as const
assertion to infer literal types. Contributed by @unvalley -
Add noMisrefactoredShorthandAssign rule. The rule reports shorthand assigns when variable appears on both sides. For example
x += x + b
Contributed by @victor-teles -
Add noApproximativeNumericConstant rule. Contributed by @nikeee
-
Add noInteractiveElementToNoninteractiveRole rule. The rule enforces the non-interactive ARIA roles are not assigned to interactive HTML elements. Contributed by @nissy-dev

tabIndex
is assigned to non-interactive HTML elements witharia-activedescendant
. Contributed by @nissy-dev -
Add noUselessLoneBlockStatements rule. The rule reports standalone blocks that don't include any lexical scoped declaration. Contributed by @emab
-
Add noInvalidNewBuiltin rule. The rule reports use of
new
onSymbol
andBigInt
. Contributed by @lucasweng
-
The following rules have now safe code fixes:
-
noAccumulatingSpread makes more check in order to reduce potential false positives. Contributed by @Vivalldi
-
noConstAssign now provides an unsafe code fix that replaces
const
withlet
. Contributed by @vasucp1207 -
noExcessiveComplexity default complexity threshold is now
15
. Contributed by @arendjr -
noPositiveTabindexValue now provides an unsafe code fix that set to
0
the tab index. Contributed by @vasucp1207 -
noUnusedLabels no longer reports unbreakable labeled statements. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUnusedVariables now reports unused TypeScript's type parameters. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
useAnchorContent now provides an unsafe code fix that removes the `aria-hidden`` attribute. Contributed by @vasucp1207

-
Fix #243 a false positive case where the incorrect scope was defined for the
infer
type. in rule noUndeclaredVariables. Contributed by @denbezrukov -
Fix #322, now noSelfAssign correctly handles literals inside call expressions.
-
Changed how noSelfAssign behaves. The rule is not triggered anymore on function calls. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Enhance diagnostic for infer type handling in the parser. The 'infer' keyword can only be utilized within the 'extends' clause of a conditional type. Using it outside of this context will result in an error. Ensure that any type declarations using 'infer' are correctly placed within the conditional type structure to avoid parsing issues. Contributed by @denbezrukov
-
Add support for parsing trailing commas inside JSON files:
{ "json": { "parser": { "allowTrailingCommas": true } } }
Contributed by @nissy-dev
- Fix a condition where import sorting wasn't applied when running

New rules are incubated in the nursery group. Once stable, we promote them to a stable group. The following rules are promoted:
- a11y/noAriaUnsupportedElements
- a11y/noNoninteractiveTabindex
- a11y/noRedundantRoles
- a11y/useValidAriaValues
- complexity/noBannedTypes
- complexity/noStaticOnlyClass
- complexity/noUselessEmptyExport
- complexity/noUselessThisAlias
- correctness/noConstantCondition
- correctness/noNonoctalDecimalEscape
- correctness/noSelfAssign
- style/useLiteralEnumMembers
- style/useNamingConvention
- suspicious/noControlCharactersInRegex
- suspicious/noUnsafeDeclarationMerging
- suspicious/useGetterReturn
- Add noConfusingVoidType rule. The rule reports the unusual use of the
void
type. Contributed by @shulandmimi
-
Remove noConfusingArrow.
Code formatters, such as prettier and Biome, always adds parentheses around the parameter or the body of an arrow function. This makes the rule useless.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noFallthroughSwitchClause now relies on control flow analysis to report most of switch clause fallthrough. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noAssignInExpressions no longer suggest code fixes. Most of the time the suggestion didn't match users' expectations. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUselessConstructor no longer emits safe code fixes. Contributed by @Conaclos
All code fixes are now emitted as unsafe code fixes. Removing a constructor can change the behavior of a program.
-
useCollapsedElseIf now only provides safe code fixes. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUnusedVariables now reports more cases.
The rule is now able to ignore self-writes. For example, the rule reports the following unused variable:
let a = 0; a++; a += 1;
The rule is also capable of detecting an unused declaration that uses itself. For example, the rule reports the following unused interface:
interface I { instance(): I }
Finally, the rule now ignores all TypeScript declaration files, including global declaration files.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix #182, making useLiteralKeys retains optional chaining. Contributed by @denbezrukov
-
Fix #168, fix useExhaustiveDependencies false positive case when stable hook is on a new line. Contributed by @denbezrukov
-
Fix #137, fix noRedeclare false positive case with TypeScript module declaration:
declare module '*.gif' { const src: string; } declare module '*.bmp' { const src: string; }
Contributed by @denbezrukov
-
Fix #258, fix noUselessFragments the case where the rule removing an assignment. Contributed by @denbezrukov
-
Fix #266, where
complexity/useLiteralKeys
emitted a code action with an invalid AST. Contributed by @ematipico -
Fix #105, removing false positives reported by noUnusedVariables.
The rule no longer reports the following used variable:
const a = f(() => a);
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Improve server binary resolution when using certain package managers, notably pnpm.
The new strategy is to point to
node_modules/.bin/biome
path, which is consistent for all package managers.
- Fix a case where an empty JSON file would cause the LSP server to crash. Contributed by @ematipico
-
useNamingConvention now accepts import namespaces in PascalCase and rejects export namespaces in CONSTANT_CASE.
The following code is now valid:
import * as React from "react";
And the following code is now invalid:
export * as MY_NAMESPACE from "./lib.js";
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUselessConstructor now ignores decorated classes and decorated parameters. The rule now gives suggestions instead of safe fixes when parameters are annotated with types. Contributed by @Conaclos
- The diagnostic for
// rome-ignore
suppression comment should not be a warning. A warning could block the CI, marking a gradual migration difficult. The code action that changes// rome-ignore
to// biome-ignore
is disabled as consequence. Contributed by @ematipico
- Add a code action to replace
rome-ignore
withbiome-ignore
. Usebiome check --apply-unsafe
to update all the comments. The action is not bulletproof, and it might generate unwanted code, that's why it's unsafe action. Contributed by @ematipico
- Biome now reports a diagnostics when a
rome.json
file is found. biome migrate --write
createsbiome.json
fromrome.json
, but it won't delete therome.json
file. Contributed by @ematipico
- Biome uses
biome.json
first, then it attempts to userome.json
. - Fix a case where Biome couldn't compute correctly the ignored files when the VSC integration is enabled. Contributed by @ematipico
- The LSP now uses its own socket and won't rely on Biome's socket. This fixes some cases where users were seeing multiple servers in the
rage
output.
- You can use
// biome-ignore
as suppression comment. - The
// rome-ignore
suppression is deprecated.
- Add useCollapsedElseIf rule. This new rule requires merging an
else
and anif
, if theif
statement is the only statement in theelse
block. Contributed by @n-gude
-
useTemplate now reports all string concatenations.
Previously, the rule ignored concatenation of a value and a newline or a backquote. For example, the following concatenation was not reported:
v + "\n"; "`" + v + "`";
The rule now reports these cases and suggests the following code fixes:
- v + "\n"; + `${v}\n`; - v + "`"; + `\`${v}\``;
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
useExponentiationOperator suggests better code fixes.
The rule now preserves any comment preceding the exponent, and it preserves any parenthesis around the base or the exponent. It also adds spaces around the exponentiation operator
**
, and always adds parentheses for pre- and post-updates.- Math.pow(a++, /**/ (2)) + (a++) ** /**/ (2)
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
You can use
// biome-ignore
as suppression comment. -
The
// rome-ignore
suppression is deprecated.
-
Fix #80, making noDuplicateJsxProps case-insensitive.
Some frameworks, such as Material UI, rely on the case-sensitivity of JSX properties. For example, TextField has two properties with the same name, but distinct cases:
<TextField inputLabelProps="" InputLabelProps=""></TextField>
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix #138
noCommaOperator now correctly ignores all use of comma operators inside the update part of a
for
loop. The following code is now correctly ignored:for ( let i = 0, j = 1, k = 2; i < 100; i++, j++, k++ ) {}
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix rome#4713.
Previously, useTemplate made the following suggestion:
- a + b + "px" + `${a}${b}px`
This breaks code where
a
andb
are numbers.Now, the rule makes the following suggestion:
- a + b + "px" + `${a + b}px`
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix rome#4109
Previously, useTemplate suggested an invalid code fix when a leading or trailing single-line comment was present:
// leading comment - 1 /* inner comment */ + "+" + 2 // trailing comment + `${// leading comment + 1 /* inner comment */}+${2 //trailing comment}` // trailing comment
Now, the rule correctly handle this case:
// leading comment - 1 + "+" + 2 // trailing comment + `${1}+${2}` // trailing comment
As a sideeffect, the rule also suggests the removal of any inner comments.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix rome#3850
Previously useExponentiationOperator suggested invalid code in a specific edge case:
- 1 +Math.pow(++a, 2) + 1 +++a**2
Now, the rule properly adds parentheses:
- 1 +Math.pow(++a, 2) + 1 +(++a) ** 2
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix #106
noUndeclaredVariables now correctly recognizes some TypeScript types such as
Uppercase
.Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Fix rome#4616
Previously noUnreachableSuper reported valid codes with complex nesting of control flow structures.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
The organize imports feature now groups import statements by "distance".
Modules "farther" from the user are put on the top, and modules "closer" to the user are placed on the bottom. Check the documentation for more information about it.
-
The organize imports tool is enabled by default. If you don't want to use it, you need to disable it explicitly:
{ "organizeImports": { "enabled": false } }
-
The CLI now exists with an error when there's an error inside the configuration.
Previously, biome would raise warnings and continue the execution by applying its defaults.
This could have been better for users because this could have created false positives in linting or formatted code with a configuration that wasn't the user's.
-
The command
biome check
now shows formatter diagnostics when checking the code.The diagnostics presence will result in an error code when the command finishes.
This aligns with semantic and behaviour meant for the command
biome check
. -
init
command emits abiome.json
file;
-
Fix #4670, don't crash at empty default export.
-
Fix #4556, which correctly handles new lines in the
.gitignore
file across OS. -
Add a new option to ignore unknown files
--files-ignore-unknown
:biome format --files-ignore-unknown ./src
Doing so, Biome won't emit diagnostics for files that doesn't know how to handle.
-
Add the new option
--no-errors-on-unmatched
:biome format --no-errors-on-unmatched ./src
Biome doesn't exit with an error code if no files were processed in the given paths.
-
Fix the diagnostics emitted when running the
biome format
command. -
Biome no longer warns when discovering (possibly infinite) symbolic links between directories.
This fixes #4193 which resulted in incorrect warnings when a single file or directory was pointed at by multiple symbolic links. Symbolic links to other symbolic links do still trigger warnings if they are too deeply nested.
-
Introduced a new command called
biome lint
, which will only run lint rules against the code base. -
Biome recognises known files as "JSON files with comments allowed":
typescript.json
;tsconfig.json
;jsconfig.json
;tslint.json
;babel.config.json
;.babelrc.json
;.ember-cli
;typedoc.json
;.eslintrc.json
;.eslintrc
;.jsfmtrc
;.jshintrc
;.swcrc
;.hintrc
;.babelrc
;
-
Add support for
biome.json
;
-
Add a new option to ignore unknown files:
{ "files": { "ignoreUnknown": true } }
Doing so, Biome won't emit diagnostics for file that it doesn't know how to handle.
-
Add a new
"javascript"
option to support the unsafe/experimental parameter decorators:{ "javascript": { "parser": { "unsafeParameterDecoratorsEnabled": true } } }
-
Add a new
"extends"
option, useful to split the configuration file in multiple files:{ "extends": ["../sharedFormatter.json", "linter.json"] }
The resolution of the files is file system based, Biome doesn't know how to resolve dependencies yet.
-
The commands
biome check
andbiome lint
now show the remaining diagnostics even when--apply-safe
or--apply-unsafe
are passed. -
Fix the commands
biome check
andbiome lint
, they won't exit with an error code if no error diagnostics are emitted. -
Add a new option
--error-on-warnings
, which instructs Biome to exit with an error code when warnings are emitted.biome check --error-on-wanrings ./src
-
Add a configuration to enable parsing comments inside JSON files:
{ "json": { "parser": { "allowComments": true } } }
-
The Biome LSP can now show diagnostics belonging to JSON lint rules.
-
The Biome LSP no longer applies unsafe quickfixes on-save when
editor.codeActionsOnSave.quifix.biome
is enabled. -
Fix #4564; files too large don't emit errors.
-
The Biome LSP sends client messages when files are ignored or too big.
-
Add a new option called
--jsx-quote-style
.This option lets you choose between single and double quotes for JSX attributes.
-
Add the option
--arrow-parentheses
.This option allows setting the parentheses style for arrow functions.
-
The JSON formatter can now format
.json
files with comments.
-
Remove
complexity/noExtraSemicolon
(#4553)The Biome formatter takes care of removing extra semicolons. Thus, there is no need for this rule.
-
Remove
useCamelCase
Use useNamingConvention instead.
-
Add noGlobalIsFinite
This rule recommends using
Number.isFinite
instead of the global and unsafeisFinite
that attempts a type coercion. -
Add noGlobalIsNan
This rule recommends using
Number.isNaN
instead of the global and unsafeisNaN
that attempts a type coercion. -
Add noUnsafeDeclarationMerging
This rule disallows declaration merging between an interface and a class.
-
This rule disallows useless aliasing of
this
in arrow functions. -
Add useArrowFunction
This rule proposes turning function expressions into arrow functions. Function expressions that use
this
are ignored. -
This rule disallow duplicate keys in a JSON object.
-
Add noVoid
This rules disallow the use of
void
. -
This rule disallows
\8
and\9
escape sequences in string literals. -
This rule disallows useless
export {}
. -
Add useIsArray
This rule proposes using
Array.isArray()
instead ofinstanceof Array
. -
Add useGetterReturn
This rule enforces the presence of non-empty return statements in getters. This makes the following code incorrect:
class Person { get firstName() {} }
New rules are promoted, please check #4750 for more details:
- a11y/useHeadingContent
- complexity/noForEach
- complexity/useLiteralKeys
- complexity/useSimpleNumberKeys
- correctness/useIsNan
- suspicious/noConsoleLog
- suspicious/noDuplicateJsxProps
The following rules are now recommended:
-
Add new TypeScript globals (
AsyncDisposable
,Awaited
,DecoratorContext
, and others) 4643. -
noRedeclare: allow redeclare of index signatures are in different type members #4478
-
Improve noConsoleLog, noGlobalObjectCalls, useIsNan, and useNumericLiterals by handling
globalThis
andwindow
namespaces.For instance, the following code is now reported by
noConsoleLog
:globalThis.console.log("log")
-
Improve noDuplicateParameters to manage constructor parameters.
-
Improve noInnerDeclarations
Now, the rule doesn't report false-positives about ambient TypeScript declarations. For example, the following code is no longer reported by the rule:
declare var foo;
-
Improve useEnumInitializers
The rule now reports all uninitialized members of an enum in a single diagnostic.
Moreover, ambient enum declarations are now ignored. This avoids reporting ambient enum declarations in TypeScript declaration files.
declare enum Weather { Rainy, Sunny, }
-
Relax noBannedTypes and improve documentation
The rule no longer reports a user type that reuses a banned type name. The following code is now allowed:
import { Number } from "a-lib"; declare const v: Number;
The rule now allows the use of the type
{}
to denote a non-nullable generic type:function f<T extends {}>(x: T) { assert(x != null); }
And in a type intersection for narrowing a type to its non-nullable equivalent type:
type NonNullableMyType = MyType & {};
-
Improve noConstantCondition
The rule now allows
while(true)
. This recognizes a common pattern in the web community:while (true) { if (cond) { break; } }
-
Improve the diagnostic and the code action of useDefaultParameterLast.
The diagnostic now reports the last required parameter which should precede optional and default parameters.
The code action now removes any whitespace between the parameter name and its initialization.
-
Relax noConfusingArrow
All arrow functions that enclose its parameter with parenthesis are allowed. Thus, the following snippet no longer trigger the rule:
var x = (a) => 1 ? 2 : 3;
The following snippet still triggers the rule:
var x = a => 1 ? 2 : 3;
-
Relax useLiteralEnumMembers
Enum members that refer to previous enum members are now allowed. This allows a common pattern in enum flags like in the following example:
enum FileAccess { None = 0, Read = 1, Write = 1 << 1, All = Read | Write, }
Arbitrary numeric constant expressions are also allowed:
enum FileAccess { None = 0, Read = 2**0, Write = 2**1, All = Read | Write, }
-
Improve useLiteralKeys.
Now, the rule suggests simplifying computed properties to string literal properties:
{ - ["1+1"]: 2, + "1+1": 2, }
It also suggests simplifying string literal properties to static properties:
{ - "a": 0, + a: 0, }
These suggestions are made in object literals, classes, interfaces, and object types.
-
Improve noNewSymbol.
The rule now handles cases where
Symbol
is namespaced with the globalglobalThis
orwindow
. -
The rules useExhaustiveDependencies and useHookAtTopLevel accept a different shape of options
Old configuration:
{ "linter": { "rules": { "nursery": { "useExhaustiveDependencies": { "level": "error", "options": { "hooks": [ ["useMyEffect", 0, 1] ] } } } } } }
New configuration:
{ "linter": { "rules": { "nursery": { "useExhaustiveDependencies": { "level": "error", "options": { "hooks": [ { "name": "useMyEffect", "closureIndex": 0, "dependenciesIndex": 1 } ] } } } } } }
-
noRedundantUseStrict check only
'use strict'
directive to resolve false positive diagnostics.React introduced new directives, "use client" and "use server". The rule raises false positive errors about these directives.
-
Fix a crash in the NoParameterAssign rule that occurred when there was a bogus binding. #4323
-
Fix useExhaustiveDependencies in the following cases #4330:
- when the first argument of hooks is a named function
- inside an export default function
- for React.use* hooks
-
Fix noInvalidConstructorSuper that erroneously reported generic parents #4624.
-
Fix noDuplicateCase that erroneously reported as equals the strings literals
"'"
and'"'
#4706. -
Fix NoUnreachableSuper's false positive diagnostics (#4483) caused to nested if statement.
The rule no longer reports
This constructor calls super() in a loop
when using nested if statements in a constructor. -
Fix useHookAtTopLevel's false positive diagnostics (#4637)
The rule no longer reports false positive diagnostics when accessing properties directly from a hook and calling a hook inside function arguments.
-
Fix noUselessConstructor which erroneously reported constructors with default parameters rome#4781
-
Fix noUselessFragments's panics when running
biome check --apply-unsafe
(#4637)This rule's code action emits an invalid AST, so I fixed using JsxString instead of JsStringLiteral
-
Fix noUndeclaredVariables's false positive diagnostics (#4675)
The semantic analyzer no longer handles
this
reference identifier. -
Fix noUnusedVariables's false positive diagnostics (#4688)
The semantic analyzer handles ts export declaration clause correctly.
-
Add support for decorators in class method parameters, example:
class AppController { get(@Param() id) {} // ^^^^^^^^ new supported syntax }
This syntax is only supported via configuration, because it's a non-standard syntax.
{ "javascript": { "parser": { "unsafeParameterDecoratorsEnabled": true } } }
-
Add support for parsing comments inside JSON files:
{ "json": { "parser": { "allowComments": true } } }
-
Add support for the new
using
syntaxconst using = resource.lock();
