Custom Environments

[andrewdeandrade]

Upon investigating the default options when calling eslint programmatically, it doesn't look like there is support for defining custom environments.

This would be a nice feature if you want to define your own environments optimized for different conditions, like /*eslint-env perf*/ or /*eslint-env readability*/, on a file per file basis.

We do not currently have support for custom environments at all. It has been discussed multiple time, and a few implementation were tested, but it always turns out to be harder then it looks.

In 1.0.0, environments will no longer toggle rules, so environments can only be used to define globals. I'm guessing what you want is handled better by shareable configs.

@malandrew did you get your question answered?

[nzakas]

We aren't planning on doing custom environments, so closing.
