NoFloatIds

A rule for elm-review that discourages the use of Float types for "Id" properties.

Not expected to be widely applicable; our use case is fairly niche, and relates to legacy software.

In the rare situation that generated Elm code isn't of the highest quality, the NoFloatIds rule will help to enforce record properties that look like IDs from being assigned Float types.

For example, the following two Record type definitions would be marked as Errors:

type alias Foo =
    { qux : Qux
    , someId : Float
    }

type alias Bar =
    { qux : Qux
    , id : Float
    }

Usage

After adding elm-review to your project, import this rule from your ReviewConfig.elm file and add it to the config. E.g.:

import NoFloatIds
import Review.Rule exposing (Rule)


config : List Rule
config =
    [ NoFloatIds.rule ]
