That issue was marked as accepting prs
Steps in CONTRIBUTING.md were taken

Overview

Makes working with enums not suck. See the docs that I wrote for the rule.

This PR is a draft; I am still working on it but I will start a PR for now in case anyone wants to give me early feedback.

No idea why linting is failing in CI. It passes locally when I do npm run lint.

Zamiell · 2022-04-28T13:57:36Z

I also found a bug with the typeChecker.getTypeAtLocation method while writing this PR.
If you pass it ts.VariableDeclaration instead of ts.BindingName, it will cause a run-time error.

Which means that the function signature of this method needs to be updated in the TypeScript repository.
This is over my pay grade to fix, but someone should look into this.

This is looking really good to me as it currently stands.

HOWEVER, I do see a large DevX problem in terms of "flags" enums. Now, flags enums are known to be unsafe.
Personally, I think in JS you should be using a Set or array to store the a list of possible values, but I get why one might use a "flags" enum.:

they're often used is for memory efficiency.
- for example - this is why TS went with a "flags" enum for its fields - saves a lot of memory across an entire project's ASTs.
some would argue that there's a nice DevX to using bitwise-ops on flag enums.
- personally I think that they're a bit confusing to think about, though I can understand how they're familiar for someone comfortable with lower-level languages.

The point is though, this may be something we need to solve for in terms of devx.
Right now the answer is "too bad, so sad - union in number", but I don't think this is a good answer for those users because it destroys the type documentation for the usecases, for example:

Whilst I understand that in these cases it is "technically correct" for the type to be number, it's also not truly correct as it suggests things like "it's valid to pass 100 to this function", when it's not - because 100 satisfies neither Foo.A, nor Foo.B.

So with all that said, I think we need to determine a means for people to "opt out" of the rule for flags enums.

Perhaps it's something as simple as adding an option with an "allow flags naming pattern" similar to the no-unused-vars rule's varsIgnorePattern option:

{
  "@typescript-eslint/strict-enums": [
    "error",
    // treats any enum with name ending in "Flags" as a flags enum
    {"flagsEnumPattern": "Flags^"},
  ],
}

This way users can have the rule on for strict usecase, and opt-out (with a clear naming pattern) known "unsafe" usecases.

I know we'd certainly find value within this very codebase thinks to the TS flag enums!

WDYT?

instead of unioning in number here, could we define TypeOrNumber as an enum member, and remove the bitwise operations on the enum?

@JoshuaKGoldberg the point @Zamiell was making was that the code is written like this:

getTypeFlags(flag.one | flag.two | ...);

when could be written like this:

getTypeFlags(new Set([flag.one, flag.two, ...]);

+      VariableDeclaration(node): void {
+        for (const declaration of node.declarations) {


nitpick - we don't care about the declaration itself, just the declarators.

Suggested change

VariableDeclaration(node): void {

for (const declaration of node.declarations) {

VariableDeclarator(node): void {

This is good because it saves you manually iterating and it means your report will be cleaner.

I.e. instead of:

const x = 1, ^^^^^^^^^^^^ y: Foo = 99; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

(where ^ is the report underline)

you'll instead have:

const x = 1, y: Foo = 99; ^^^^^^^^^^^

Which is clearer and more accurate!

There are branch conflicts in thre README.md files.

Why are there 2 duplicated README.md files? That doesn't make any sense.
Is there a script to generate the README.md tables?

Found 7 errors.

Anyone know why that is? I'm unable to work on the branch until that is resolved.

I think this is looking good so far.
I'm happy if we want to get this in and out to people to play with.

Fix the merge conflicts and we can get to it!

Brad can you respond to my messages on May 31st?

bradzacher · 2022-08-07T11:17:49Z

@Zamiell - both packages/eslint-plugin/README.md and packages/eslint-plugin/docs/rules/README.md no longer have rules table in them.

At the time the "canonical" table was the former (root readme), and the latter was added as part of the website build.

However the rules table is now no longer generated in source files - instead they are generated as part of the website build.

JoshuaKGoldberg · 2022-10-18T15:06:19Z

👋 @Zamiell, just checking in - do you still have time to work on this? And if so, are there still open questions you're waiting on answers to?
