Always put spacing around your conditional expressions.

The --fix option on the command line can automatically fix some of the problems reported by this rule.

Rule Details

This rule is more granular than space-in-parens. This rule is limited to conditional expressions in control flow statements only. If, For, While, etc.

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/* eslint wyze/space-around-conditional: 'error' */
if ( true ) {
  // Do something...
}

for ( var i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
  // Do something...
}

for ( ;; ) {
  // Do something
}

while ( true ) {
  // Do something...
}

do {
  // Do something...
} while ( true )

switch ( true ) {
  // Do something...
}

for ( const letter of 'hello' ) {
  // Do something...
}

for ( const prop in {} ) {
  // Do something...
}

try {
  // Do something...
} catch ( ex ) {}

The following patterns are considered problems:

/* eslint wyze/space-around-conditional: 'error' */
if (true ) {
  // Do something...
}

for ( var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
  // Do something...
}

while (true) {
  // Do something...
}

do {
  // Do something...
} while (true )

switch ( true) {
  // Do something...
}

for (const letter in 'hello') {
  // Do something...
}

for ( const prop of {}) {
  // Do something...
}

try {
  // Do something...
} catch (ex) {}

When Not To Use It

You can turn this rule off if you are not concerned with the consistency of spacing between parentheses.
