eslint 8 compatibility

[TrejGun]

Hi guys!

Please tell us if eslint-config-standard is compatible with the new version of ESlint?
and if yes please add it to peerDependencies

[voxpelli]

We are actively working towards this, yes! Though we have been a bit short of time lately, will try to get it out as soon as possible. See PR.

[voxpelli]

Still working on this, see #193 for current status

[meabed]

Thanks a lot @voxpelli - would this be ready anytime soon? I could help if needed to get it ready.

[voxpelli]

@meabed We are largely waiting for two of the plugins that we use (eslint-plugin-node and eslint-plugin-promise) to be updated to support ESLint 8, no ETA from the maintainers of those, we're tracking the status of it in #193

Right now I don't think there's much to help with in that regard, but thanks for the offer! 🙏

The dependency eslint-config-node you refer to seems not widely used, it has weekly downloads of 36.104....
Do you really rely on it or would it be possible to drop that dependency?

The dependency eslint-config-node you refer to seems not widely used, it has weekly downloads of 36.104.... Do you really rely on it or would it be possible to drop that dependency?

It's the plugin that we use, it has 3 million weekly downloads: https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-node 🙂

A might got guided into a wrong direction. This PR mentiones the config...

fix(deps): update dependency eslint to v8 netlify/eslint-config-node#321

[voxpelli]

@JanFellner It mentions the plugin? Only mention of eslint-config-node there is that they mention in a PR that they are blocked by us before they can upgrade to ESLint 8, as they depend on us: https://github.com/netlify/eslint-config-node/blob/ddd5fb1c482eb6fde48a354e4126a4297c2ddf72/.eslintrc.js#L12

eslint-plugin-node's latest version v11.1.0 was published ~2y ago. nor sure if it's still maintained, I've asked the author, but no response. :-( 

mysticatea/eslint-plugin-node#300

[voxpelli]

@aladdin-add If you want help, we could check if we could bring your fork under the Standard organization.

Been pondering that a fork probably would be necessary, great that you got around to do it!

[aladdin-add]

sure, I'm totally open to transferring to Standard, for better maintainability and discoverability.

[aladdin-add]

another point: nicholas has a plan to make an org eslint-community. It's also great to go there (yes, eslint is its user too!). I'll talk to him to see what's his suggestion.

[MichaelDeBoey]

Would be nice if we could transfer repos like eslint-plugin-node, eslint-plugin-es, eslint-utils & @mysticatea/eslint-plugin to a new @eslint-community org

[MichaelDeBoey]

@xjamundx let me know that eslint-plugin-promise can be added to the new org too

[MichaelDeBoey]

@aladdin-add @divlo @voxpelli Do we already have some news about the new @eslint-community org and moving eslint-plugin-node, eslint-plugin-es, eslint-utils, @mysticatea/eslint-plugin & eslint-plugin-promise over there?

It would be awesome if we could talk about this on Twitter or Discord or so.

[voxpelli]

@MichaelDeBoey Are you in control of @eslint-community? If so, then feel free to add me there and we can have a discussion in a team we set up there?

[MichaelDeBoey]

@voxpelli I'm not, I thought one of you guys was tbh 🤔

I would like to be added too if possible.

[voxpelli]

@MichaelDeBoey Lets continue the discussion here: eslint-community/eslint-plugin-n#8
