Global variables in Javascript and ESLint


I don't think hacking ESLint rules per file is a great idea.

You should rather define globals in .eslintrc or package.json.

For .eslintrc:

"globals": {    "angular": true}

For package.json:

"eslintConfig": {    "globals": {        "angular": true    }}

Check https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring/language-options#specifying-globals


You can add globals either per file or in your config.If you don't want to change your config, you'll have to add the used globals in every file.

To specify globals using a comment inside of your JavaScript file, use the following format:

/* global var1, var2 */

This defines two global variables, var1 and var2. If you want to optionally specify that these global variables should never be written to (only read), then you can set each with a false flag:

/* global var1:false, var2:false */
