eslint "parsing error: Unexpected token {" in JSX
Eslint on its own is not good enough. First install babel-eslint:
npm install --save-dev babel-eslintOr with yarn:
yarn add -D babel-eslintThen add to your .eslintrc file:
"parser": "babel-eslint"You might want to install eslint-plugin-babel as well, but I believe this is not needed
I've got the same error on Next.js.
These steps solved my issue:
1) Install babel-eslint:
npm install --save-dev babel-eslint2) Add babel-eslint as a parser to eslint config
"parser": "babel-eslint"My eslint config looks like this (.eslintrc):
{ "env": { "browser": true, "es6": true, "commonjs": true, "node": true }, "extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:react/recommended"], "parser": "babel-eslint", "parserOptions": { "ecmaVersion": 9, "ecmaFeatures": { "jsx": true }, "sourceType": "module" }, "plugins": ["react"], "rules": { "react/react-in-jsx-scope": 0, "no-console": 1 }}
My .eslintr has this extra configuration to enable JSX
"parserOptions": { "ecmaFeatures": { "jsx": true } }
