eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular-x

This ESLint plugin is intended to prevent issues with combined use of RxJS and Angular.

There is no recommended configuration for this package, as all of the rules are opinionated.

Migration Guide from eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular

This project started as a fork of eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular initially started to support the new ESLint flat config format.

1. Migrate your config from the old .eslintrc format to eslint.config.mjs (or similar), and uninstall eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular.

   • See ESLint's guide here: [https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/migration-guide].
   • If you need to continue using the deprecated format, use the original eslint-plugin-rxjs or a different fork.

2. Install eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular-x, and import it into your config.

   + import rxjsAngularX from 'eslint-plugin-rxjs-angular-x';

3. Add the plugin to your plugins block with the new namespace:

   plugins: {
   +   'rxjs-angular-x': rxjsAngularX,
   }

4. In your rules block, replace the namespace rxjs-angular with rxjs-angular-x:

   -   'rxjs-angular/prefer-async-pipe': 'error',
   +   'rxjs-angular-x/prefer-async-pipe': 'error',

Tip

A complete description of all changes are documented in the CHANGELOG file.
