eslint/sort-vars Pedantic

What it does

When declaring multiple variables within the same block, sorting variable names make it easier to find necessary variable easier at a later time.

Why is this bad?

Unsorted variable declarations can make the code harder to read and maintain.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

js
var b, a;
var a, B, c;

Examples of correct code for this rule:

js
var a, b, c, d;
var B, a, c;

Configuration

This rule accepts a configuration object with the following properties:

ignoreCase

type: boolean

default: false

When true, the rule ignores case-sensitivity when sorting variables.

How to use

To enable this rule using the config file or in the CLI, you can use:

json
{
  "rules": {
    "sort-vars": "error"
  }
}
bash
oxlint --deny sort-vars
