linter-eslint | ESLint plugin for Atom Linter | Code Analyzer library

Maybe it helps. Try install "babel-eslint" and then add it "parser": "babel-eslint", to your .eslintrc.json file

You can create a custom file type by adding following in your config.cson file

Without digging into the issue and finding specific point of failure I decided on a fresh start.

• Delete global node modules.
• Delete all NON core Atom plugins AND themes.
• uninstall Atom.
• reinstall Atom.
• install ESLint and supporting dependencies only.

Doing that I was able to run ESLint with no issues. My assumption in all of this is there was a conflict in a plugin or theme. From there installing my core tool plugins was successful.

Okay, I am not sure if this was a cache problem or something but I don't think it was because I kept restarting Atom and zsh but here's how it worked:

In Atom, I changed .eslintrc Path to ~/.eslintrc.js and Use global ESlint installation to `checked.

And this is my .eslintrc in the home folder as pointed to in Atom

And lastly, to make it work with Use global ESlint installation turned on, I included both eslint-config-google and eslint in my $PATH variable this way

Syntax error is caused by a not closed View tag.

Side note: linter is not always really accurate with these sort of errors. A small suggestion is that always check if you closed all your tags if you had a expected "}" error and already checked all your }

There is an eslint extension for VS Code that MS supports: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-eslint

FWIW, I found that by googling "ESLint vscode". ;)

Given that the MS supported version still wants you to install eslint via npm, this is probably the only way to go.

FWIW, Atom itself is written in Node, so I'm guessing that it's doing the same thing, just hidden behind some UI snazziness.

By itself, Atom has no means of understanding whether code is good or not. This specific error is being generated by the linter-eslint package, which relies on the external binary eslint. Sometimes linters have arbitrary style requirements, and sometimes they get out of date and need to be updated. The typical process for troubleshooting linters is to take a look at the specific linter's rule set to see if the error is supposed to be thrown in that context. Since linters are intended for enforcing good coding style in addition to highlighting syntax errors, a linter-originating error doesn't necessarily mean that the code is bad and won't run. That's a question that must be answered on a case-by-case basis.

Testing linter packages generally requires a small amount of NPM experience (you can do it without Node, but it's easiest to download them via NPM). All you have to do is install the package globally and then run its command, which is trivially easy for someone who has done it before, but not necessarily easy for someone who doesn't know what the individual steps look like. For anyone reading this question in the future and dealing with a similar situation, I would recommend hopping onto the Atom forum or Slack and asking for a walkthrough.

There are two options:

1. Either to include the namespace where describe and other variables are defined.
2. Or you can update .jshintrc to make linter aware that you are using mocha framework and ignore the errors. Link that can be helpful: LINK

You're confusing the Sublime Text console with a terminal (also sometimes referred to as console)

Sublime Text exposes its internals via an Application Programming Interface (API) that programmers can interact with using the Python programming language. An embedded Python interpreter is included in the editor. The embedded interpreter is useful to inspect the editor’s settings and to quickly test API calls while developing plugins.

So, you can only run Python commands and Python methods exposed by Sublime Text in its console. The plugin for eslint is available through the command palette.
