导出未使用的功能以便整理

Question

I have the following code in a Javascript file:

/* exported something */

function something() {}

The something function is not used in the file because it is called from a Html form submission.

When the linter runs, es-lint in my case, I receive a no-unused-vars message.

I expected that exported comment would fix this, but this is not the case.

Am I doing something wrong? Am I missing something?

Try eliminating the space between the pragma and code:

/* exported something */
function something() {}

If this doesn't work, then you can always edit your eslint config so that the vars property only looks at functions in local scope:

{
    "rules": {
        "no-unused-vars": [2, {"vars": "local", "args": "after-used"}]
    }
}
