Typescript 在 create-react-app 中 EXTEND_ESLINT=true 时解析错误

Question

Stripped down demonstration - GitHub

We currently have a create-react-app project that is undergoing an incremental migration from Flow to Typescript. This meant disabling some undesirable ESLint rules. In order to customise ESLint, I've added EXTEND_ESLINT=true to the .env file.

Before adding this setting, my Typescript code compiles fine. Afterwards, I get parsing errors on certain (but not all) Typescript grammars.

// Type guards
export function f0<T>(x: T|undefined): x is T { ...

// Constrained generics
export function f1<T extends number>(x: T) { ...

// Type assertions
... return x as T

There may be other unrecognised syntaxes I haven't found yet.

So far

• I haven't found any similar problems or bug reports. I understand some Typescript features are not available in the current CRA version, such as const enum , but I haven't found any mention of the features listed above. I am also pretty sure my Typescript and ESLint versions are compatible with typescript-eslint .

• I've tried many different .eslintrc combinations. I've left a few of the most promising in the .eslintrc.js file in the attached repository. The current setup is the one recommended by create-react-app , where Typescript linting is set up in the overrides section.

• The ESLint Typescript configuration was set up following instructions from the typescript-eslint monorepo , in particular, typescript-eslint/parser and typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin

Solutions

• Ejecting is not an option. If no other solution can be found, I would rather just do the Flow -> TS conversion in one go.

• We currently extend our CRA configuration with customize-cra . Solutions involving this are welcome.

• I enjoy the flexibility the .eslintrc gives me but I am happy to do away with it, provided I can still set lint rules.

Notes

• I've included customize-cra in the demo repo to accurately reflect our project, but the problem persists without customize-cra , indicating that it is likely not the culprit.

• See src/components/TestComponent/fn.ts for examples of the problem syntax.

• My current hypothesis is that there's some setup in the CRA ESLint config that doesn't get carried over when EXTEND_ESLINT=true .

Updates

• I've opened an issue at create-react-app
• Partial workaround listed on the issue. Still not ideal.

Answer 1

UPDATE: Update react-scripts to latest version at least 3.4.1. It's fixed.

For pre 3.4.1 versions of react-scripts,

Open node_modules/react-scripts/config/webpack.config.js

Replace code block from line 365 with this code.

  if (process.env.EXTEND_ESLINT === 'true') {
    return undefined
  } else {
    return {
      extends: [require.resolve('eslint-config-react-app')],
    };
  }
})(),
useEslintrc: process.env.EXTEND_ESLINT === 'true',

Now if you start your app by yarn or npm, you will see it is fixed.

The fix is originally introduced here

https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/7776#issuecomment-567587642

Run npx patch-package react-scripts to make a patch for it. And add "postinstall": "patch-package" to your package.json scripts section.

The patch will be automatically applied after npm install

For anyone else encountering this issue, there is an open issue at CRA which seems to be the cause.
