Eslint disable no console not working

Question

I am trying to log to console something by disabling the no console rule in eslint like this:

// eslint-disable-next-line no-console
console.log(props.hasSubmittedForm);

But, I get an error:

Module build failed

unexpected token

For the dot the console.log. Why can't I log to the console like that?

Answer 1

You can wrap your code with /* eslint-disable no-console */ in order to disable eslint just for that part:

/* eslint-disable no-console */
console.log(props.hasSubmittedForm);
/* eslint-enable no-console */

Answer 2

Interestingly for me when I switch from eslint-disable-next-line to eslint-disable I have to also change the comment from // to /* */ .

This didn't work:

// eslint-disable no-console

This worked:

/* eslint-disable no-console */

Answer 3

Perhaps you didn't stage the eslint-disable... change? My code failed running the pre-commit hook, after staging the eslint-disable... change, it passed the hook.

Answer 4

Instead of wrapping (which is using two lines), or disable the whole file, you can simply use above the concerned line:

// eslint-disable-next-line no-console
console.log("I am ignored");
