Designate additional alias names for eslint consistent-this rule?

Question

I recently started using the eslint module to help clean-up some JavaScript files. The following error is being reported when I lint one of my files:

127:17 error Unexpected alias 'me' for 'this' consistent-this

After checking the documentation , I understand the error is being reported because my code is assigning the value of this to a variable named me instead of that .

What is the proper way to configure my project's .eslintrc.json to make it so the following line of code is not reported as an error: var me = this; ?

Answer 1

The rule should be like this in your .eslintrc

{
   "rules" : {
       "consistent-this": ["error", "me"]
   }
}
