React specific linting rules for ESLint

# Installation

Install [ESLint](https://www.github.com/eslint/eslint) either locally or globally.

```sh
$ npm install eslint --save-dev
```

If you installed `ESLint` globally, you have to install React plugin globally too. Otherwise, install it locally.

```sh
$ npm install eslint-plugin-react --save-dev
```

# Configuration

Add `plugins` section and specify ESLint-plugin-React as a plugin.

```json
{
  "plugins": [
    "react"
  ]
}
```

You can also specify some settings that will be shared across all the plugin rules.

```json5
{
  "settings": {
    "react": {
      "createClass": "createClass", // Regex for Component Factory to use, default to "createClass"
      "pragma": "React",  // Pragma to use, default to "React"
      "version": "15.0" // React version, default to the latest React stable release
    }
  }
}
```

If it is not already the case you must also configure `ESLint` to support JSX.

With ESLint 1.x.x:

```json
{
  "ecmaFeatures": {
    "jsx": true
  }
}
```

With ESLint 2.x.x or 3.x.x:

```json
{
  "parserOptions": {
    "ecmaFeatures": {
      "jsx": true
    }
  }
}
```

Finally, enable all of the rules that you would like to use.  Use [our preset](#recommended) to get reasonable defaults quickly, and/or choose your own:

```json
  "rules": {
    "react/jsx-uses-react": "error",
    "react/jsx-uses-vars": "error",
  }
```

# Shareable configurations

## Recommended

This plugin exports a `recommended` configuration that enforce React good practices.

To enable this configuration use the `extends` property in your `.eslintrc` config file:

```json
{
  "extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:react/recommended"]
}
```

See [ESLint documentation](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#extending-configuration-files) for more information about extending configuration files.

The rules enabled in this configuration are:

* [react/display-name](docs/rules/display-name.md)
* [react/jsx-no-duplicate-props](docs/rules/jsx-no-duplicate-props.md)
* [react/jsx-no-undef](docs/rules/jsx-no-undef.md)
* [react/jsx-uses-react](docs/rules/jsx-uses-react.md)
* [react/jsx-uses-vars](docs/rules/jsx-uses-vars.md)
* [react/no-deprecated](docs/rules/no-deprecated.md)
* [react/no-direct-mutation-state](docs/rules/no-direct-mutation-state.md)
* [react/no-find-dom-node](docs/rules/no-find-dom-node.md)
* [react/no-is-mounted](docs/rules/no-is-mounted.md)
* [react/no-unknown-property](docs/rules/no-unknown-property.md)
* [react/no-render-return-value](docs/rules/no-render-return-value.md)

* [react/react-in-jsx-scope](docs/rules/react-in-jsx-scope.md)
* [react/require-render-return](docs/rules/require-render-return.md)

## All

This plugin also exports an `all` configuration that includes every available rule.
This pairs well with the `eslint:all` rule.

```json
{
  "plugins": [
    "react"
  ],
  "extends": ["eslint:all", "plugin:react/all"]
}
```

**Note**: These configurations will import `eslint-plugin-react` and enable JSX in [parser options](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#specifying-parser-options).
