Description

Restrict the number of lines in a file.

This rule checks the number of lines in a file and reports a diagnostic if it exceeds a specified limit. Some people consider large files a code smell. Large files tend to do many things and can make it hard to follow what’s going on. Many coding style guides dictate a limit of the number of lines that a file can comprise of. This rule can help enforce that style.

Examples

Invalid

The following example will show a diagnostic when maxLines is set to 2:

1
{
2
  "linter": {
3
    "rules": {
4
      "nursery": {
5
        "noExcessiveLinesPerFile": {

Options

The following options are available:

`maxLines`

This option sets the maximum number of lines allowed in a file. If the file exceeds this limit, a diagnostic will be reported.

Default: 300

When maxLines: 2, the following file will be considered invalid:

1
{
2
  "linter": {
3
    "rules": {
4
      "nursery": {
5
        "noExcessiveLinesPerFile": {
6
          "options": {
7
            "maxLines": 2

`skipBlankLines`

When this option is set to true, blank lines are not counted towards the maximum line limit. This means that only lines with actual code or comments will be counted.

Default: false

When maxLines: 3 and skipBlankLines: true, the following file will be considered valid even though it has 5 total lines, because only 3 lines contain code:

1
{
2
  "linter": {
3
    "rules": {
4
      "nursery": {
5
        "noExcessiveLinesPerFile": {
6
          "options": {
7
            "maxLines": 3,
8
            "skipBlankLines": true
9
          }
10
        }
11
      }
12
    }
13
  }
14
}

1
const a = 1;
2

3
const b = 2;
4

5
const c = 3;

Suppressions

If you need to exceed the line limit in a specific file, you can suppress this rule at the top of the file:

1
{
2
  "linter": {
3
    "rules": {
4
      "nursery": {
5
        "noExcessiveLinesPerFile": {
6
          "options": {
7
            "maxLines": 2
8
          }
9
        }
10
      }
11
    }
12
  }
13
}
