library1.1.1jsnpmunverified

ESLint plugin (v1.1.1) that flags imports or require() calls to modules not listed in the project's package.json dependencies. Uses the 'no-implicit' rule to prevent accidental reliance on transitive dependencies. Lightweight, no runtime dependencies, works with both CJS require and ES import syntax. Differentiates from similar plugins by focusing solely on implicit dependency detection with minimal configuration.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ plugins: ['implicit-dependencies']

✗ plugins: ['eslint-plugin-implicit-dependencies']

ESLint plugin naming convention allows omitting the eslint-plugin- prefix.

no-implicit rule

✓ rules: { 'implicit-dependencies/no-implicit': 'error' }

✗ rules: { 'no-implicit': 'error' }

Rule is namespaced under the plugin. Always use the full 'implicit-dependencies/no-implicit' key.

CommonJS require

✓ require('eslint-plugin-implicit-dependencies')

For programmatic use in .eslintrc.js or config file. Not recommended; prefer string plugin names.

Configure ESLint to error on any import not listed in package.json dependencies or devDependencies.

// .eslintrc.json { "plugins": ["implicit-dependencies"], "rules": { "implicit-dependencies/no-implicit": ["error", { "dev": true }] } }

Debug

Known issues

gotchaBy default, only 'dependencies' are checked. Transient dependencies in devDependencies or peerDependencies are ignored unless explicitly configured.

fix

Add options: { dev: true, peer: true, optional: true } to the rule.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe plugin does not handle dynamic require() or import() expressions; only static imports and requires are detected.

fix

Use static import statements or add the dynamic module to package.json explicitly.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaMonorepo setups: Only the root package.json is read; subpackage dependencies may be incorrectly flagged.

fix

Run ESLint separately per package, or use a monorepo-aware alternative.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Failed to load plugin 'implicit-dependencies': Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-implicit-dependencies'

fix

npm install eslint-plugin-implicit-dependencies --save-dev

Definition for rule 'implicit-dependencies/no-implicit' was not found

Plugin not listed in 'plugins' section of ESLint config.

fix

Add 'implicit-dependencies' to the plugins array.
