import/default Correctness

What it does

If a default import is requested, this rule will report if there is no default export in the imported module.

Why is this bad?

Using a default import when there is no default export can lead to confusion and runtime errors. It can make the code harder to understand and maintain, as it may suggest that a module has a default export when it does not, leading to unexpected behavior.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

// ./bar.js
export function bar() {
  return null;
}

// ./foo.js
import bar from "./bar"; // no default export found in ./bar

Examples of correct code for this rule:

// ./bar.js
export default function bar() {
  return null;
}

// ./foo.js
import { bar } from "./bar"; // correct usage of named import

How to use

To enable this rule in the CLI or using the config file, you can use:

CLI

oxlint --deny import/default --import-plugin

Config (.oxlintrc.json)

{
  "plugins": ["import"],
  "rules": {
    "import/default": "error"
  }
}
