Disallow unsupported Node.js built-in APIs on the specified version (n/no-unsupported-features/node-builtins
)
💼 This rule is enabled in the ✅ recommended
config.
Node.js community is improving built-in APIs continuously. You can check Node.js Documentation to know which Node.js version supports each Node.js API.
This rule reports unsupported Node.js built-in APIs on the configured Node.js version as lint errors. Editor integrations of ESLint would be useful to know it in real-time.
This rule reports APIs of Node.js built-in APIs on the basis of Node.js v13.2.0 Documentation.
This rule gets the supported Node.js version range from the following, falling back to the next if unspecified:
- Rule configuration
version
- ESLint shared setting
node.version
package.json
engines
field>=8.0.0
The default version is 8.0.0
because it's the minimum version the community is maintaining (see also Node.js Release Working Group).
For Node.js packages, using the engines
field is recommended because it's the official way to indicate support:
{
"name": "your-module",
"version": "1.0.0",
"engines": {
"node": ">=8.0.0"
}
}
For Shareable Configs or packages with a different development environment (e.g. pre-compiled, web package, etc.), you can configure ESLint with settings.node.version
to specify support.
{
"n/no-unsupported-features/node-builtins": ["error", {
"version": ">=8.0.0",
"ignores": []
}]
}
As mentioned above, this rule reads the engines
field of package.json
.
But, you can overwrite the version by version
option.
The version
option accepts the valid version range of node-semver
.
If you are using transpilers, maybe you want to ignore the warnings about some features.
You can use this ignores
option to ignore the given features.
The "ignores"
option accepts an array of the following strings.

The following options can be set by shared settings. Several rules have the same option, but we can set this option at once.
version
For Example:
{
"settings": {
"node": {
"version": ">=8.0.0",
}
},
"rules": {
"n/no-unsupported-features/node-builtins": ["error", {
"ignores": []
}]
}
}
This rule cannot find non-static things. For example:
- New properties and methods of instances.
- New parameters of functions.
- New
options
properties of function parameters. - New events.
