enforce line breaks between array elements (array-element-newline)

A number of style guides require or disallow line breaks between array elements.

Rule Details

This rule enforces line breaks between array elements.

Options

This rule has either a string option:

  • "always" (default) requires line breaks between array elements
  • "never" disallows line breaks between array elements
  • "consistent" requires consistent usage of linebreaks between array elements

Or an object option (Requires line breaks if any of properties is satisfied. Otherwise, disallows line breaks):

  • "multiline": <boolean> requires line breaks if there are line breaks inside elements. If this is false, this condition is disabled.
  • "minItems": <number> requires line breaks if the number of elements is at least the given integer. If this is 0, this condition will act the same as the option "always". If this is null (the default), this condition is disabled.

always

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "always" option:

/*eslint array-element-newline: ["error", "always"]*/

var c = [1, 2];
var d = [1, 2, 3];
var e = [
    function foo() {
        dosomething();
    }, function bar() {
        dosomething();
    }
];

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "always" option:

/*eslint array-element-newline: ["error", "always"]*/

var a = [];
var b = [1];
var c = [1,
    2];
var d = [1,
    2,
    3];
var e = [
    function foo() {
        dosomething();
    },
    function bar() {
        dosomething();
    }
];

never

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint array-element-newline: ["error", "never"]*/

var c = [
    1,
    2
];
var d = [

    2,
    3
];
var e = [
    function foo() {
        dosomething();
    },
    function bar() {
        dosomething();
    }
];

Examples of correct code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint array-element-newline: ["error", "never"]*/

var a = [];
var b = [1];
var c = [1, 2];

    function foo() {
        dosomething();
    }, function bar() {
        dosomething();
    },
    function baz() {
        dosomething();

        dosomething();
    }, function baz() {
        dosomething();
    }
];
var h = [
    function foo() {
        dosomething();
    },
    function bar() {
        dosomething();
    },
    function baz() {
        dosomething();
    }

When Not To Use It

If you don't want to enforce linebreaks between array elements, don't enable this rule.
