[BUG] Add "max-len": ["error", 80] to .eslintrc.json and make it work

[isaacs]

We have a lot of long lines, let's shorten them.

Be smart about making the choices to split lines, no fake internet points for cutting strings and making them unreadable!

You can configure max-len to ignore lines with long strings or regexes or urls; i suggest doing so. Example: https://github.com/airbnb/javascript/blob/2c5c88d0487db3024e8a20bb20f46933a03dd8aa/packages/eslint-config-airbnb-base/rules/style.js#L205

@isaacs
Is anyone doing this issue?

[Gurinderp]

Could I take on this issue if no one is currently working on it? @isaacs
Not sure if @dominguetigs still wants it.

[dominguetigs]

You can do it @Gurinderp

Hi @isaacs is anyone still working on the case? If no, could you please explain to me a little more about the project, I'm a newbie and would like to contribute, or is the issue is closed?

@darcyclarke - @isaacs, so I just added the "max-len" to the .eslintrc.json, but what do you mean with make it work?
It should be working right, just adding this rules...
"max-len": ["error", 80, { "ignoreUrls": true, "ignoreComments": false, "ignoreRegExpLiterals": true, "ignoreStrings": true, "ignoreTemplateLiterals": true }]

[isaacs]

Well, there are quite a few places (iirc?) that are longer than 80 chars. So npm run lint should not raise any errors with that option.

Looks like #2361 has been merged. Shouldn't this issue be closed too?
