📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Changes

The frontend now defines its ESLint and Prettier configurations locally. Shared personal configuration packages were removed. ESLint rules, React and test overrides, formatting options, explicit plugins, and CI flat-config support are declared in the project.

Frontend tooling configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Explicit tooling dependencies
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/package.json
The package manifest replaces shared configuration packages with explicit ESLint, TypeScript, browser-global, and Prettier plugin dependencies. It also relocates the browserslist and directories metadata.
Local ESLint base rules
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/eslint.config.js
The flat configuration defines plugin setup, shared rule sets, core rules, TypeScript rules, Unicorn overrides, import sorting, regular expressions, comments, and functional rules locally.
React and test ESLint integration
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/eslint.config.js
The exported configuration adds inline React, JSX accessibility, Testing Library, Markdown, and test-file overrides.
Local Prettier configuration
specifyweb/frontend/js_src/prettier.config.js
The configuration defines local formatting options and XML, package, and shell plugins while preserving trailingComma: 'es5'.
Flat config CI wiring
.github/workflows/test.yml
The frontend ESLint auto-fix step enables flat config mode. The EOL check brace is reformatted without a functional change.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to fba0b

This PR replaces personal linting configuration and updates CI, but the current configuration may fail to load and may silently omit important React lint rules. The CI job also still permits fork-controlled filenames to be interpreted as shell commands, creating a significant security exposure. Merge should be blocked until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Full details: Automatic Tests

Explanation

PASS — The PR changes ESLint/Prettier configuration, dependencies, and CI only. It does not change application behavior. No test-like file is added in the PR range. Dedicated automatic tests are therefore not necessary. Existing CI runs the front-end build, TypeScript checks, unit tests, localization tests, ESLint, and Prettier for front-end changes.

Full details: Testing Instructions

Explanation

The testing instructions are not clear or complete. They only say, “if those are passing,” without naming the checks or giving commands. The PR changes the frontend ESLint and Prettier configurations and their dependencies. The frontend CI job runs build, TypeScript, unit, and localization checks, but its ESLint step uses set +e and its Prettier step ends with || true, so a passing CI result does not reliably confirm the changed tooling. The instructions also describe the change as only removing CI dependencies, which does not accurately identify the affected frontend components.

Resolution

Update the testing instructions with explicit frontend validation. At minimum, state that reviewers must run npm ci and the frontend build, run npm run test (or list typecheck, unit, and localization tests), and run ESLint with flat config plus Prettier checks against the affected frontend files. State the working directory and the expected successful result for each command.

Use typescript.configs instead of dist/configs/* imports.

@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 5.62.0 exposes all four configurations on its public configs property. Deep imports rely on the package’s internal layout and may break in later versions.

In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/eslint.config.js`:
- Around line 161-168: Correct the invalid AST selector names in the selector
configuration: replace ContinueStaement and DoWhileStatementView with the proper
selectors for continue and do-while statements, and replace Tools.Generator with
the selector that matches generator functions. Preserve the surrounding
statement selectors and ensure these constructs are actually disallowed.
- Line 812: Update the files glob in the ESLint configuration override to match
Markdown files using a valid .md pattern, removing the non-expanded single-item
brace group while preserving the existing JavaScript and TypeScript extensions.
- Line 853: In the ESLint configuration array around the spread beginning at
line 853, remove the redundant nested spread/array wrapper so the entries are
directly part of the parent array, then normalize that block to the file’s
two-space indentation using Prettier.
- Around line 715-718: Update the ESLint flat configuration to register the
sonarjs plugin and ensure its package is declared in package.json, or remove all
four sonarjs rules if the plugin is not intended to be used. Keep the rule
configuration consistent with the chosen approach so ESLint can load the config
without an unresolved sonarjs namespace.
- Line 101: Replace the bare 'eslint:recommended' entry in the exported ESLint
configuration with a flat-config-compatible recommended configuration,
preferably js.configs.recommended; alternatively, initialize FlatCompat with
recommendedConfig before using compat.extends('eslint:recommended').
- Around line 854-857: Update the eslint-plugin-functional preset reference at
the existing FlatCompat.config call to use
functional.configs['external-recommended'] instead of the nonexistent
external-typescript-recommended key, ensuring the functional rules are included;
leave the valid reactHooks.configs.recommended usage unchanged.

In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/package.json`:
- Around line 108-120: Update the CI ESLint invocation to set
ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG=true so ESLint 8.57.1 loads eslint.config.js. Apply this
in the workflow’s ESLint execution environment, or upgrade ESLint to version 9
while preserving the existing plugin compatibility.

In `@specifyweb/frontend/js_src/prettier.config.js`:
- Around line 6-11: Update the default export in the Prettier configuration to
stop filtering out prettier-plugin-tailwindcss, so the complete plugins
list—including prettier-plugin-tailwindcss—is returned and Tailwind class
sorting is enabled.

Register the sonarjs plugin or remove these rules.

The flat config references four sonarjs rules, but its plugins object and package.json define no sonarjs plugin. ESLint can stop while loading this configuration because the rule namespace is unresolved.

- Line 21: Register the imported sonarjs plugin in the flat-config plugins
object within base_config so the existing sonarjs rules resolve correctly;
update the plugins mapping rather than removing the four sonarjs rule entries.
- Around line 855-857: Update the ESLint configuration rules block containing
react/prop-types to register both plugins in its plugins object: add react and
map react-hooks to reactHooks, preserving the existing rule configuration.
- Line 852: Update the ESLint configuration where
functional.configs['external-recommended'] is added so the preset is first
converted through the existing FlatCompat instance’s config method, then spread
or add the converted result to the flat config. Do not add the raw preset
directly.
