How to suppress “{variable} is better written in dot notation.”

Question

Is there an option to and/or how do I suppress errors like the following?

175,14:[\'tracker\'] is better written in dot notation.

Answer 1

In JSHint 1.0.0 and above you have the ability to ignore any warning with a special option syntax. The identifier of this warning is W069.

This means you can tell JSHint to not issue this warning with the /*jshint -W069 */ directive.

You can even wrap several lines of code and then reenable the warning as the example below (with a note to future you why it was a good idea):

/*jshint -W069 */
/*Disable Warning Justification:
    Using bracket notation so Google Closure Compiler 
    ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS will keep the original property names. */
obj['prop1'] ='foo';
obj['prop2'] ='bar';
/*jshint +W069 */
