Answer 1

/* eslint-disable */

//suppress all warnings between comments
alert('foo');

/* eslint-enable */

This will disable all eslint rules within the block.

Answer 2

As of today, the answer does not work for me, but putting this at the top of the file does work:

/* eslint-disable @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars */

It is important to know that at least in my case, the type of comment makes a difference. The previous comment works for me, but the following won't work:

// eslint-disable @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars

Answer 3

You can turn off specific rule for a file by using /*eslint [<rule: "off"], >]*/

/* eslint no-console: "off", no-mixed-operators: "off" */

Version: eslint@4.3.0

Answer 4

You can turn off/change a particular rule for a file by putting the configurations at the top of the file.

/* eslint no-use-before-define: 0 */  // --> OFF

or

/* eslint no-use-before-define: 2 */  // --> ON

Place the following on the top of your file

/* eslint-disable no-use-before-define */

This will disable the rule for the entire file
