Joe Savona 758301f70f [compiler][rfc] Switch eslint-plugin-react-compiler to single rule for Meta compat
Now that the official way to use React Compiler's linting is via `eslint-plugin-react-hooks` v7, eslint-plugin-react-compiler isn't strictly necessary anymore. However, at Meta our linting setup makes it a bit tedious to use the current eprh setup with lots of rules. Here I'm experimenting with making eslint-plugin-react-compiler just report all issues under one rule, to make it a bit easier to sync internally.

Unclear if we even need to land this or just use it to help figure out the migration.

eslint-plugin-react-compiler

ESLint plugin surfacing problematic React code found by the React compiler.

Installation

You'll first need to install ESLint:

npm i eslint --save-dev

Next, install eslint-plugin-react-compiler:

npm install eslint-plugin-react-compiler --save-dev

Usage

Flat config

Edit your eslint 8+ config (for example eslint.config.mjs) with the recommended configuration:

+ import reactCompiler from "eslint-plugin-react-compiler"
import react from "eslint-plugin-react"

export default [
    // Your existing config
    { ...pluginReact.configs.flat.recommended, settings: { react: { version: "detect" } } },
+   reactCompiler.configs.recommended    
]

Legacy config (.eslintrc)

Add react-compiler to the plugins section of your configuration file. You can omit the eslint-plugin- prefix:

{
    "plugins": [
        "react-compiler"
    ]
}

Then configure the rules you want to use under the rules section.

{
    "rules": {
        "react-compiler/react-compiler": "error"
    }
}

Rules

TODO: Run eslint-doc-generator to generate the rules list.
