michael faithandlauren ca12911d1f feat(eslint-plugin-react-hooks): make flat config the recommended config (#32457)
This change swaps which config `recommended` is aliasing. In 5.2.0, the
new flat config was introduced as `recommended-latest`, while
`recommended` still pointed at the legacy rc-based config, with a note
that in the next major version `recommended` would be updated to point
at `recommend-latest`. This change makes that swap, and make the default
`recommended` experience the flat config. To continue using the legacy
rc recommended config, please make the following change in your config

```diff
- extends: ['plugin:react-hooks/recommended']
+ extends: ['plugin:react-hooks/recommended-legacy']
```

This change also deprecates `recommended-latest` in favor of
`recommended`. `recommended-latest` will be removed in a future major
version.

The README has been updated to reflect the new usage, and to put the
flat config sections before the legacy config sections.

I also took the opportunity to change the v9 fixture to use a typescript
config, serving as a demonstration for usage as well as a way to
validate the types are correct.

eslint-plugin-react-hooks

This ESLint plugin enforces the Rules of Hooks.

It is a part of the Hooks API for React.

Installation

Note: If you're using Create React App, please use react-scripts >= 3 instead of adding it directly.

Assuming you already have ESLint installed, run:

# npm
npm install eslint-plugin-react-hooks --save-dev

# yarn
yarn add eslint-plugin-react-hooks --dev

Flat Config (eslint.config.js|ts)

For ESLint 9.0.0 and above, add the recommended config.

import * as reactHooks from 'eslint-plugin-react-hooks';

export default [
  // ...
  reactHooks.configs['recommended'],
];

Legacy Config (.eslintrc)

If you are still using ESLint below 9.0.0, you can use recommended-legacy for accessing the recommended config.

{
  "extends": [
    // ...
    "plugin:react-hooks/recommended-legacy"
  ]
}

Custom Configuration

If you want more fine-grained configuration, you can instead add a snippet like this to your ESLint configuration file:

Flat Config (eslint.config.js|ts)

import * as reactHooks from 'eslint-plugin-react-hooks';

export default [
  {
    files: ['**/*.{js,jsx}'],
    plugins: { 'react-hooks': reactHooks },
    // ...
    rules: {
      'react-hooks/rules-of-hooks': 'error',
      'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps': 'warn',
    }
  },
];

Legacy Config (.eslintrc)

{
  "plugins": [
    // ...
    "react-hooks"
  ],
  "rules": {
    // ...
    "react-hooks/rules-of-hooks": "error",
    "react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": "warn"
  }
}

Advanced Configuration

exhaustive-deps can be configured to validate dependencies of custom Hooks with the additionalHooks option. This option accepts a regex to match the names of custom Hooks that have dependencies.

{
  rules: {
    // ...
    "react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": ["warn", {
      additionalHooks: "(useMyCustomHook|useMyOtherCustomHook)"
    }]
  }
}

We suggest to use this option very sparingly, if at all. Generally saying, we recommend most custom Hooks to not use the dependencies argument, and instead provide a higher-level API that is more focused around a specific use case.

Valid and Invalid Examples

Please refer to the Rules of Hooks documentation to learn more about this rule.
