# import/max-dependencies
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Forbid modules to have too many dependencies (`import` or `require` statements).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a useful rule because a module with too many dependencies is a code smell, and usually indicates the module is doing too much and/or should be broken up into smaller modules.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Importing multiple named exports from a single module will only count once (e.g. `import {x, y, z} from './foo'` will only count as a single dependency).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Options
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This rule has the following options, with these defaults:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
"import/max-dependencies": ["error", {
|
||
|
|
"max": 10,
|
||
|
|
"ignoreTypeImports": false,
|
||
|
|
}]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `max`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This option sets the maximum number of dependencies allowed. Anything over will trigger the rule. **Default is 10** if the rule is enabled and no `max` is specified.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Given a max value of `{"max": 2}`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Fail
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
import a from './a'; // 1
|
||
|
|
const b = require('./b'); // 2
|
||
|
|
import c from './c'; // 3 - exceeds max!
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Pass
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
import a from './a'; // 1
|
||
|
|
const anotherA = require('./a'); // still 1
|
||
|
|
import {x, y, z} from './foo'; // 2
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `ignoreTypeImports`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ignores `type` imports. Type imports are a feature released in TypeScript 3.8, you can [read more here](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-3-8.html#type-only-imports-and-export). Defaults to `false`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Given `{"max": 2, "ignoreTypeImports": true}`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Fail
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```ts
|
||
|
|
import a from './a';
|
||
|
|
import b from './b';
|
||
|
|
import c from './c';
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Pass
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```ts
|
||
|
|
import a from './a';
|
||
|
|
import b from './b';
|
||
|
|
import type c from './c'; // Doesn't count against max
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## When Not To Use It
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you don't care how many dependencies a module has.
