no-setting-array-properties-rule v0.0.3

No setting array properties rule

A TSLint rule which forbids setting array properties, because they aren't handled by JSON.stringify.

Description

When you call JSON.stringify on an array with custom properties, those properties aren't serialized. Example:

let arr: number[] = [1, 2];
const prop2: string = "prop2";

arr["prop1"] = "1";
arr[prop2] = "2";

JSON.stringify(arr); //results in [1,2]

This rule forbids property assignment and access on array types, so it forbids these two statements in the example above:

• arr["prop1"] = "1";
• arr[prop2] = "2";

Usage

• Install it using npm install no-setting-array-properties-rule --save-dev.
• Add it to your tslint.json, like this:

{
   "rulesDirectory": [
       "node_modules/no-setting-array-properties-rule/dist/src"
   ],
   "rules": {
       "no-setting-array-properties": true
   }
}

Note that this rule doesn't work in vscode-tslint at the moment, because it's a TypedRule. See this vscode-tslint issue for more details.
