eslint/no-empty-character-class Correctness ​

✅ This rule is turned on by default.

What it does ​

Disallow empty character classes in regular expressions

Why is this bad? ​

Because empty character classes in regular expressions do not match anything, they might be typing mistakes.

Example ​

javascript
var foo = /^abc[]/;

How to use ​

To enable this rule in the CLI or using the config file, you can use:

bash
oxlint --deny no-empty-character-class
json
{
  "rules": {
    "no-empty-character-class": "error"
  }
}
