typescript/prefer-enum-initializers Pedantic

💡 A suggestion is available for this rule.

Require each enum member value to be explicitly initialized.

In projects where the value of enum members are important, allowing implicit values for enums can cause bugs if enums are modified over time.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

typescript

// wrong, the value of `Close` is not constant
enum Status {
  Open = 1,
  Close,
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

typescript

enum Status {
  Open = 1,
  Close = 2,
}
