object-curly-newline
A number of style guides require or disallow line breaks inside of object braces and other tokens.
Rule Details
This rule requires or disallows a line break between {
and its following token, and between }
and its preceding token of object literals or destructuring assignments.
Options
This rule has either a string option:
"always"
requires line breaks after opening and before closing braces"never"
disallows line breaks after opening and before closing braces
Or an object option:
"multiline": true
requires line breaks if there are line breaks inside properties or between properties. Otherwise, it disallows line breaks."minProperties"
requires line breaks if the number of properties is at least the given integer. By default, an error will also be reported if an object contains linebreaks and has fewer properties than the given integer. However, the second behavior is disabled if theconsistent
option is set totrue
"consistent": true
(default) requires that either both curly braces, or neither, directly enclose newlines. Note that enabling this option will also change the behavior of theminProperties
option. (SeeminProperties
above for more information)
You can specify different options for object literals, destructuring assignments, and named imports and exports:
{
"object-curly-newline": ["error", {
"ObjectExpression": "always",
"ObjectPattern": { "multiline": true },
"ImportDeclaration": "never",
"ExportDeclaration": { "multiline": true, "minProperties": 3 }
}]
}

When Not To Use It
If you don't want to enforce consistent line breaks after opening and before closing braces, then it's safe to disable this rule.
