About eslint-plugin-unused-imports
eslint-plugin-unused-imports
Find and remove unused es6 module imports. It works by splitting up the no-unused-vars rule depending on it being an import statement in the AST and providing an autofix rule to remove the nodes if they are imports. This plugin composes the rule no-unused-vars of either the typescript or js plugin so be aware that the other plugins needs to be installed and reporting correctly for this to do so.
_Versions_
• Version 4.1.x is for eslint 9 with @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 5 - 8 • Version 4.0.x is for eslint 9 with @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 8 • Version 3.x.x is for eslint 8 with @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 6 - 7 • Version 2.x.x is for eslint 8 with @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin 5 • Version 1.x.x is for eslint 6 and 7.
Typescript
If running typescript with @typescript-eslint make sure to use both @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin and @typescript-eslint/parser.
React
If writing react code you need to install eslint-plugin-react and enable the two rules react/jsx-uses-react and react/jsx-uses-vars. Otherwise all imports for components will be reported unused.
