my npm-lint is throwing error "missing script: lint"

Question

I am trying to run npm run locally, and ran npm init, that created package.json. Here is my package.json

    "name": "ironic-ui",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "description": "======================== Team and repository tags    ========================",
    "main": "test-shim.js",
    "directories": {
    "doc": "doc"
   },
    "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
   },
    "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "https://git.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-ui"
  },
    "author": "",
    "license": "ISC"
 }

Is there missing something? Or do i need to install something more? I am getting an error "Missing script: lint" Thanks

What command are you running that results in the error message? — Deadron, Jun 13 '17 at 18:36

You need to setup linter and add lint command in your package.json Many linter are available. Assuming you setup eslint https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint

it would look something like this

// package.json
{ 
  //...
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "eslint.js"
  }
}

I have like this, "lint": "eslint --no-color ironic_ui/static" – user3339691 Jun 13 '17 at 19:16
get rid of `ironic_ui/static` part and try again `npm run lint path_to_the_file_name.js ` – roxxypoxxy Jun 13 '17 at 19:17

@roxxypoxxy This is simpler: `"lint": "eslint"` – RyanZim Jun 13 '17 at 19:18
@RyanZim That's true and will work, but I usually local scope my scripts just make sure I use the same version that is defined in my package.json, not the global :) – roxxypoxxy Jun 13 '17 at 19:20

@roxxypoxxy The local installation always takes precedence over the global in a script – RyanZim Jun 13 '17 at 20:48
Ahh gotcha..thanks for this info. I'll update my answer. – roxxypoxxy Jun 13 '17 at 20:54
If i remove that "ironic_ui/static" then i am getting the error http://paste.openstack.org/show/612582/ – user3339691 Jun 14 '17 at 18:49
@roxxypoxxy getting the above error, it is saying missing node_modules – user3339691 Jun 14 '17 at 18:50
@user3339691make sure you have installed `eslint`. `npm i eslint -S` – roxxypoxxy Jun 16 '17 at 16:05
@roxxypoxxy: i installed that and this is the error i am getting http://paste.openstack.org/show/612888/ – user3339691 Jun 16 '17 at 18:02
Error: Cannot find module 'eslint-config-openstack' means that you'll need to install that too `npm i eslint-config-openstack -S`, `-S` to save that to package.json – roxxypoxxy Jun 16 '17 at 18:05
@roxxypoxxy: Sorry, somehow stack overflow did not notified me about the message. I installed the package as you suggested, and also installed eslint-plugin-angular and it worked like charm :) – user3339691 Jun 19 '17 at 23:08

Add this script to your package.json file: "lint": "./node_modules/.bin/eslint ."

"lint": "./node_modules/.bin/eslint" without space and period at the end worked for me – stepheaw Nov 14 '18 at 05:26

Should not be removing eslint, instead should try to configure it to make it work to your preferences.

However, if you need to remove it because of time or other constraint

From firebase.json delete "npm --prefix \"$RESOURCE_DIR\" run lint"
From Package.json delete "lint": "eslint .", (should be within the scripts:)
Also from Package.json delete these devDependencies

"eslint": "^7.6.0",
"eslint-config-google": "^0.14.0"`

Delete this file from repo `.eslintrc.js
Then run npm i

then you should be able to run firebase deploy

If you want to remove eslint from your Firebase Functions project, you can go to firebase.json and delete the line npm --prefix \"$RESOURCE_DIR\" run lint (inside predeploy). After this, you can delete the .eslintrc.json file inside your functions project

I got the same problem.

I deleted functions folder, .firebaserc and firebase.json.

Then reinstalled firebase-tools

npm install -g firebase-tools

After firebase init, chose functions, it asked

Do you want to use ESLint to catch probable .....?.

I typed No.

It worked fine for me.

Or simply remove `"npm --prefix \"$RESOURCE_DIR\" run lint"` from `firebase.json`'s `predeploy`. – Akshay K Nair Feb 19 '22 at 19:06

I ran into this issue when after setting up a firebase functions project inside a project that already had a firebase function elsewhere. It seems that firebase init doesn't necessarily know which project to set as "source" in firebase.json.

In my case, firebase.json simply pointed to the wrong source dir. I corrected it to point the my intended directory - issue solves.

Note: In my case, linting was desired, so removing linting was not the solution.

I get the exact same problem when I do: firebase deploy --only functions (-- only functions is optional), it redirects me to

npm --prefix %RESOURCE_DIR% run lint

It worked fine for me when I removed lint, thus having:

npm --prefix %RESOURCE_DIR% run

only.

"Removing lint" is never an appropriate answer – Chad Bingham Feb 12 '18 at 18:10

For me i was just running the command without entering the function folder so it was not finding it i was just running this function on the project folder. So run cd function in your cmd if your are just in the project folder then run the command again but if the script is not in your package.json as mentioned above or you said no to eslint/lint when you initialized your firebase project lint wont work but others command that exist in your scripts work.

Editing package.json from "lint": "eslint .", to "lint": "eslint", worked for me.
