# import/default 💼 This rule is enabled in the following configs: ❗ `errors`, ☑️ `recommended`. If a default import is requested, this rule will report if there is no default export in the imported module. For [ES7], reports if a default is named and exported but is not found in the referenced module. Note: for packages, the plugin will find exported names from [`jsnext:main`], if present in `package.json`. Redux's npm module includes this key, and thereby is lintable, for example. A module path that is [ignored] or not [unambiguously an ES module] will not be reported when imported. [ignored]: ../README.md#importignore [unambiguously an ES module]: https://github.com/bmeck/UnambiguousJavaScriptGrammar ## Rule Details Given: ```js // ./foo.js export default function () { return 42 } // ./bar.js export function bar() { return null } // ./baz.js module.exports = function () { /* ... */ } // node_modules/some-module/index.js exports.sharedFunction = function shared() { /* ... */ } ``` The following is considered valid: ```js import foo from './foo' // assuming 'node_modules' are ignored (true by default) import someModule from 'some-module' ``` ...and the following cases are reported: ```js import bar from './bar' // no default export found in ./bar import baz from './baz' // no default export found in ./baz ``` ## When Not To Use It If you are using CommonJS and/or modifying the exported namespace of any module at runtime, you will likely see false positives with this rule. This rule currently does not interpret `module.exports = ...` as a `default` export, either, so such a situation will be reported in the importing module. ## Further Reading - Lee Byron's [ES7] export proposal - [`import/ignore`] setting - [`jsnext:main`] (Rollup) [ES7]: https://github.com/leebyron/ecmascript-more-export-from [`import/ignore`]: ../../README.md#importignore [`jsnext:main`]: https://github.com/rollup/rollup/wiki/jsnext:main
