# disallow empty character classes in regular expressions (no-empty-character-class)
|
|
|
|
Because empty character classes in regular expressions do not match anything, they might be typing mistakes.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var foo = /^abc[]/;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Rule Details
|
|
|
|
This rule disallows empty character classes in regular expressions.
|
|
|
|
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
/*eslint no-empty-character-class: "error"*/
|
|
|
|
/^abc[]/.test("abcdefg"); // false
|
|
"abcdefg".match(/^abc[]/); // null
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
/*eslint no-empty-character-class: "error"*/
|
|
|
|
/^abc/.test("abcdefg"); // true
|
|
"abcdefg".match(/^abc/); // ["abc"]
|
|
|
|
/^abc[a-z]/.test("abcdefg"); // true
|
|
"abcdefg".match(/^abc[a-z]/); // ["abcd"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Known Limitations
|
|
|
|
This rule does not report empty character classes in the string argument of calls to the `RegExp` constructor.
|
|
|
|
Example of a *false negative* when this rule reports correct code:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
/*eslint no-empty-character-class: "error"*/
|
|
|
|
var abcNeverMatches = new RegExp("^abc[]");
|
|
```
