# enforce position of line comments (line-comment-position)
Line comments can be positioned above or beside code. This rule helps teams maintain a consistent style.
```js
// above comment
var foo = "bar"; // beside comment
```
## Rule Details
This rule enforces consistent position of line comments. Block comments are not affected by this rule. By default, this rule ignores comments starting with the following words: `eslint`, `jshint`, `jslint`, `istanbul`, `global`, `exported`, `jscs`, `falls through`.
## Options
This rule takes one argument, which can be a string or an object. The string settings are the same as those of the `position` property (explained below). The object option has the following properties:
### position
The `position` option has two settings:
* `above` (default) enforces line comments only above code, in its own line.
* `beside` enforces line comments only at the end of code lines.
#### position: above
Examples of **correct** code for the `{ "position": "above" }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "position": "above" }]*/
// valid comment
1 + 1;
```
Examples of **incorrect** code for the `{ "position": "above" }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "position": "above" }]*/
1 + 1; // invalid comment
```
#### position: beside
Examples of **correct** code for the `{ "position": "beside" }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "position": "beside" }]*/
1 + 1; // valid comment
```
Examples of **incorrect** code for the `{ "position": "beside" }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "position": "beside" }]*/
// invalid comment
1 + 1;
```
### ignorePattern
By default this rule ignores comments starting with the following words: `eslint`, `jshint`, `jslint`, `istanbul`, `global`, `exported`, `jscs`, `falls through`. An alternative regular expression can be provided.
Examples of **correct** code for the `ignorePattern` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "ignorePattern": "pragma" }]*/
1 + 1; // pragma valid comment
```
Examples of **incorrect** code for the `ignorePattern` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "ignorePattern": "pragma" }]*/
1 + 1; // invalid comment
```
### applyDefaultIgnorePatterns
Default ignore patterns are applied even when `ignorePattern` is provided. If you want to omit default patterns, set this option to `false`.
Examples of **correct** code for the `{ "applyDefaultIgnorePatterns": false }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "ignorePattern": "pragma", "applyDefaultIgnorePatterns": false }]*/
1 + 1; // pragma valid comment
```
Examples of **incorrect** code for the `{ "applyDefaultIgnorePatterns": false }` option:
```js
/*eslint line-comment-position: ["error", { "ignorePattern": "pragma", "applyDefaultIgnorePatterns": false }]*/
1 + 1; // falls through
```
**Deprecated:** the object property `applyDefaultPatterns` is deprecated. Please use the property `applyDefaultIgnorePatterns` instead.
## When Not To Use It
If you aren't concerned about having different line comment styles, then you can turn off this rule.
