Eslint does not recognize "async", but I have specified "ecmaVersion":"8"

See original GitHub issue

I am not sure if this is a bug or not so I am asking here.

I have specified this in packages.json:

"eslintConfig": { "parserOptions": { "ecmaVersion": "8" } },

I am not sure this is the correct syntax since the docs are a bit unclear to me.

But I get parsing errors on async. What is wrong here?

Ah, and this is during firebase deploy. Maybe there is something special there?

Hi @lborgman, just to be sure, could you try changing “ecmaVersion” to a number? (Not sure if we have an auto-convert somewhere.)

Might also be worth checking the firebase docs to see if there’s a way to get debug output, in case it might show how it invokes ESLint.

@lborgman I think we could maybe accept a PR which would emit a warning of some kind when we’ve seen an .eslintrc.* file, but also see eslintConfig in package.json, to at least state that the eslintConfig is being ignored due to the presence of config files. Would you like to make a separate issue for that change?
