no-restricted-imports allow patterns to have custom message in config

The version of ESLint you are using. v6.8.0

The problem you want to solve.

Currently the no-restricted-imports rule config allows us to configure custom message for paths. Proposal is to extend the capability to patterns as well.

"no-restricted-imports": [	
  "error",
  {
	"patterns": [
		"@lodash/*"
	]
}]

Will give us the below linting error when we do "import get from "lodash/get" "@lodash/* restricted by a pattern"

The error is not informative, something like this will be helpful"@lodash/* restricted by a pattern, {{ customMessage }}", so that we can give additional information why we did such pattern restriction.

Your take on the correct solution to problem.

A change in rule config schema for accepting custom message for pattern and modify the eslint output to print the custom message along with the actual output "@lodash/* restricted by a pattern, {{ customMessage }}".

Are you willing to submit a pull request to implement this change?

Yes

I think we already have an accepted issue for this enhancement: #11843
