create-lobe-lint

2.1.5 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript

CLI tool to scaffold LobeHub lint configurations. Current stable version 1.26.3, released 2025-11-24. Actively maintained with frequent releases. Detects package manager, TypeScript, and React framework; generates config files for ESLint, Prettier, Stylelint, Commitlint, Remarklint, and Semantic Release. Supports interactive mode and preset/manual selection. Only available as a CLI tool via npx; no programmatic API. Requires Node >=18.

Common errors

error npx: command not found ↓

cause Node.js or npm is not installed or not in PATH.

fix

Install Node.js from https://nodejs.org (version >=18). Verify with node -v && npm -v.

error Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find module 'create-lobe-lint' ↓

cause npx cannot resolve the package; possibly network issues or incorrect package name.

fix

Use npx create-lobe-lint@2.1.5 to specify the exact version, or check your internet connection.

Warnings

gotcha Running npx create-lobe-lint without --no-install will try to install npm packages globally, which may fail in restrictive environments. ↓

fix Use the --no-install flag to skip installation, then manually run your package manager's install command.

breaking Generated ESLint config now uses eslint.config.mjs (flat config) instead of .eslintrc. This requires ESLint >=9.0.0. ↓

fix Upgrade to ESLint 9+ and ensure no legacy .eslintrc files are present. If you need legacy config, use an older version of create-lobe-lint.

deprecated Generated Prettier config uses prettier.config.mjs, but older versions used .prettierrc. The .prettierrc format is still supported but deprecated by Prettier. ↓

fix If you prefer .prettierrc, rename the generated file to .prettierrc and adjust the format.

gotcha The --react flag expects a specific value (next, remix, vite, expo, true, false). Using an invalid value will cause the CLI to exit with an error. ↓

fix Use one of the accepted values: next, remix, vite, expo, true, false.

Quickstart

Creates a temporary project, initializes it, then runs create-lobe-lint with preset and yes flags to generate lint config files without installing dependencies.
