node/no-process-env Restriction

What it does

Disallows use of process.env.

Why is this bad?

Directly reading process.env can lead to implicit runtime configuration, make code harder to test, and bypass configuration validation.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

js
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "development") {
  // ...
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

js
import config from "./config";

if (config.env === "development") {
  // ...
}

Configuration

allowedVariables

type: string[]

How to use

To enable this rule in the CLI or using the config file, you can use:

bash
oxlint --deny node/no-process-env --node-plugin
json
{
  "plugins": ["node"],
  "rules": {
    "node/no-process-env": "error"
  }
}
