unicorn/prefer-includes Style
What it does
Prefer includes()
over indexOf()
when checking for existence or non-existence. All built-ins have .includes()
in addition to .indexOf()
.
Why is this bad?
The .includes()
method is more readable and less error-prone than .indexOf()
.
Examples
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
javascript
if (str.indexOf("foo") !== -1) {

javascript
if (str.includes("foo")) {
}

bash
oxlint --deny unicorn/prefer-includes

"rules": {
