Steiger
Universal file structure and project architecture linter.
[!NOTE] The project is in beta and in active development. Some APIs may change.
[!NOTE] Version 0.5.0 introduced a new config file format. We have a codemod to automatically update your config, see the migration guide.
Features
- Built-in set of rules to validate adherence to Feature-Sliced Design
- Watch mode
- Rule configurability
Installation
npm i -D steiger
# If you want to check compliance to Feature-Sliced Design, also install this:
npm i -D @feature-sliced/steiger-plugin
Usage
npx steiger ./src
To run in watch mode, add -w
/--watch
to the command:
npx steiger ./src --watch
Configuration
Steiger is zero-config! If you don't want to disable certain rules, you can safely skip this section.
Steiger is configurable via cosmiconfig
. That means that you can create a steiger.config.ts
or steiger.config.js
file in the root of your project to configure the rules. Import { defineConfig } from "steiger"
to get autocompletion.
The config file shape is highly inspired by ESLint's config file, so if you have configured ESLint before, you'll find it easy to configure Steiger.
Example
// ./steiger.config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'steiger'
import fsd from '@feature-sliced/steiger-plugin'
export default defineConfig([
...fsd.configs.recommended,
{
// disable the `public-api` rule for files in the Shared layer
files: ['./src/shared/**'],
rules: {
'fsd/public-api': 'off',
},
},
])
[!TIP] If you want Steiger to ignore certain files, add an object like this to the config array:
defineConfig([, /* … */ { ignores: ['**/__mocks__/**'] }])
javascript
// ./steiger.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'steiger'
import fsd from '@feature-sliced/steiger-plugin'
export default defineConfig([
...fsd.configs.recommended,
{
// ignore all mock files for all rules
ignores: ['**/__mocks__/**'],
},
{
files: ['./src/shared/**'],
rules: {
// disable public-api rule for files in /shared folder
'fsd/public-api': 'off',
},
},
{
files: ['./src/widgets/**'],
ignores: ['**/discount-offers/**'],
rules: {
// disable no-segmentless-slices rule for all widgets except /discount-offers
'fsd/no-segmentless-slices': 'off',
},
},
])

Migration from 0.4.0
Version 0.5.0 introduced a new config file format. Follow the instructions to migrate your config file.
Rules
Currently, Steiger is not extendable with more rules, though that will change in the near future. The built-in rules check for the project's adherence to Feature-Sliced Design.
Rule | Description |
---|---|
fsd/ambiguous-slice-names | Forbid slice names that that match some segment’s name in the Shared layer. |
fsd/excessive-slicing | Forbid having too many ungrouped slices or too many slices in a group. |
fsd/forbidden-imports | Forbid imports from higher layers and cross-imports between slices on the same layer. |
fsd/no-cross-imports | [disabled] Forbid cross-imports between slices on the same layer. |
fsd/no-higher-level-imports | [disabled] Forbid imports from higher layers. |
fsd/inconsistent-naming | Ensure that all entities are named consistently in terms of pluralization. |
fsd/insignificant-slice | Detect slices that have just one reference or no references to them at all. |
fsd/no-layer-public-api | Forbid index files on the layer level. |
fsd/no-public-api-sidestep | Forbid going around the public API of a slice to import directly from an internal module in a slice. |
fsd/no-reserved-folder-names | Forbid subfolders in segments that have the same name as other conventional segments. |
fsd/no-segmentless-slices | Forbid slices that don't have any segments. |
fsd/no-segments-on-sliced-layers | Forbid segments (like ui, lib, api ...) that appear directly in sliced layer folders (entities, features, ...) |
fsd/no-ui-in-app | Forbid having the ui segment on the App layer. |
fsd/public-api | Require slices (and segments on sliceless layers like Shared) to have a public API definition. |
fsd/repetitive-naming | Ensure that all entities are named consistently in terms of pluralization. |
fsd/segments-by-purpose | Discourage the use of segment names that group code by its essence, and instead encourage grouping by purpose |
fsd/shared-lib-grouping | Forbid having too many ungrouped modules in shared/lib . |
fsd/typo-in-layer-name | Ensure that all layers are named without any typos. |
fsd/no-processes | Discourage the use of the deprecated Processes layer. |
fsd/import-locality | [disabled] Require that imports from the same slice be relative and imports from one slice to another be absolute. |
