ESLint v9 contains breaking API changes
Is there an existing issue for this?

Description Overview
Upon bumping to the ESLint beta for v9, I was met with several errors in my monorepo during the linting test-run.
Namely:
- Error:
context.getScope is not a function
- Rule:
"react/no-string-refs"
- Rule:
- Error:
context.getFirstTokens is not a function
- Rule:
"react/display-name"
- Rule:
I get that it's still only a beta, but these API changes were announced in september 2023.
Additionally, there are some rule structure changes outlined separately that may be worth ensuring are in compliance.
Expected Behavior
Given that ESLint v9 is now in beta, I wasn't expecting to find any plugins that haven't yet addressed the API changes
eslint-plugin-react version
v7.34.0
eslint version
v9.0.0-beta.1
node version
v18.12.0
That expectation is flawed; the point of it being in beta is for plugins to begin to address the changes - announcements are irrelevant. Thanks for the report.
A fix for this will also need to add eslint 9 into the test matrix.
I put up a branch running tests on eslint 9; https://github.com/ljharb/eslint-plugin-react/actions/runs/8147742013/job/22269131527#step:5:21 is failing because the jsx-no-undef
and jsx-uses-react
and jsx-uses-vars
tests call linter.defineRule
. @bmish, any thoughts on an approach here?
Additionally, when I comment out those 3 lines, i get 22166 failures because Error: ESLint configuration in rule-tester is invalid: Key "parserOptions": This appears to be in eslintrc format rather than flat config format.
. Does this mean eslint 9 drops support for eslintrc, or it's just no longer the default?
If the former, how can we run the same tests with both normal eslintrc stuff on eslint 8, and also with flat config on eslint 9?
ESLint 9 makes the flat config the default. It renames the ESLintRC style classes to be LegacyESLint
and the Linter requires an option of {configType: "eslintrc"}
, and in ESLint 10, they plan on dropping the legacy config altogether.
There's a migration guide that might be a good place to start in terms of compiling a list of required tasks for this
Awesome, thanks for the pointers.
That will help get us unblocked for eslint 9, but we'll still have a lot of work to support eslint 10.
Is there any update on this yet? Or is this still quite far off? The first release candidate for v9 released last week
@james-yeoman it is almost never the case that all the plugins in the eslint ecosystem support a new major until awhile after the final release is out. It'd be great to beat that, but if there'd been any update, it'd be in this issue :-)
Eslint officially released v9.0.0 today. Hope this plugin will support it soon!
Getting TypeError: context.getScope is not a function
here
I'd like to continue using this plugin, but this bug is unfortunately stopping me.
I hope we get to see a fix soon!
Nobody’s forcing you to upgrade to eslint 9 right away ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ new eslint majors always take months before everything supports them, and this one will take longer because it’s changing the default config format.
and this one will take longer because it’s changing the default config format.
Having worked on a couple of other plugins, I want to elaborate that I think there's two parts to this upgrade.
The real breaking change for v9 is the fact that v9 has removed APIs - it looks like this is being covered in #3727.
The second change is flat config compatibility. Consumers can use the plugin as-is (as long as the API issues are resolved). It is slightly more work, but it is possible. Of course, supporting the flat config natively makes it easier, and ESLint has a good migration guide should anyone wanting to upgrade to v9 feel like contributing a patch (I might eventually, but I have several other plugins that I'm focussing on).
That expectation is flawed; the point of it being in beta is for plugins to begin to address the changes - announcements are irrelevant. Thanks for the report.
A fix for this will also need to add eslint 9 into the test matrix.
@ljharb Does this mean that eslint 9 is still raw for full use?
it means you can’t use eslint 9 with this plugin yet. It often takes many months when a new eslint major comes out before enough of the ecosystem supports it - you shouldn’t expect to upgrade right away.
Thanks for your work on this plugin, @ljharb! Seems totally reasonable to take some time to support ESLint 9, and anyone who reeeeeeally needs to be on the latest and greatest should consider hiring you (if you're available for such work) or volunteering their time to make it happen. Since I'm not able to do that myself at the moment, I'm happy to wait to upgrade ESLint.
Scott, that's a perfect answer :) Thanks all!
The same problem occurs with eslint-plugin-solid. fyi.

Reverted my global installation of eslint to 8.57.0. A case of TLDR;
Indeed, you simply can't upgrade to eslint 9 until all of your eslint plugins/configs have explicit peer dep support for it. (this is true for every eslint major)
Hey, the reason for error (and backward's compatible implementation) can be found here: https://eslint.org/blog/2023/09/preparing-custom-rules-eslint-v9/#context.getscope()
As for sourceCode.getFirstTokens()
it's here: https://eslint.org/blog/2023/09/preparing-custom-rules-eslint-v9/#from-context-to-sourcecode
Also getting the error for these rules:
'react/no-direct-mutation-state': 0,
'react/require-render-return': 0,
'react/no-string-refs': 0,
'react/jsx-uses-react': 0,
'react/react-in-jsx-scope': 0,
'react/no-danger-with-children': 0,
'react/jsx-no-undef': 0,
'react/jsx-uses-vars': 0,
Thanks for all your hard work on this, maintainers.
Until support for eslint v9 is ready, you can create a fresh v8 config with:
npm install -D eslint@8
npm init @eslint/config@0
Hi, I'm listing all the problematic rules that I faced when migrated to eslint 9 with the eslint-plugin-react:
react/no-string-refs react/display-name react/no-direct-mutation-state react/require-render-return react/jsx-no-undef react/jsx-uses-vars react/no-typos react/no-array-index-key react/prefer-stateless-function react/no-access-state-in-setstate react/jsx-fragments react/jsx-max-depth react/jsx-no-constructed-context-values react/no-unstable-nested-components react/function-component-definition react/destructuring-assignment react/no-unused-prop-types
I'm not a maintainer here, but listing the details of what's failing is not going to help this move forward. The list will be obvious to anyone running the tests with v9. They effectively amount to "me too" comments that are only really serving to spam everyone with email.
If you look around, you'll see there is ongoing work towards v9 by contributors - #3743 and #3727. Be patient or help out. Adding extra comments here isn't going to help.
I found the ESLint Compatibility Utilities worked for me. CodeSandbox example: https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/billowing-tree-wp33ds
npm install --save-dev @eslint/compat
eslint.config.mjs
:
import { fixupConfigRules } from "@eslint/compat";
import reactRecommended from "eslint-plugin-react/configs/recommended.js";
import globals from "globals";
export default [
...fixupConfigRules(reactRecommended),
{
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.browser,
},
parserOptions: {
ecmaFeatures: {
jsx: true,
},
},
},
rules: {
"react/react-in-jsx-scope": "off",
},
settings: {
react: {
version: "detect",
},
},
},
];
package.json
:
{
"scripts": {
"lint": "eslint"
},
"dependencies": {
"globals": "^15.2.0",
"react": "^18",
"react-dom": "^18"
},
"devDependencies": {
"@eslint/compat": "^1.0.1",
"eslint": "^9.2.0",
"eslint-plugin-react": "^7.34.1"
}
}
Even with the use of @eslint/compat
, installation remains an issue. Shall we continue to install eslint-plugin-react
using npm install --force
?
@onlywei no, you should continue to hold off upgrading to eslint 9 until all of the eslint-related packages you use support it.

@saltycrane thanks for your comment above, this was helpful!
For anyone who is not using the recommended
config but rather just configuring the plugin and its rules manually, the fixupPluginRules
compatibility util from @eslint/compat
may be what you're looking for.
First, install @eslint/compat
as a dev dependency. Then, use fixupPluginRules
in your config:
eslint.config.mjs
import { fixupPluginRules } from '@eslint/compat';
import react from 'eslint-plugin-react';
import globals from 'globals';
export default [
{
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.browser,
},
parserOptions: {
ecmaFeatures: {
jsx: true,
},
},
},
plugins: {
react: fixupPluginRules(react),
},
rules: {
// Error on creating components within components
// https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react/blob/master/docs/rules/no-unstable-nested-components.md
'react/no-unstable-nested-components': 'error',
},
settings: {
react: {
version: 'detect',
},
},
},
];
@ljharb it looks like the code changes have been merged, and the only task left is to make the rule tests work with ESLint v9?
@mdjermanovic those were just the deprecations, which are the easy part. next we need tested flat config support, and then figuring out how to test on eslint 9 since we need to simultaneously test on eslintrc in a bunch of older versions (unfortunately since RuleTester doesn’t obey the eslintrc env var, this work can’t be delayed until after shipping v9 support)
