How to remove eslint plugin eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y?

Question

I have eslint (of Airbnb coding style) setup for my React project, which has dependency of "eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y", which I do not want for my current project.

My question how to remove this specific plugin "eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y".

When I uninstall "eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y" it gives error following error:

"Failed to load plugin jsx-a11y: Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y'"

Is there any way to solve above issue ?

Answer 1

The answer of Alberto Perez is valid if you include jsx-a11y plugin explicitly. But if you extend another plugin that contains jsx-a11y his approach doesn't work.

If so you can use this:

1st solution

https://github.com/mradionov/eslint-plugin-disable

At the moment it doesn't support eslint@8. See the issue.

2nd solution

https://github.com/airbnb/javascript/issues/2032#issuecomment-568934232

const a11yOff = Object.keys(require('eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y').rules)
    .reduce((acc, rule) => { acc[`jsx-a11y/${rule}`] = 'off'; return acc }, {})

module.exports = {
    rules: {
        ...a11yOff,
        // your rules
    },
}
