Force ESLint to use ES6

I have my ESLint all set up and working, but I want it to throw errors whenever I don't use ES6 stuff like let, const or arrow functions (=>).

.eslintrc

{
  "env": {
    "node": true,
    "es6": true,
    "mocha": true
  },
  "rules": {
    "semi": 2
  },
  "parserOptions": {
    "ecmaVersion": 6,
    "sourceType": "script",
    "ecmaFeatures": {
      "arrowFunctions": true,
      "binaryLiterals": true,
      "blockBindings": true,
      "classes": true
    }
  }
}

Currently, this will not throw errors for:

main.js

var stars = [];
var speed = 20;

function setup() {
  createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight);

  // Create 1000 stars
  for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
    stars.push(new Star());
  }
}

You don't use i in your for loop so it's not an error.

You can use the no-var rule but it will effect everything, not only for loops.

If you would have used i in your for loop, then the no-loop-func rule is what you are looking for.

If you prefer arrow functions as callbacks you can use prefer-arrow-callback.

You can use the prefer-arrow-callback rule to enforce using arrow functions as callbacks.

Also the prefer-const rule enforces using const whenever possible (i.e. if the variable is never reassigned).
