To add some context to the answer by @sai, to resolve this eslint error all I had to do was install eslint-plugin-cypress from here.

npm install eslint-plugin-cypress --save-dev

Then, in my eslint config I added one line to my extends array.

Your config could be .eslintrc.json or the "eslintConfig" configuration object in your package.json

{
  "extends": [
    "plugin:cypress/recommended"
  ]
}

Testing locally, this should work for you. Change path of your json file, and use your custom command cy.login. In my example I just printed variables to console. 

describe('The Login', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
      cy.readFile('cypress/integration/test/test.json').as("user")});
  it("Login", () => {
      cy.get("@user").then((user) =>
      cy.log(user.username, user.pass))
    })
  })

My test.json was:

{
  "username":"[email protected]",
  "pass":"pass"
}
