Document usage of putout with a single rule or plugin about putout HOT 8 CLOSED

putout example.js --no-config --plugins remove-unused-variables works fine, thanks

from putout.

How can I use putout to apply a single rule, such as remove-unused-variables?

There is no such possibility, but it is a good idea for a pull request. Most rules is enabled because it is a good practice. I use putout for my projects, and I think that good defaults is much better then copying config file again and again. Anyways I'm ready to listen your ideas about improvements. And we can work on a pull request, if you interested.

Using putout --disable-all source.js seems to only disable rules which are currently violated in the source files being evaluated, not all rules comprehensively.

That's how it works, disable only what find.

Further, the documentation seems to be somewhat redundantly duplicated between the top level readme https://github.com/coderaiser/putout/blob/master/README.md and the readme in the putout package https://github.com/coderaiser/putout/blob/master/packages/putout/README.md which I find confusing.

That's right, because first one you see when you open repository, and second one you see in npm.

me too, I'd like to fix only remove-unused-variables

I opened oprogramador#1

@oprogramador could you please tell me why do you need it :)? There is a lot of useful rules, why to disable all of them?

@coderaiser

Because I want to only remove unused variables and the rest handle either with eslint autofix or manual updates.

@oprogramador

The thing is autofix of eslint does nothing that putout do, so I think you should try to use other rules as well.
From the first day putout was made to supplement what eslint does and do nothing that eslint already does.

So putout is more about logic, and eslint is more about formatting.

Take a look to:

• remove-unused-for-of-variables
• remove-unreferenced-variables
• remove-useless-variables

And much more :).
