vue/require-direct-export Style

What it does ​

This rule requires that the component object be directly exported.

Why is this bad? ​

Indirect exports can make it harder to understand the component structure and may cause issues with Vue's component system.

Examples ​

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

vue
<script>
const A = {};
export default A;
</script>
vue
<script>
export default function () {}
</script>

Examples of correct code for this rule:

vue
<script>
export default {};
</script>
vue
<script>
export default function (props) {
  return h("div", props.msg);
}
</script>

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the disallowFunctionalComponentFunction: true option:

vue
<script>
export default (props) => h("div", props.msg);
</script>

Configuration ​

This rule accepts a configuration object with the following properties:

disallowFunctionalComponentFunction ​

type: boolean

default: false

When set true, disallow functional component functions.

How to use ​

To enable this rule using the config file or in the CLI, you can use:

json
{
  "plugins": ["vue"],
  "rules": {
    "vue/require-direct-export": "error"
  }
}
ts
import { defineConfig } from "oxlint";

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: ["vue"],
  rules: {
    "vue/require-direct-export": "error",
  },
});
bash
oxlint --deny vue/require-direct-export --vue-plugin

Version ​

This rule was added in v1.69.0.
