JS.BASE.REQUIRE.YIELD

Require generator functions to contain 'yield'

Rule Details

This rule generates warnings for generator functions that do not have the yield keyword.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

Copy

/*eslint require-yield: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

function* foo() {
  return 10;
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

Copy

/*eslint require-yield: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

function* foo() {
  yield 5;
  return 10;
}

function foo() {
  return 10;
}

// This rule does not warn on empty generator functions.
function* foo() { }

When Not To Use It

If you don't want to notify generator functions that have no yield expression, then it's safe to disable this rule.
