#prefer-global/url-search-params

#Configuration

import { defineConfig, nodePlugin } from '@rslint/core';

export default defineConfig([
  nodePlugin.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      'node/prefer-global/url-search-params': 'error',
    },
  },
]);

#Rule details

Enforces consistent use of the global URLSearchParams or the URLSearchParams export from url and node:url. Module references include require(), process.getBuiltinModule(), and static imports and re-exports.

#Options

This rule accepts one string option:

• "always" (default): use the global URLSearchParams.
• "never": use URLSearchParams from the module.

Enable Node.js globals in the configuration:

import { globals } from "@rslint/core";

export default [
  {
    plugins: ["node"],
    languageOptions: { globals: globals.node },
    rules: {
      "node/prefer-global/url-search-params": ["error", "always"],
    },
  },
];

#always

Examples of incorrect code:

const { URLSearchParams } = require("url");
const params = new URLSearchParams();

import { URLSearchParams as Params } from "node:url";

Examples of correct code:

const params = new URLSearchParams();

#never

Examples of incorrect code:

const params = new URLSearchParams();

Examples of correct code:

const { URLSearchParams } = require("node:url");
const params = new URLSearchParams();

Global references respect configured globals and local bindings. For example, a function parameter named URLSearchParams is not reported with "never".

This rule has no automatic fix or suggestions.
