#avoid-new

#Configuration

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

export default defineConfig([
  promisePlugin.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      'promise/avoid-new': 'error',
    },
  },
]);

Disallow creating new promises outside of utility libs (use util.promisify instead).

#Rule Details

This rule discourages using the new Promise constructor directly. When promisifying callback-based functions, prefer Node's util.promisify. When wrapping a plain value or error, prefer Promise.resolve() or Promise.reject().

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

var x = new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {});
new Promise();
Thing(new Promise(() => {}));

Examples of correct code for this rule:

Promise.resolve();
Promise.reject();
Promise.all();
new Horse();
new PromiseLikeThing();
new Promise.resolve();
