# no-require-imports

[Added in v0.1.6](https://github.com/web-infra-dev/rslint/releases/tag/v0.1.6)
## Configuration

| Preset                              | Configured Value |
| ----------------------------------- | ---------------- |
| ✅ ts.configs.recommended            | `"error"`        |
| ✅ ts.configs.recommendedTypeChecked | `"error"`        |
| ✅ ts.configs.strict                 | `"error"`        |
| ✅ ts.configs.strictTypeChecked      | `"error"`        |


```ts title=rslint.config.ts
import { defineConfig, ts } from '@rslint/core';

export default defineConfig([
  ts.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      '@typescript-eslint/no-require-imports': 'error',
    },
  },
]);
```

## Rule Details

Disallow invocation of `require()`.

Prefer the newer ES6-style imports over `require()`. TypeScript projects should use `import` statements which provide better type safety and editor tooling support.

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```typescript
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require?.('path');
import foo = require('foo');
```

Examples of **correct** code for this rule:

```typescript
import fs from 'fs';
import * as path from 'path';
import { readFile } from 'fs';
```
