tripleSlashReferenceValidity

Reports invalid triple-slash reference directives.

✅ This rule is included in the ts logical presets.

Triple-slash reference directives must use valid directive types and proper formatting. Only lib, no-default-lib, path, and types are valid directive attributes.

Examples

❌ Incorrect

/// <reference foo="bar" />
export const value = 1;

/// <reference types />
export const value = 1;

✅ Correct

/// <reference types="node" />
export const value = 1;

/// <reference types="node" />
export const value = 1;

Options

This rule is not configurable.

When Not To Use It

If you are using tooling other than TypeScript that uses different triple-slash reference directives, this rule might not be for you.
