eslint-plugin-enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer

This ESLint rule enforces that any Uint8Array type declaration explicitly includes as its generic parameter.
An auto-fix feature is also implemented.

Using ensures compatibility with WebCrypto APIs, Blobs, and other browser features, following a TS change in v5.9 the default ArrayBufferLike parameter is no longer guaranteed to be compatible with ArrayBuffer (due to differences with SharedArrayBuffer) .

Installation

``sh
npm i --save-dev @protontech/eslint-plugin-enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer
`

Usage

Add the plugin and rule to your ESLint config:

`js
import pluginEnforceUint8ArrayArrayBuffer from '@protontech/eslint-plugin-enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer';

export default defineConfig({
plugins: {
'@protontech/enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer': pluginEnforceUint8ArrayArrayBuffer,
},
rules: {
'@protontech/enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer/enforce-uint8array-arraybuffer': 'error',
}
})
`

Example behavior

These usages are correct:

`ts
const a = new Uint8Array(); // this is automatically instantiated as Uint8Array
function f(data: Uint8Array) {}
type T = Promise[]>;
`

While these will trigger eslint errors (Uint8Array must be used as Uint8Array), but can be auto-fixed.

`ts
function f(data: Uint8Array) {} // missingGeneric error
type T = Promise; // missingGeneric error
`

If a generic argument is specified other than ArrayBuffer, the linter will also error (Uint8Array generic argument must be exactly 'ArrayBuffer'), but it will require manual resolution:

`ts
function f(data: Uint8Array) {} // wrongGeneric error
