no-require-imports

Disallow invocation of require().

Prefer the newer ES6-style imports over require().

.eslintrc.cjs
module.exports = {
  "rules": {
    "@typescript-eslint/no-require-imports": "warn"
  }
};

Examples

const lib1 = require('lib1');
const { lib2 } = require('lib2');
import lib3 = require('lib3');

import * as lib1 from 'lib1';
import { lib2 } from 'lib2';
import * as lib3 from 'lib3';

This rule is not configurable.

If you don't care about using newer module syntax, then you will not need this rule.
