Failed to compile create-react-app due to lint warnings after ejecting

Question

I've been following a React course. The next step has been using npm run eject so that css modules can be used.

Since ejecting I can't use npm start. The page fails to compile. A long list of linting warnings appear (which actually appear to be from the webpack config files).

I have created a .eslintignore file for these and other files:

./reactNotes.jsx
./nodeTest.js
./config
./scripts

But neither my code editor (vs code) or webpack seems to notice this file. eslint is installed globally.

I have also investigated the webpack config for eslint with options like exclude:

  {
    test: /\.(js|jsx|mjs)$/,
    enforce: 'pre',
    use: [
      {
        options: {
          formatter: eslintFormatter,
          eslintPath: require.resolve('eslint'),
        },
        loader: require.resolve('eslint-loader'),
      },
    ],
    include: paths.appSrc,
    exclude: /config/
  }

VS Code has eslint enabled in my user settings.

How can I set up webpack (and maybe even vs code) to ignore directories and files?

update: here is .eslintrc:

{
    "parser": "babel-eslint",
    "extends": "react-app",
    "plugins": [
        "react",
        "jsx-a11y",
        "import"
    ],
    "rules": {
        "linebreak-style": [
            "error",
            "windows"
        ],
        "indent": [
            "error",
            4
        ],
        "react/prop-types": 0,
        "react/jsx-indent": 0,
        "jsx-a11y/click-events-have-key-events": 0,
        "jsx-a11y/no-noninteractive-element-interactions": 0,
        "max-len": 0,
        "arrow-body-style": 0,
        "react/jsx-indent-props": 0,
        "react/no-unescaped-entities": 0,
        "react/jsx-no-bind": 0,
        "arrow-parens": 0,
        "react/no-array-index-key": 0
    }
}

Also npm install and restarting the browser do not work.

Answer 1

in your eslintigonre, try change

./config
./scripts

to

config/
scripts/

In ESLint's doc, it stats:

Ignore patterns behave according to the .gitignore specification

You can find the full specification here
