How to configure the eslint extension in vscode?

Question

The vscode eslint extension says:

Configuration Options

• eslint.enable: enable/diable eslint. Is enabled by default.
• eslint.options: an option bag as defined by the ESLint API here. Defaults to an empty option bag.

I cannot figure out where to configure the eslint extension? Searching configure in the commands results in nothing.

You can add extension-level configuration in the VSCode settings.json file. Open this through the command palette:

• Press F1
• Type "user settings"
• Press Enter

Add the rules in eslint.options like this, according to the ESLint documentation:

// Place your settings in this file to overwrite the default settings {     "eslint.options": {         "rules": {             "quotes": [2, "double"]         }     } }

You can add this to workspace-level configuration by opening "workspace settings" through the command palette. This will create a ./vscode/settings.json file in your project.
