Rule: static-this

Ban the use of this in static methods.

Rationale

Static this usage can be confusing for newcomers. It can also become imprecise when used with extended classes when a static this of a parent class no longer specifically refers to the parent class.

Notes:

Config

Code examples:

"rules": { "static-this": true }

class Pass {
    static getName() {
        return 'name'
    }

    static getFullname() {
        return `full ${Pass.getName()}`
    }
}

class Fail {
    static getName() {
        return 'name'
    }

    static getFullname() {
        return `full ${this.getName()}`
    }
}
