Description

New Feature / Enhancement Checklist
Current Limitation

Currently, lint rules not require an empty new line at the end of a file.

  • This requirement should be consistent across repos, we currently require it in the the Parse Android SDK.

  • There is a good argument for adding the rule:

    Trailing newlines in non-empty files are a common UNIX idiom. Benefits of trailing newlines include the ability to concatenate or append to files as well as output files to the terminal without interfering with shell prompts.

Feature / Enhancement Description

Add lint rule eol-last.

Research direction

Start by locating the repository's ESLint configuration and checking how existing lint rules are defined. Enable the requested eol-last rule, then run the lint checks; done means files are required to end with a newline and the lint run passes.
