Definition for rule 'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps' was not found

I am getting the following eslint error after adding // eslint-disable-next-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps in my code.

> 8:14 error Definition for rule 'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps' was not found

I referred to this post to fix this but the solution mentioned doesn't work in my case. Any clue how to suppress this eslint error?

PS I'm using standardjs in conjuction.

This typically happens because the react-hooks plugin is missing in the .eslintrc plugin configuration. Ensure you have added react-hooks as in the example below:

"plugins": ["react", "react-hooks",],

Make sure you define your react-hooks both in extends and plugins array like this

"extends": [
    "react-hooks",
  ],
  "plugins": [
    "react-hooks"
  ],

Make sure you have put the rule in the rules object in your .eslintrc. Installing the plugin alone is not enough for the rules to start working

"react-hooks/exhaustive-deps": "warn",

and I assume you have already added react-hooks plugin into the plugins array in the .eslintrc

Not a perfect solution but changing:

// eslint-disable-next-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps

to:

// eslint-disable-next-line

suppressed that error.

Assuming you are using vscode and you have in your package.json the necessary packages such as

"eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "^4.3.0",

and in your eslintrc.js

what the other answers have suggested then you might have to just restart

ESLint: Restart ESLint Server from

cmd/ctrl + shift + P

Put below code to package.json

"eslintConfig": {
  "extends": "react-app"
}
