eslint-global-patch

From ESLint@6 the possibility got removed to use global configs and plugins. This npm package will patch you ESLint installation to add support back.

THIS IS A HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND UGLY PACKAGE! ONLY USE AT YOUR OWN RISK IN CASE THERE IS NO OTHER WAY!

This package will basically do a string-replace on your eslint installation. When it'll try to resolve a plugin/config relative to your source file and if it fails, it will try to find them also relative to the patched file: eslint/lib/shared/relative-module-resolver.js.

This package can stop working with any ESLint update, I'll try to update it ASAP. For now the versioning strategy is to use the same ESLint version number where the braking change introduced.

Usage:

npm i eslint-global-patch

The script will patch ESLint on postinstall automatically.

Why not create an issue at ESLint?
