no-continue

continue jumps to the next iteration from the middle of the loop body. In a long loop, you have to find every continue to know which lines run for which items. An if around the rest of the body shows that in the structure of the code.

continue with a label is reported too.

Configure#

Off by default. To turn it on:

[lint.rules]
"no-continue" = "error" # or "warn"

Examples#

for (const user of users) {
  if (!user.active) {
    continue;
  }
  notify(user);
}

for (const user of users) {
  if (user.active) {
    notify(user);
  }
}

When not to use it#

A continue at the top of a loop works like an early return and saves a level of indentation. If you prefer that style, leave this rule off.
