Highlights
New APIs
CLIEngine now has a getRules() method. This is useful for integrations that need to look at rules’ metadata programmatically without knowing what rules might have been defined by plugins.
Rules now support messages metadata and messageId report parameters, including full support in RuleTester. This lets rule developers use messageIds in their rule tests and avoid needing to track report message changes in both the rule implementation and the corresponding test file. In addition, this is the first step towards core support for rule message localization.
New rule options
The indent rule now has an ignoreComments option. This allows users to opt out of indentation checks for comments if project style rules require that comments be indented in a different manner.
