Node version: v16.14.0

Operating System: Fedora release 36 (Thirty Six)

What parser are you using?

Default (Espree)

What did you do?

package.json

Notice type is module.

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "eslint": "^8.23.1"
  },
  "license": "ISC",
  "name": "eslint-all-cjs",
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "eslint --fix ."
  },
  "type": "module",
  "version": "1.0.0"
}

eslint.config.js

Using the new flat config file format. The default languageOptions sourceType should be commonjs for .cjs files.

export default ["eslint:all"];

index.cjs

A .cjs file that ESLint should consider to be a commonjs file.

module.exports = function identity (value) {

    return value;

};

What did you expect to happen?

Expected: a message to use the global form of "use strict".

Why: the docs for rule strict say:

This rule has a string option:

• "safe" (default) corresponds either of the following options:
  • "global" if ESLint considers a file to be a CommonJS module
  • "function" otherwise

The file ends with .cjs, so ESLint should recommend "global".

What actually happened?

A message to use the function form:

/path/to/eslint-all-cjs/index.cjs
  1:18  error  Use the function form of 'use strict'  strict
