Btw, there’s a ticket opened for the related issue here:
https://github.com/eslint/eslint/issues/967
I would imagine if rules would ever start checking for correct configuration,
you could use the same mechanism to expose configuration properties.
Nicholas, I actually think this is a pretty high priority. We currently do not
expose a way to validate configuration, documentation is sometimes spotty on
which options are available and it’s generally hard to figure out what options
supposed to do for a lot of rules. I don’t think it’s critical and should be
done before 1.0.0, but I would suggest prioritizing it pretty high right after
first stable release.
Thanks,
Ilya Volodin

Subject: Re: [ESLint] Create rules config interactively
I'd much rather have an automated way of detecting what rules should be set
than an interactive way. Honestly, there's just no way we're going to get
people to update every rule to export the type of information you're looking
for.
I also don't think it's worthwhile to do anything of this sort prior to v1.0.0,
as rule names and settings could still change, so any tool could be obsolete or
create incorrect configurations.
You can, of course, work on anything you want, but we're not going to be
looking at anything in this regard until after v1.0.0 is released.

Does idea of interactive config creating is welcome to eslint? If so I will
create proof of concept piece of code.
btw, I'm thinking idea of rules exposing hash with values and code samples is
good enough for implementation. It flexible, testable, exposed data can be used
for docs. And these pattern fits good in other linters as well. What do you
think, Nicholas?

require updating every single we have. (We don't even really have a good way of
exposing possible options at this point.)
After we reach 1.0.0, I will be investigating auto-setup of rules. One
possibility is to have a special ESLint mode that, instead of reporting errors,
detects what is found in a specific file and uses that to create a config file.

"double"
That's it. Get rules with possible values and ask with code samples. This
requires linters to be able to expose both rules and values via api.
However, after a short discussion, we thought it might be much better to let
linter do it by itself.
I'd like to discuss this possibility.
