oxc/bad-replace-all-arg Correctness ​

✅ This rule is turned on by default.

What it does ​

Why is this bad? ​

The replaceAll method replaces all occurrences of a string with another string. If the global flag (g) is not used in the regular expression, only the first occurrence of the string will be replaced.

Examples ​

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

javascript
withSpaces.replaceAll(/\s+/, ",");

Examples of correct code for this rule:
