## Usage

Simply [install the app](https://github.com/apps/eslint-disable-watcher) and the bot will keep 👀 on PRs that have `eslint-disable` comments.

## How it works

When a PR is opened or updated, the ESLint Disable Watcher will scan through the diffs of JavaScript files and comment if the PR is adding any strings containing `eslint-disable`.

## Configuration

You don't need any configuration for this to work in your project but you can customize a few things to fit your needs. You can create a `.github/eslint-disable-bot.yml` file:

```yml
# Change this to set the number of comments the watcher should comment on a given PR.
commentLimit: 10
# The message the bot will post on any lines containing a eslint disable comment.
commentMessage: Please don't disable eslint rules :pray:
```

If you need more configuration, please [let me know in a new issue](https://github.com/koddsson/eslint-disable-probot/issues/new?title=[Config]&body=Can%20you%20please%20add%20the%20___%20config%20option).
