TypeScript 3.7 added support for the optional chain operator.
This operator allows you to safely access properties and methods on objects when they are potentially `null` or `undefined`.
```ts
type T = {
a?: {
b?: {
c: string;
method?: () => void;
};
};
};
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo?.a?.b?.c;
}
// is roughly equivalent to
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo && foo.a && foo.a.b && foo.a.b.c;
}
// or
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return (((foo || {}).a || {}).b || {}).c;
}
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo?.['a']?.b?.c;
}
// is roughly equivalent to
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo && foo['a'] && foo['a'].b && foo['a'].b.c;
}
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo?.a?.b?.method?.();
}
// is roughly equivalent to
function myFunc(foo: T | null) {
return foo && foo.a && foo.a.b && foo.a.b.method && foo.a.b.method();
}
```
Because the optional chain operator _only_ chains when the property value is `null` or `undefined`, it is much safer than relying upon logical AND operator chaining `&&`; which chains on any _truthy_ value.
## Rule Details
This rule aims enforce the usage of the safer operator.
Examples of code for this rule:
<!--tabs-->
### ❌ Incorrect
```ts
foo && foo.a && foo.a.b && foo.a.b.c;
foo && foo['a'] && foo['a'].b && foo['a'].b.c;
foo && foo.a && foo.a.b && foo.a.b.method && foo.a.b.method();
(((foo || {}).a || {}).b || {}).c;
(((foo || {})['a'] || {}).b || {}).c;
// this rule also supports converting chained strict nullish checks:
foo &&
foo.a != null &&
foo.a.b !== null &&
foo.a.b.c != undefined &&
foo.a.b.c.d !== undefined &&
foo.a.b.c.d.e;
```
### ✅ Correct
```ts
foo?.a?.b?.c;
foo?.['a']?.b?.c;
foo?.a?.b?.method?.();
foo?.a?.b?.c?.d?.e;
```
**Note:** there are a few edge cases where this rule will false positive. Use your best judgement when evaluating reported errors.
## Options
```jsonc
// .eslintrc.json
{
"rules": {
"@typescript-eslint/prefer-optional-chain": "warn"
}
}
```
This rule is not configurable.
## When Not To Use It
If you are not using TypeScript 3.7 (or greater), then you will not be able to use this rule, as the operator is not supported.
