eslint --fix not working when running by npm

Question

eslint --fix option is not working when i run it through npm. Here is my package.json scripts

"scripts":            
{
    "start": "nodemon ./server.js --exec babel-node",          
    "lint": "eslint ./data/* --format html  --output-file ./finalresult.html --fix ; exit 0"
}

when I run it using command npm run lint report is generating but without fixing. But if I am running the same command

eslint ./data/* --format html --output-file ./finalresult.html --fix

from console it is generating report after fix.Why is it so? Am I doing anything wrong? Can Anyone please help me

is the version of eslint in your node modules same as it is globally? Or are you sure the errors are fix-able? — tbking

Hi @tbking you were spot on. In my package .json i changed the command to /usr/local/bin/eslint ./data/* --format html --output-file ./finalresult.html --fix and now it works perfectly fine with npm run lint. Thanks a lot — Seena V P

Check the version of the eslint in your local and global node_modules.

When we run from command line, the global eslint executes while npm uses the one in local node_modules.
