    Rule Details

    Requires rest parameters instead of arguments.

    There are rest parameters in ES2015. We can use that feature for variadic functions instead of the arguments variable. arguments does not have methods of Array.prototype, so it's a bit inconvenient.

    Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

    function foo() {
  console.log(arguments);
}

function foo(action) {
  var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1);
  action.apply(null, args);
}

function foo(action) {
  var args = [].slice.call(arguments, 1);
  action.apply(null, args);
}

    Examples of correct code for this rule:

    function foo(...args) {
  console.log(args);
}

function foo(action, ...args) {
  action.apply(null, args);
}

// This is not a use of `arguments` itself
function foo() {
  arguments.length;
  arguments.callee;
}
