latest version of eslint-config-airbnb is not compatible with eslint 7.3.0

[nescalante]

when using latest version of eslint with latest version of eslint-config-airbnb is throwing the following error:

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 7.3.0

Error: .eslintrc.yml » eslint-config-airbnb » /blablabla/node_modules/eslint-config-airbnb-base/index.js » /blablabla/node_modules/eslint-config-airbnb-base/rules/imports.js:
	Configuration for rule "import/no-cycle" is invalid:
	Value null should be integer.

It seems that when parsing the rule configuration, eslint now receives:

[ 'error', { maxDepth: null, ignoreExternal: false } ]

Removing maxDepth from this line fixes the issue.

yes! here's a build failing as you describe

I wonder if it has to do with the fact that when you JSON stringify Inifinity it becomes null?

Looks like this is due to an eslint bug: eslint/eslint#13427

I'd suggest downgrading to eslint v7.2 for now.

v7.2 works as expected. thanks!

Fixed by ESLint 7.3.1 eslint/eslint#13435

No, they reverted the original config cloning change, not the band-aid hack in v7.3.1. v7.4.0 restores the pre-v7.3.0 behavior, so things should work just fine here.
