This rule disallows empty onSuccess exports in Gadget action files. An empty onSuccess function serves no purpose and should be removed to keep the code clean.

​
Rule Details

This rule checks for onSuccess exports that have an empty function body (no statements) and reports them as unnecessary. Severity: Warning Auto-fixable: Yes

​
Examples

​
Incorrect

// Empty arrow function
export const onSuccess: ActionOnSuccess = async () => {};

// Block with only a comment
export const onSuccess: ActionOnSuccess = async () => {
  // nothing here
};

// Empty function expression
export const onSuccess = async function() {};

​
Correct

// onSuccess with actual work
export const onSuccess: ActionOnSuccess = async ({ record }) => {
  await doSomething(record);
};

// No onSuccess export
export const run: ActionRun = async ({ params }) => {
  // do work
};

​
Auto-fixes

The rule automatically removes the entire empty onSuccess export: 
// Before
export const run: ActionRun = async () => {};
export const onSuccess: ActionOnSuccess = async () => {};

// After auto-fix
export const run: ActionRun = async () => {};
Gadget does not require an onSuccess export. If you have no post-processing work to do, simply omit the export entirely.

​
When to Use

This rule is included in the recommended config. It helps keep action files clean by removing unnecessary boilerplate.
