Is there a way to use ESLint to force destructuring objects to be typed inline, rather than using a separate type definition?

Question

I want to force us to always type destructuring objects inline instead of creating a separate type definition. For example, for React components, I want to force all of our code to use this pattern:

const SomeComponent = ({ foo, bar }: { foo: string, bar: boolean }) => {
  return...
}

instead of:

type Props = {
    foo: string,
    bar: boolean,
};

const SomeComponent = ({ foo, bar }: Props} => {
  return...
}

I checked the ESLint rules and didn't find anything similar. Does anyone have any suggestions?

As far as I know - there are currently no existing lint rules that enforce this mode.

You can enforce lint rules using no-restricted-syntax (Example), but as the comments in your post suggest - this Not a good idea.

It is not possible to create a selector that only matches "reactive function components" because reactive function components are just functions. So (as my example shows) this simple approach will create a lot of noise and false positives in your codebase - which is bad because it creates noise for your team.

You can create custom rules , but you can never really make this number zero.

BTW - this coding style is not good as it goes against industry conventions. It is very common and popular to define a separate type so that it can be imported into a consumer and combined with other types - for example when creating higher-order or wrapper components.
