Template string can be replaced with regular string literal
25 const githubPAT = process.env.GH_DATASTORE_PAT
26 if (!githubPAT) {
27 throw new Error(
28 `Missing 'GH_DATASTORE_PAT' environment variable.\nIf you need to generate a new one, visit https://github.com/settings/tokens\nThe token must be CLASSIC and not the newer 'fine-grained' variety. When selecting the scopes, the minimum required is 'repo'`29 )
30 }
31 const gh = new Octokit({ auth: githubPAT })
Description
Template literals are useful when you need:
Strings that have unescaped double quotes and single quotes.
Strings that need line breaks in them.
If neither of these three conditions is met, you can replace the template expression with a regular string literal.
Bad Practice
const dialogue = `"Journey before destination", said Dalinar.`
const dialogue2 = `What is a 'Kwisatz Haderach'?`
Recommended
const dialogue = '"Journey before destination", said Dalinar.'
const dialogue2 = "What is a 'Kwisatz Haderach'?"
const dialogue3 = `"${getLine()}", said ${getChararcter()}`
