Eslint-plugin-react: 'React' is defined but never used no-unused-vars

[VanessaChu]

When i run eslint on my code, I get the error:
'React' is defined but never used no-unused-vars
when I remove import 'React' from 'react' I get the error
'React' must be in scope when using JSX

I tried enabling the rules below but still receive the error.
"react/jsx-uses-react": 1,
"react/jsx-uses-vars": 1,
"react/react-in-jsx-scope": 1

Can someone help me check if my configurations are correct, if I'm not overriding anything?

I'd include the explicit import, and remove it as a global from your "globals" configuration.

[VanessaChu]

I have included the explicit import and removing it as global did not change anything

[ljharb]

Can you share the contents of the file it's erroring on, and the exact error message on the CLI, complete with line number?

@ljharb I have the same issue.

JSX File:

/** @jsx jsx */     // <- required by @emotion/core
import React from "react";  // error
import { Link } from "gatsby";
import Helmet from "react-helmet";
import { css, jsx } from "@emotion/core";

const Header = () => (
  <div
    css={css`
      background: rebeccapurple;
      margin-bottom: 1.45rem;
    `}>
    <div
      css={css`
        margin: 0 auto;
        max-width: 960px;
        padding: 1.45rem 1.0875rem;
      `}>
      <h1 style={{ margin: 0 }}>
        <Link
          to="/"
          css={css`
            color: white;
            text-decoration: none;
          `}>
          Gatsby
        </Link>
      </h1>
    </div>
  </div>
);

const TemplateWrapper = ({ children }) => (
  <>
    <Helmet
      title="Blog"
      meta={[
        { name: "description", content: "Sample" },
        { name: "keywords", content: "sample, something" }
      ]}
    />
    <Header />
    <div

        margin: 0 auto;
        max-width: 960px;

        padding-top: 0px;
      `}>
      {children}
    </div>
  </>

export default TemplateWrapper;

CLI output:

Seems like /** @jsx jsx */ is causing the error. Error no longer appears after removing it.

I think this can be closed unless @VanessaChu haven't resolved the issue.

[ljharb]

indeed; when that comment is present, you don't need the React import and can/should delete it.

[justingrant]

@ljharb @gagan0723 -

I believe that this statement is incorrect, at least when using emotion 10. See https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react/issues/2156#issuecomment-554844831 and https://github.com/emotion-js/emotion/issues/1549
