Eslint-plugin-react: TypeError: Cannot read property 'callee' of null

[jbizkit]

Version 7.20.5 seems to crash when tsx file has a function with the name createElement

yarn eslint
yarn run v1.22.4
$ node --max_old_space_size=8000 node_modules/eslint/bin/eslint.js --quiet -f compact --ext .ts,.tsx -o eslint-errors.txt src/

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 7.5.0

Component

import * as React from 'react';

interface Props {
    text: string;
}

export const Test: React.FC<Props> = (props: Props) => {
    const createElement = (text: string) => {
        return (
            <div>
                {text}
            </div>
        );
    };

    return <>{createElement(props.text)}</>;
};

What happens with v7.20.5?

[ljharb]

So, specifically, this is likely because React.createElement is what jsx syntax uses.

[ljharb]

Also, do you have any idea what linting rule is being applied?

[ljharb]

Got a fix anyways.

[jbizkit]

Can you link the fix PR to this issue @ljharb.

[ljharb]

@jbizkit there was no fix PR; it was just the commit, which is linked in the closing message.

[riceboyler]

@ljharb Can we get a new patch release cut that has this fix in it? We've had to revert to a previous version due to this bug.

[ljharb]

Yes, I'll cut one soon.
