Tslint: Check number of empty lines between methods in classes

[Franziskus1988]

Feature request

• __TSLint version__: 5.8.0

Proposal

In our company we have style guides regarding the number of empty lines between methods in classes. Would it be possible to add a rule to check this style?

[ajafff]

Could be implemented as part of #3139

This has some conceptual overlap with no-consecutive-blank-lines. If we're creating a newline rule then we should fold that functionality into the new rule as well.

Anyone working on this one ?
Would be really nice to have.

Related: #975, #3777.

If there's a need for an expanded, configurable newline rule, it probably makes sense to include options for all these issues.

Per #4534, closing this formatting rule request. If you _really_ need the rule, custom rules are always an option and can be maintained outside this repo!

💀 _It's time!_ 💀

TSLint is being deprecated and no longer accepting pull requests for new rules. See #4534. 😱

If you'd like to see this rule implemented, you have two choices:

• Recommended: Use typescript-eslint to lint your TypeScript code with ESLint ✅
• Legacy: Write it as a custom TSLint rule 🤷‍♂️
