ESLint version

v9.28.0

What problem do you want to solve?

In the custom rule context.report, the messageId property is mandatory, but the meta.message property is not.

Here, specifying the messageId property without specifying meta.message (as in the following example) will result in the following error.

import { Rule } from 'eslint';

export const noClass: Rule.RuleModule = {
  meta: {
    type: 'suggestion',
  },
  create(context) {
    return {
      ClassDeclaration(node) {
        context.report({
          node,
          messageId: 'sampleId',
        });
      },
    };
  },
};

Error: Caught an error while linting
Caused by: TypeError: context.report() called with a messageId, but no messages were present in the rule metadata.

What do you think is the correct solution?

Make the meta.message property a required property
