        if (false) {
            return next({
                name: 'loginPage'
            })

        return next()

}

• Why do you have if (false) {? Remove that whole block. – CertainPerformance Commented Sep 2, 2020 at 2:17

Add a ment  |

If you want the keep the if (false) for a proper purpose, say debugging, try put the following ment above it to get it to bypass eslint.

/* eslint-disable no-constant-condition */

Make sure you remove this before your code goes to production.

That's a linter warning, telling you that the block:

if (false) {

will never be entered (or will always be entered), so there's no point to it.

Either remove the block entirely:

export default function auth({ next }) {
  return next();
}

If you're planning to add stuff to the block later, ment it out instead of putting in a runtime test:

export default function auth({ next }) {
  /*
  return next({
    name: 'loginPage'
  })
  */
  return next()
}
