no-table-create-map

Reports .map(...) called directly on table.create(...) or new Array(...).

Rule details Suggestion

The rule only looks for the direct pattern. These are reported:

• table.create(...).map(...)
• new Array(...).map(...)

It does not report cases where you store the result first, add another method call before map, or shadow table or Array with your own local definitions.

For new Array(...), the rule only matches constructors with one or two arguments.

What to write instead

Allocate the array first, then fill it in a loop or map from an existing array value you already named.

Examples

Incorrect

Direct construct-then-map chain

const mapped = table.create(total, fallback).map((value) => value);
const rewards = new Array<Reward>(size).map(() => makeReward());

Correct

Allocate first, then fill

const rewards = new Array<Reward>(size);
for (const index of $range(1, size)) {
  rewards[index - 1] = makeReward();
}

const baseRewards = table.create(size, fallback);
const mappedRewards = baseRewards.map((value) => value);

Options

This rule has no options.
