If you do not provide an accessibility modifier for a method, it is private by default.

off accessibility modifiers makes for less code to read and write. Members are However, adding in explicit accessibility modifiers can be helpful in codebases with many classes for enforcing proper privacy of members. Some developers also find it preferable for code readability to keep member publicity explicit. This rule aims to make code more readable and explicit about who can use which properties. If you are working on a codebase within which you lint non-TypeScript code (i.e. accessibilityThis rule in its default state requires no configuration and will enforce that every class member has an accessibility modifier. If you would like to allow for some implicit public members then you have the following options: { accessibility: 'explicit', overrides: { accessors: 'explicit', constructors: 'no-public', methods: 'explicit', properties: 'off', parameterProperties: 'explicit' } } Note the above is an example of a possible configuration you could use - it is not the default configuration. The following patterns are considered incorrect code if no options are provided: class Animal { constructor(name) { // No accessibility modifier this.animalName = name; } animalName: string; // No accessibility modifier get name(): string { // No accessibility modifier return this.animalName; } set name(value: string) { // No accessibility modifier this.animalName = value; } walk() { // method } } The following patterns are considered correct with the default options class Animal { public constructor(public breed, name) { // Parameter property and constructor this.animalName = name; } private animalName: string; // Property get name(): string { // get accessor return this.animalName; } set name(value: string) { // set accessor this.animalName = value; } public walk() { // method } } The following patterns are considered incorrect with the accessibility set to no-public class Animal { public constructor(public breed, name) { // Parameter property and constructor this.animalName = name; } public animalName: string; // Property public get name(): string { // get accessor return this.animalName; } public set name(value: string) { // set accessor this.animalName = value; } public walk() { // method } } The following patterns are considered correct with the accessibility set to no-public class Animal { constructor(protected breed, name) { // Parameter property and constructor this.name = name; } private animalName: string; // Property get name(): string { // get accessor return this.animalName; } private set name(value: string) { // set accessor this.animalName = value; } protected walk() { // method } } OverridesThere are three ways in which an override can be used.
Disallow the use of public on a given membere.g. The following patterns are considered incorrect with the example override class Animal { public constructor(protected animalName) {} public get name() { return this.animalName; } } The following patterns are considered correct with the example override class Animal { constructor(protected animalName) {} public get name() { return this.animalName; } } Require explicit accessibility for a given membere.g. The following patterns are considered incorrect with the example override class Animal { constructor(protected animalName) {} get name() { return this.animalName; } protected set name(value: string) { this.animalName = value; } legs: number; private hasFleas: boolean; } The following patterns are considered correct with the example override class Animal { constructor(protected animalName) {} get name() { return this.animalName; } protected set name(value: string) { this.animalName = value; } public legs: number; private hasFleas: boolean; } e.g. The following code is considered incorrect with the example override class Animal { constructor(readonly animalName: string) {} } The following code patterns are considered correct with the example override class Animal { constructor(public readonly animalName: string) {} } class Animal { constructor(public animalName: string) {} } class Animal { constructor(animalName: string) {} } e.g. The following code is considered incorrect with the example override class Animal { constructor(public readonly animalName: string) {} } The following code is considered correct with the example override class Animal { constructor(public animalName: string) {} } Disable any checks on given member typee.g. As no checks on the overridden member type are performed all permutations of visibility are permitted for that member type The follow pattern is considered incorrect for the given configuration class Animal { constructor(protected animalName) {} public get name() { return this.animalName; } get legs() { return this.legCount; } } The following patterns are considered correct with the example override class Animal { public constructor(protected animalName) {} public get name() { return this.animalName; } get legs() { return this.legCount; } } Except specific methodsIf you want to ignore some specific methods, you can do it by
specifying method names. Note that this option does not care for the context, and will ignore every method with these names, which could lead to it missing some cases. You should use this sparingly. e.g. class Animal { get specificMethod() { console.log('No error because you specified this method on option'); } get whateverMethod() { console.log('No error because you specified this method on option'); } public get otherMethod() { console.log('This method comply with this rule'); } } When Not To Use ItIf you think defaulting to public is a good default, then you should consider using the Further Reading
What accessibility modifier allows access to a method from other classes?This basically means you are using the default access modifier. The default access modifier allows a variable, method, or class to be accessible by other classes within the same package.
Under what circumstances will a method receive the actual memory address of a passed array?Under what circumstances will a method receive the actual memory address of a passed array, and have access to the actual values in the array elements? Only when it is passed by reference.
When declaring a method how any params keywords are permitted?By using the params keyword, you can specify a method parameter that takes a variable number of arguments. The parameter type must be a single-dimensional array. No additional parameters are permitted after the params keyword in a method declaration, and only one params keyword is permitted in a method declaration.
When you declare an array What are the numeric fields initialized to?The default values of numeric array elements are set to zero, and reference elements are set to null . A jagged array is an array of arrays, and therefore its elements are reference types and are initialized to null . Arrays are zero indexed: an array with n elements is indexed from 0 to n-1 .
