> require the component to be directly exported

## :book: Rule Details

This rule aims to require that the component object be directly exported.

<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/require-direct-export': ['error']}">

```vue
<script>
/* ✓ GOOD */
export default {
  name: 'ComponentA',
  data() {
    return {
      state: 1
    }
  }
}
</script>
```

</eslint-code-block>

<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/require-direct-export': ['error']}">

```vue
<script>
const ComponentA = {
  name: 'ComponentA',
  data() {
    return {
      state: 1
    }
  }
}

/* ✗ BAD */
export default ComponentA
</script>
```

</eslint-code-block>

## :wrench: Options

```json
{
  "vue/require-direct-export": ["error", {
    "disallowFunctionalComponentFunction": false
  }]
}
```

- `"disallowFunctionalComponentFunction"` ... If `true`, disallow functional component functions, available in Vue 3.x. default `false`

### `"disallowFunctionalComponentFunction": false`

<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/require-direct-export': ['error', {disallowFunctionalComponentFunction: false}]}">

```vue
<script>
/* ✓ GOOD */
export default (props) => h('div', props.msg)
</script>
```

</eslint-code-block>

### `"disallowFunctionalComponentFunction": true`

<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/require-direct-export': ['error', {disallowFunctionalComponentFunction: true}]}">

```vue
<script>
/* ✗ BAD */
export default (props) => h('div', props.msg)
</script>
```

</eslint-code-block>
