When using nrlint, it doesn't take into account module import (as reported here: [Similar to · Issue #44 · node-red/nrlint](https://github.com/node-red/nrlint/issues/44)

It is a simple click in the editor to ignore, adding this to description of node or flow:  
`// nrlint function-eslint:off`

However, that disables all rules. How can we disable specific rules? Like the import rule. Further more, it would be a great option to be able to ignore linting for specific lines with comments. Is that possible?

Maybe with:

```js
// nrlint eslint-disable-line

```

Add the rule to disable/ignore after `// nrlint`

The suggestion from @GogoVega is close - don't add the `nrlint` bit at the start, otherwise `eslint` (the JavaScript linter we use) won't 'see' it.

To disable linting on an individual line:

```auto
// eslint-disable-line

```

To disable linting of all the code in the node:

```auto
// eslint-disable

```

Not sure but the rule should be `no-undef`.
