Description

introduces a new eslint rule to enforce consistent type imports using the import type syntax.

running eslint with the --fix flag will enforce this rule and modify your file according to the consistent type imports eslint rule.

Testing

as an example:

import { S3Client, PutObjectCommand, PutObjectCommandInput } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";

upon running eslint on this file, it would throw:

1:1  error  Import "PutObjectCommandInput" is only used as types  

this should be written as so (can be done by running eslint with the --fix flag):

import type { PutObjectCommandInput } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
import { PutObjectCommand, S3Client } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
