# prefer-container-registration-keys - ESLint plugin rules

This rule prefers `ContainerRegistrationKeys.*` members over magic strings in `resolve(...)` calls.

## Severity

`warn`. This rule is enabled in the [recommended](https://docs.medusajs.com/resources/lint#recommended) preset.

## What it Targets

This rule targets all files in your project. It reports calls to `resolve(...)` that pass a known registration-key string, such as `"query"` or `"logger"`, instead of the matching `ContainerRegistrationKeys` member.

The following code is reported by the rule:

```ts title="src/api/example.ts"
// non-compliant
const query = req.scope.resolve("query")
```

Instead, use the `ContainerRegistrationKeys` enum:

```ts title="src/api/example.ts"
// compliant
import { ContainerRegistrationKeys } from "@medusajs/framework/utils"

const query = req.scope.resolve(
  ContainerRegistrationKeys.QUERY
)
```

## Why it's Important

The `ContainerRegistrationKeys` enum gives you a single, type-safe source for registration keys. Using it avoids typos in magic strings and makes resolved dependencies easier to find and refactor.

Learn more in the [Medusa Container documentation](https://docs.medusajs.com/learn/fundamentals/medusa-container).

## Fixable

This rule is auto-fixable. Run the linter with the `--fix` option to apply the fix automatically.

## Turn it Off

To turn off this rule, set it to `off` in your ESLint configuration:

```ts title="eslint.config.ts"
import { defineConfig } from "eslint/config"
import medusa from "@medusajs/eslint-plugin"

export default defineConfig([
  ...medusa.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      "@medusajs/prefer-container-registration-keys": "off",
    },
  },
])
```

Or disable it for a single line using an inline comment:

```ts
// eslint-disable-next-line @medusajs/prefer-container-registration-keys
const query = req.scope.resolve("query")
```
