Forbid the use of the events module

The use of EventEmitter with the events module provided by Node.js promotes implicit side-effects by emitting and listening to events. Instead of events, you should prefer activating the wanted effects by calling the functions you wish to use explicitly.

The rule will simply warn whenever the events module is imported.

Fail

import EventEmitter from 'events';

const EventEmitter = require('events')
