eslint: error Parsing error: The keyword 'const' is reserved

I am getting this error from ESLint:

error  Parsing error: The keyword 'const' is reserved

from this code:

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const _ = require('underscore');

I've tried removing node_modules and reinstalling all npm packages (as suggested here), but to no avail.

ESLint defaults to ES5 syntax-checking.
You'll want to override to the latest well-supported version of JavaScript.

Try adding a .eslintrc.json file to your project. Inside it:

{
    "parserOptions": {
        "ecmaVersion": 2017
    },

    "env": {
        "es6": true
    }
}

Hopefully this helps.

EDIT: I also found this example .eslintrc.json which might help.

you also can add this inline instead of config, just add it to the same file before you add your own disable stuff

/* eslint-env es6 */
/* eslint-disable no-console */

my case was disable a file and eslint-disable were not working for me alone

/* eslint-env es6 */
/* eslint-disable */

I used .eslintrc.js and I have added following code.

module.exports = {
    "parserOptions": {
        "ecmaVersion": 6
    }
};
