Redundant local variable
Reports an unnecessary local variable that does not make a function more comprehensible:
a local variable that is immediately returned
a local variable that is immediately assigned to another variable and is not used anymore
a local variable that always has the same value as another local variable or parameter.

UnnecessaryLocalVariableJS- Via Settings dialog
Path to the inspection settings via IntelliJ Platform IDE Settings dialog, when you need to adjust inspection settings directly from your IDE.
