# no-digest - use `$apply()` instead of `$digest()` **This rule is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. Explanation: There is no reason to forbid the use of `$digest()` in general.** The scope's $digest() method shouldn't be used. You should prefer the $apply method. The `watchers-execution` rule can be configured to enforce the use of `$apply()` or `$digest()`. ## Version This rule was introduced in eslint-plugin-angular 0.1.0 ## Links * [Rule source](../rules/no-digest.js) * [Example source](../examples/no-digest.js)
