 - `enabled`: for enabling the rule. 0=off, 1=warn, 2=error. Defaults to 0.
 - `ignore`: optional array of property and attribute names to ignore during validation.
+- `requireDataLowercase`: optional (default: `false`), require data-\* attributes to contain only lowercase characters. React will issue a warning when data-\* attributes contain uppercase characters. In order to catch such attributes, set the `requireDataLowercase` option to `true`.
 
 If you are using a library that passes something as a prop to JSX elements, it is recommended to add those props to the ignored properties.
