Enforce alphabetical sorting of things

[EvgenyOrekhov]

Or not?

I've never been a fan of alphabetical sorting, but I'm willing to give it a go.

Note: CSS has a better alternative (implemented in stylelint-config-recess-order and included in @twinscom/stylelint-config).

• [ ] If yes, should sorting be case-insensitive? I'm leaning towards case-insensitive, it should make it easier to scan code.
  • [ ] Set "ignoreCase": true for react/sort-prop-types
  • [ ] Set "ignoreCase": true for react/jsx-sort-default-props
  • [ ] Set "ignoreCase": true for react/jsx-sort-props
• [ ] eslint-plugin-sort-keys-fix
• [ ] eslint-plugin-sort-destructure-keys
• [ ] eslint-plugin-sort?
• [ ] imports (alphabetize option)
• [ ] exports
• [ ] class members ("sort": "alphabetical" option)
• [ ] ~variables?~ sort-vars won't have any effect because it doesn't sort separate statements

• I like to sort my imports by type (https://github.com/import-js/eslint-plugin-import/blob/HEAD/docs/rules/order.md). Unless you are talking about https://eslint.org/docs/rules/sort-imports; that seems fine to me!

• https://eslint.org/docs/rules/sort-vars has problems when variables depend on another defined in the same block:

 const b = 5, a = b + 10;

sort-vars wants me to reverse the order of a and b, but that'll throw an error due to b not being defined.

@RedGuy12 import/order will remain by type:

https://github.com/EvgenyOrekhov/eslint-config-hardcore/blob/755a05129b0f4801aba74819fb6d83525c86ff13/base.json#L465-L479

but inside each group items will also be sorted alphabetically, see the alphabetize option.

Regarding sort-vars, "one-var": ["error", "never"] will enforce this style which doesn't have the problem you described:

const b = 5;
const a = b + 10;

[EvgenyOrekhov]

Oh, I see that sort-vars doesn't sort separate statements, so it doesn't make sense to enable it.
