CSV serializer should allow to configure the order of the generated columns
Use Case
I have one mqtt input and several outputs. Among the outputs there is an [[output.file]]
to generate a CSV file that is to be consumed by a third party.
Expected behavior
The generated CSV file must comply with some rules, being the most important one the column order. For example, it is mandatory that column 1 is the timestamp, column 2 is the temperature and column 3 the pressure.
Actual behavior
It is not possible to specify the mapping between fields (or tags) can the column order. I think that the CSV serializer is outputting the columns sorted by the alphabetical name of the corresponding field, and it is not possible to specify other criteria.
