prettier-plugin-sort-json

A plugin for Prettier that sorts JSON files by property name.

Requirements

This module requires an LTS Node version (v10.0.0+), and prettier v2.1.0+.

Install

Using npm:

``console
npm install --save-dev prettier-plugin-sort-json-custom
`

Using yarn:

`console
yarn add --dev prettier-plugin-sort-json-custom
`

Description

This plugin adds a JSON preprocessor that will sort JSON files containing a JSON object alphanumerically by key. JSON files containing Arrays or other non-Object values are skipped.

Object entries are sorted by key using Array.sort, according to each character's Unicode code point value.

Examples

Before:

`json
{
"z": null,
"a": null,
"b": null,
"0": null,
"exampleNestedObject": {
"z": null,
"a": null
}
}
`

After:

`json
{
"0": null,
"a": null,
"b": null,
"exampleNestedObject": {
"z": null,
"a": null
},
"z": null
}
`

Configuration

$3

Sort JSON objects recursively, including all nested objects.

Remarks:

This code is official from https://github.com/Gudahtt/prettier-plugin-sort-json with a pull request from https://github.com/MasterEric/prettier-plugin-sort-json which was never approved. So I created this custom project which is published to npm to people can actually use it.
