@arnaud-barre/prettier-plugin-sort-imports

A small low-overhead TS-only Prettier plugin to sort imports. Inspired by IanVS/prettier-plugin-import-sort.

This package is using a monkey-patch of the estree pinter preprocess to avoid a double code -> AST -> code pass. This is obviously not stable, but allows to get everything I need for 200 lines of code and without any dependency.

The plugin is published as an ESM module, so it requires Prettier 3.

This plugin sorts imports into 4 groups (bun:, node:, <packages>, .<relative>), with a natural sorting inside each group. Comments follow the imports they are attached too. There is no special handling for TS paths.

Features

• Don't reorder imports across side effect imports
• Enforce node: prefix
• Merge imports statement from the same module
• Use import type for type only imports
