eslint-plugin-sort-properties

This plugin provides rules that enforce the sorting of properties in object expressions, object destructuring for JavaScript, and type literals, interface members for TypeScript.
Inspired by eslint-plugin-sort-keys-fix and eslint-plugin-sort-destructure-keys, it is designed to be auto-fixable. But with optimization, it is up to 11x faster to fix, 6x to parse, 60x to apply rule than these plugins._benchmark
And this plugin can be configured to include leading/trailing comments as part of the property, so there's less chance of breaking the placement of comments.
Additionally, inspired by the eslint-plugin-react/jsx-sort-props rule, it supports giving higher priority to function properties when sorting.

Name	Description	⚠️	🔧	💡
sort-interface	Enforce interface members to be sorted.	🌐	🔧	💡
sort-object-destructing	Enforce properties in object destructuring to be sorted.	🌐	🔧	💡
sort-object-expression	Enforce properties in object expressions to be sorted.	🌐	🔧	💡
sort-type-literal	Enforce properties in type literals to be sorted.	🌐	🔧	💡

Installation

You'll first need to install ESLint:

npm install eslint --save-dev

Next, install eslint-plugin-sort-properties:

npm install eslint-plugin-sort-properties --save-dev

Available configurations

	Name	Description
🌐	`all`	Apply all rules in the `sort-properties` plugin. Use `flat/all` in eslint>=9
	`js`	Apply JavaScript rules in the `sort-properties` plugin. Use `flat/js` in eslint>=9
	`ts`	Apply TypeScript rules in the `sort-properties` plugin. Use `flat/ts` in eslint>=9

Configuration (legacy: `.eslintrc*`)

⚠️ Important note
To use rules for typescript(sort-interface, sort-type-literal), you must specify the parser as @typescript-eslint/parser.

module.exports = {
  // ...
  overrides: [
    {
      files: ["**/*.{ts,tsx}"],
      parser: "@typescript-eslint/parser",
    },
  ],
};

Use all to enable all rules. Here's an example configuration in your .eslintrc:

module.exports = {
  extends: ["plugin:sort-properties/all"],
};

or you can enable specific rules:

module.exports = {
  plugins: ["sort-properties"],
  rules: {
    "sort-properties/sort-interface": "warn",
    "sort-properties/sort-object-destructing": "warn",
    "sort-properties/sort-object-expression": [
      "warn",
      // See the options section below for more information
      {
        allowLineSeparatedGroups: false,
        caseSensitive: true,
        functionOrder: "higher",
        includeComments: "leading",
        minKeys: 2,
        natural: true,
        order: "asc",
      },
    ],
    "sort-properties/sort-type-literal": "warn",
  },
};

Configuration (new: `eslint.config.js`)

⚠️ Important note
To use rules for typescript(sort-interface, sort-type-literal), you must specify the parser as @typescript-eslint/parser.

const tseslint = require("typescript-eslint");

// Use utility function for typescript-eslint
module.exports = tseslint.config(
  { ... }
);

// Or manually specify the parser
module.exports = [
  {
    files: ["**/*.{ts,tsx}"],
    languageOptions: {
      parser: tseslint.parser,
    },
  },
];

Use flat/all to enable all rules. Here's an example configuration in your eslint.config.js:

const sortPropertiesPlugin = require("eslint-plugin-sort-properties");

module.exports = [
  // ...
  sortPropertiesPlugin.configs["flat/all"],
];

or you can enable specific rules:

module.exports = [
  // ...
  {
    plugins: {
      "sort-properties": require("eslint-plugin-sort-properties"),
    },
    rules: {
      "sort-properties/sort-interface": "warn",
      "sort-properties/sort-object-destructing": "warn",
      "sort-properties/sort-object-expression": [
        "warn",
        // See the options section below for more information
        {
          allowLineSeparatedGroups: false,
          caseSensitive: true,
          functionOrder: "higher",
          includeComments: "leading",
          minKeys: 2,
          natural: true,
          order: "asc",
        },
      ],
      "sort-properties/sort-type-literal": "warn",
    },
  },
];

Options

All four rules shares most of the options below:

Name	Description	Type	Choices	Default
`allowLineSeparatedGroups`	If true, properties are separated independently by line breaks. Works same as eslint sort-keys rule.	Boolean		`true`
`caseSensitive`	Whether the comparison is case sensitive.	Boolean		`true`
`functionOrder`	The priority of properties which values are either method or arrow function. For example, if order is 'asc' and functionOrder is 'higher', function properties will be placed at the end. this option is not available for `sort-object-destructing` rule.		`higher`, `lower`, `equal`	`higher`
`includeComments`	Position of comments to consider as part of the property.		`leading`, `trailing`	`leading`
`minKeys`	Minimum number of keys to check order.	Integer		`2`
`natural`	Whether the comparison is using a natural order. See natural-compare	Boolean		`true`
`order`	The order of properties.	String	`asc`, `desc`	`asc`
