sort-maps
Enforce sorted elements within JavaScript Map object.
Sorting elements within JavaScript Map objects provides a clear and predictable structure to the codebase. This rule detects instances where Map elements are not sorted and raises linting errors, encouraging developers to arrange elements in the desired order.
By maintaining a consistent structure across Map objects, this rule improves readability and makes it easier to locate and understand key-value pairs.

Options
This rule accepts an options object with the following properties:
type
default:'alphabetical'
Specifies the sorting method.
'alphabetical'
— Sort items alphabetically (e.g., “a” < “b” < “c”).'natural'
— Sort items in a natural order (e.g., “item2” < “item10”).'line-length'
— Sort items by the length of the code line (shorter lines first).
order
default:'asc'
Determines whether the sorted items should be in ascending or descending order.
'asc'
— Sort items in ascending order (A to Z, 1 to 9).'desc'
— Sort items in descending order (Z to A, 9 to 1).
ignoreCase
default:true
Controls whether sorting should be case-sensitive or not.
true
— Ignore case when sorting alphabetically or naturally (e.g., “A” and “a” are the same).false
— Consider case when sorting (e.g., “A” comes before “a”).
partitionByComment
default:false
Allows you to use comments to separate the members of maps into logical groups. This can help in organizing and maintaining large enums by creating partitions within the enum based on comments.
true
— All comments will be treated as delimiters, creating partitions.false
— Comments will not be used as delimiters.string
— A glob pattern to specify which comments should act as delimiters.string[]
— A list of glob patterns to specify which comments should act as delimiters.
partitionByNewLine
default:false
When true
, the rule will not sort the members of a map if there is an empty line between them. This can be useful for keeping logically separated groups of members in their defined order.
new Map([
// Group 1
['Drone', 0],
['Keyboard', 1],
['Mouse', 3],
['Smartphone', 4],
// Group 2
['Laptop', 5],
['Monitor', 6],
['Smartwatch', 7],
['Tablet', 8],
// Group 3
['Headphones', 9],
['Router', 10],
])
matcher
default:'minimatch'
Determines the matcher used for patterns in the partitionByComment
option.
'minimatch'
— Use the minimatch library for pattern matching.'regex'
— Use regular expressions for pattern matching.
