pluginRuleOrdering

Reports Flint plugin rules arrays that are not sorted alphabetically.

✅ This rule is included in the flint stylisticStrict presets.

Flint plugin rules arrays are generally sorted alphabetically by rule identifier. Keeping them in order makes it easier to add new rules without deciding where they belong first. Alphabetically sorted lists are also easier to search through.

Examples

❌ Incorrect

import { createPlugin } from "@flint.fyi/core";
import firstRule from "./rules/firstRule.ts";
import secondRule from "./rules/secondRule.ts";

export const plugin = createPlugin({
  name: "Example",
  rules: [secondRule, firstRule],
});

✅ Correct

import { createPlugin } from "@flint.fyi/core";
import firstRule from "./rules/firstRule.ts";
import secondRule from "./rules/secondRule.ts";

export const plugin = createPlugin({
  name: "Example",
  rules: [firstRule, secondRule],
});

Options

This rule is not configurable.

When Not To Use It

If a flint plugin’s rules array is intentionally grouped or ordered for some other tooling, you may prefer to disable this rule.
