An elegant prettier plugin for sorting your imports. It automatically checks you typescript tsconfig configuration and sorts aliases by default.

Table of Contents

Usage

prettier-plugin-sorted is a prettier plugin for automatically sorting all you JavaScript and TypeScript imports. It uses import-sort and allows for a zero configuration setup which should be sufficient for most setups.

Sort the modules in the following order.

  • Imports with no members are left unsorted at the top of the file. These tend to have side effects and their order is important. import 'tolu';
  • Node module imports. import { join } from 'path';
  • Absolute module imports (but not aliased). import main from 'main';
  • Aliased imports taken from the tsconfig.json and extraAliases setting, but excluding ignoredAliases.
  • Relative module imports.
  • Bottom imports, which are set in the settings object as bottomAliases. These group together absolute paths with relative, placing the absolute paths above the relative.

An example is shown below.

// Imports with no members are left unsorted since they may have side effects.
import 'dotenv';
import './my-side-effect';
import 'firebase/auth';

// Built in node module imports come next
import { join } from 'path';

// Absolute imports
import Awesome from 'awesome-package';
import { B, C } from 'bcde';

// Aliased imports
import MyAlias from '@my-alias';
import { Simple } from 'simple';

// Relative imports
import { DeepRelative } from '../../deep/relative';
import Relative from './relative';

// Bottom imports
import Bottom from '@bottom';
import { relativeBottom } from './relative/bottom';

Setup

First, install the plugin and the required parser:

npm install --save-dev prettier-plugin-sorted prettier

Or if you're using Yarn.

yarn add -D prettier-plugin-sorted prettier

Add the plugin to your prettier configuration.

.prettierrc.json

{
  "plugins": ["prettier-plugin-sorted"]
}

Or inside your project's package.json file.

{
  "prettier": {
    "plugins": ["prettier-plugin-sorted"]
  }
}

If you would like to customise the setup you can add the importSort field to you package.json file. A better explanation on what each configuration option does is available here.

"importSort": {
  ".js, jsx, .ts, .tsx": {
    "options": {
      "cacheStrategy": "directory",
      "wildcardAtStart": false,
      "extraAliases": [],
      "ignoredAliases": [],
      "bottomAliases": []
    }
  }
}
