stylelint-order

A plugin pack of order related linting rules for stylelint. Every rule support autofixing (stylelint --fix).

Installation

First, install stylelint:

npm install stylelint --save-dev

Then install plugin:

npm install stylelint-order --save-dev

Usage

Add stylelint-order to your stylelint config plugins array, then add rules you need to the rules list. All rules from stylelint-order need to be namespaced with order.

Like so:

// .stylelintrc
{
	"plugins": [
		"stylelint-order"
	],
	"rules": {
		// ...
		"order/order": [
			"custom-properties",
			"declarations"
		],
		"order/properties-alphabetical-order": true
		// ...
	}
}

List of rules

• order: Specify the order of content within declaration blocks.
• properties-order: Specify the order of properties within declaration blocks.
• properties-alphabetical-order: Specify the alphabetical order of properties within declaration blocks.

Autofixing

Every rule support autofixing (stylelint --fix). postcss-sorting is using internally for order autofixing.

Automatic sortings has some limitation, which are described for every rule if any. Please, take a look at how comments are handled by postcss-sorting.

CSS-in-JS styles with template interpolation could be ignored by autofixing to avoid styles corruption.

Autofixing is enabled by default if it's enabled in stylelint configuration. Autofixing can be disabled on per rule basis using disableFix: true secondary option. E. g.:

{
	"rules": {
		"order/order": [
			[
				"custom-properties",
				"declarations"
			],
			{
				"disableFix": true
			}
		]
	}
}

Less isn't supported. It might work, but haven't tested.

Thanks

properties-order and properties-alphabetical-order code and readme are based on declaration-block-properties-order rule which was a stylelint's core rule prior stylelint 8.0.0.
