This experimental tool re-organizes python files in alphabetical order. This can be useful for large files full of mostly pure utility functions.
Internally, this uses libcst for transformations, and checks it's work using pyflakes. The pyflakes checking can be disabled, and we're working on better detection of error cases.
python3 sortpy.py [--ignore-syntax-errors] <file globs...>
#.. or after install..#
sortpy [--ignore-syntax-errors] <file globs...>sudo make installThis edits files in-place. Please don't use it on code that's not in source control, or it's entirely possible it might be lost forever if this messes up.
- Some files like entrypoints which rely on functions coming before certain if statements / calls will not function properly if ran through this tool.
