# Sort Imports for [D](https://dlang.org/)
<img src="assets/importsort-d.png" alt="logo" width="256" />
`sortimport-d` can sort your dozens of `import`'s in a `.d` file (no matter where)
## Installation
## Prerequisite
- [`dub`](https://dub.pm/)
### Building from HEAD
Get the repository with `git` and compile everything with `dub`
```
$ git clone https://github.com/friedelschoen/importsort-d
$ cd importsort-d
$ dub build
```
If everything went fine, there should be a binary at `bin/importsort-d`.
Copy this into a directory included in `$PATH` (`/usr/bin` for example) to make this command work globally.
### Building with DUB
```
$ dub fetch importsort-d
$ dub run importsort-d -- --help
```
This won't install the command globally, you always have to run `dub run importsort-d <args>`
## Usage
```
$ importsort-d [-h] [-v] [-r] [-i] [-o <out>] [-k] [-a] [-r] <input...>
```
`input` may be omitted or set to `-` to read from STDIN
| option | description |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| `-h, --help` | prints a help message |
| `-v, --verbose` | prints useful debug messages |
| | |
| `-k, --keep` | keeps the line as-is instead of formatting |
| `-a, --attribute` | public and static imports first |
| `-b, --binding` | sorts by binding rather then the original |
| | |
| `-r, --recursive` | recursively search in directories |
| `-i, --inline` | changes the input |
| `-o, --output <path>` | writes to `path` rather then writing to STDOUT |
## TODO's
- [x] recursive searching (`v0.2.0`)
- [ ] watch-mode (struggling with save-timings - can clear files)
- you can add importsort-d into your onSave-hooks (e. g. [Run on Save](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=emeraldwalk.RunOnSave) on VSCode)
- [ ] support multiple imports in one line (demilited by `;`)
- [x] merge imports (`v0.3.0`)
- [ ] stripping unused imports (maybe)
## Changelog
### `v0.1.0`
- the very first version
- not a lot is implemented
### `v0.2.0`
- added `--recursive` (see above)
- option `--keep` becomes disabling formatting
- option `--inline` doen't copy the original but creates a `*.new` and renames it afterwards
- option `--original` becomes `--binding` and sorts by original by default
- refactoring code
