copyWithSortedKeys¶

Overview¶

Preload file that sorts the keys in an object intended for JSON, using the strategy defined in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5467129/sort-javascript-object-by-key

This is used in the simulation side to make sure the elements-baseline file is sorted, and used in the phet-io wrapper side to make sure the elements-overrides file is sorted.

Namespacing and naming are discussed in https://github.com/phetsims/phet-io/issues/1446#issuecomment-476842068 and below NOTE: Please be mindful of the copy in formatPhetioAPI, see https://github.com/phetsims/phet-io/issues/1733
