How to order imports with tslint’s import-ordering rule

I agree that it’s confusing. The problem is that the source string comparisons include the ../.. portions of the module names, so to appease the rule, you would need to sort them like this:

import FetchStatus   from '../../../../../state/generic/models/FetchStatus';
import Geofilter     from '../../../../../state/geofilter/models/Geofilter';
import FlexRow       from '../../../../generic/components/FlexRow';
import Input         from '../../../../generic/components/Input';
import CopyLensModal from './CopyLensModal';

The rule has two parts and can be configured to enforce orderings of the import names and sources separately. To enforce only the ordering of names only, you could use a configuration like this:

"ordered-imports": [true, {
  "import-sources-order": "any",
  "named-imports-order": "case-insensitive"
}]

That would raise an error for imports like this:

import { A, C, B } from 'some-module';

but wouldn’t enforce ordering for the module paths, etc.
