CLI is not compatible with tslint.json's rules

tslint.json

The rules are not sorted alphabetically, only the first level keys. 😢

Thanks for the issue @nelson6e65, PRs welcome!

[nelson6e65]

I'll try. Any advise?

[keithamus]

The sortSubKey function within this codebase is used to sort the items of a key within the JSON, so adding sortSubKey('rules') would work I believe.

We should focus on sorting package.json.

Yes perhaps we can extract a lot of the core functionality here and make a new sort-tsconfig package.

That would be great!

But... have different tools.... Hmm... Maybe split it in internal modules and detect the "format" automatically from filename or and explicit --type.

Well, tslint becomes deprecated, but still would be nice to sort another .json config files with the same base cli.
