Reorder Lines By Length Plugin

IntelliJ plugin to reorder selected lines by their length!
Reduce cognitive load and make your code look pretty!

Example

Before

this.queryBuilder = queryBuilder;
this.dao = dao;
this.validator = validator;
this.mapper = mapper;

After

this.dao = dao;
this.mapper = mapper;
this.validator = validator;
this.queryBuilder = queryBuilder;

How To Use

• Select the lines of text you want to reorder
• Right click and choose Reorder Lines By Length

What does it do?

• Grabs the selected text
• Splits them into an array by the new-line character
• Sorts the array by ascending order of string length
• Replaces selected text with the sorted text
• Indents the selected text as well, so that everything looks neat!

Disclaimer

• Please note that this will work only for groups of single lines i.e., the selected text should not contain any code that spans more than a single line
  
  For example, the below snippet of code cannot be formatted.

// This will break since the code spans more than one line
Caret primaryCaret = editor.getCaretModel() 
        .getPrimaryCaret();

• Also, please make sure to select entire lines i.e., starting from the first character till the last!
