gdlint: missing support for functions on class-definitions-order:

[MikeSchulze]

Hi, I love the tool, but I miss the option to sort by function types.

Please add options to check the sort order, for static, public and private functions

class-definitions-order:
  - static_func
  - public_func
  - private_func

I think I was going to add it at some point, but there is an ambiguity regarding some core functions inherited e.g. from Node etc.

Consider the code:

func _ready():
    pass
func public_foo():
    pass
func _private_foo():
    pass

To me, the above order is ok - first we got essential, inherited functions , then public ones ,then private ones. The problem is, however, that the gdtoolkit is unable to tell if _ready() is implicitly inherited and therefore it cannot differentiate between _ready() and _private_foo(). Thus having

class-definitions-order:
  - static_func
  - public_func
  - private_func

would require the code to be:

func public_foo():
    pass
func _ready():
    pass
func _private_foo():
    pass

How would you resolve that?

Hello, thank you for the answer.
I would not make a distinction between core and user private functions.
But if you can read the original class definition, it would be possible.
Unfortunately, I don't see an example of static functions in your example.

class-definitions-order:
  - static_func
  - public_func
  - private_func

Should be result in

static func bar():
    pass
static func _bar():
    pass
func foo():
    pass
func _ready():
    pass
func _foo():
    pass

Okay, I'll experiment with that.
