Sorting by data type. Grouping Primitive data type together and Complex data type together.

[maxime4000]

I'm looking at the documentation and I'm not sure how to interpret the docs about the settings configuration. I'm looking to sort JSON by Type, but I want it with those criteria :

• Primitive data type first
  • Sorting without grouping primitive type. (string, number and others will be mixed together in the sorting)
• Complex data type second

I guess I have 4 criteria of grouping. Something like this order :

• primitive (string, number, boolean, null, undefined)
• array of primitive ex: ["str1", "str2", 3, null, true, false]->No Object in this array
• object
• array of object or mixed data ex: [{...}, "2", {...}, 4, null, {...}, true, false]

The goal is to make :

• Simple data first
• Array of simple data second
• Complex data third
• Array of complex data fourth/last

To my understanding, the most similar feature is sorting by type, but it separate different primitive type which I prefer if it wouldn't happen.

I don't think the settings allow this type of customization, would appreciate some help if it can allow it. Otherwise, take this as a feature request :)

Here a JSON made to test the use case: I can provide with an expected sorting if ask. Otherwise I won't.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not able to have a look at this at the moment. Let me know if you are able to have a look at the code and I can give you some suggestions.
