[Source code](../../../../lint/src/rules/ts/sort-standalone-imports.ts)

#### `indent`

#### `trailingComma`

### Examples


#### Valid code
    
##### should sort multiple imports on separate lines
        
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [
    AsyncPipe,
    RootComponent,
  ],
})
export class AppComponent {}
```
        
    
##### should not inlines singular imports when maxItems is 0
        
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [
    RootComponent,
  ],
})
export class AppComponent {}
```
        
    
##### should inline singular imports when maxItems is 1
        
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [RootComponent],
})
export class AppComponent {}
```
        
With options:

```json
{
  "maxItems": 1
}
```
        
    



#### Invalid code  & automatic fixes
    
##### should sort multiple imports alphabetically
        
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [
    RootComponent,
    AsyncPipe,
  ],
})
export class AppComponent {}

        

```
Will produce the following error(s):
```
Standalone imports should be sorted alphabetically
```
        
Result of `yarn lint --fix`:
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [
    AsyncPipe,
    RootComponent,
  ],
})
export class AppComponent {}
```
        
    
##### should not put singular imports on one line when maxItems is 0
        
```typescript
@Component({
  selector: 'ds-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  standalone: true,
  imports: [RootComponent],
})
export class AppComponent {}

        

```
