Question: Will the order of the imports in the metafile continue to match the order they appear in source code?

Hey there,

I'm just wondering if we can expect the order of the imports in the metafile to continue to match the order they appear in source code?

import { Component } from "react"
import uid from "../modules/uid"
import Youtube from "../modules/youtube"

Currently maps to:

{ 
  "inputs": {
    "view/index.jsx": {
      "imports": [
        "node_modules/react/index.js",
        "modules/uid/index.ts",
        "modules/youtube/index.ts"
      ]
   }
   // ... 
}

I'm currently looking to use the metafile to more quickly map ../modules/uid to it's resolved path modules/uid/index.ts. The easiest way is to use the order they appear. This probably won't be necessary once there's access to the resolver (e.g. #641 (comment))

Thanks!

Ended up going with the workaround described in this comment since this doesn't account for imports getting added by plugins and is generally pretty fragile.
