Order of generating endpoints

[magx2]

Hey,

I just want to ask if the order of processed controllers is always guaranteed to be the same? I'm running mvn compile few times in a row and the generated output (yaml) is different.

For sake of git compatibility I would like to have paths, tags, etc. always is same order (alphabetical?)

I agree it should be deterministic. Especially because the vast majority of the automated tests expect a fully deterministic output.

I see two flaws in the current implementation :

• There is no guaranteed order for the "tags". It depends from the classpath order and/or the implementation of the Reflection library.
• Inside a tag, every path is ordered alphabetically, but there is no guarantee for operations with the same path. We should define a static order for operation on the same path, like :

1. GET
2. POST
3. PUT
4. PATCH
5. DELETE

And normally, the "schemas" section is already fully deterministic.

Creating the issue. But it might take me a week to do it since I expect to have to update most of the TUs.
