Add option to keep quotes

[Joris29]

Could you add an option to just keep quotes as they are when sorting.

Example.
parent_key:
'Pkey2 with space':
k1: v1
k2: 'v2'
'Pkey1 with space':
k1: 'v1'
k2: v2

Would become:
parent_key:
Pkey1 with space:
k1: v1
k2: v2
Pkey2 with space:
k1: v1
k2: v2

What it should be if original quotes are ignored:
parent_key:
'Pkey1 with space':
k1: v1
k2: 'v2'
'Pkey2 with space':
k1: 'v1'
k2: v2

@pascalre ?

[paulcalabro]

Yeah, I agree this is my only annoyance. This breaks my Ansible playbooks since some values need to be quoted, for example when you have a leading "{{".

@pascalre Is this project dead because you don't seem to react to issues?

[pascalre]

Hello @Joris29, this project is not dead. But my time is limited. Feel free to contribute with a PR.

@pascalre Alright understandable I will try to do an attempt to create a PR for it but i have no knowledge of typescript but I guess I can learn it pretty fast

This is a reoccurrence of #142 which is partially resolved it's strange behaviour with quoting.

Using just single quotes or double quotes will change to nothing.
Using double quotes inside single quotes like this ' "this is a text" ' will remain as it should.
Using single quotes inside double quotes like this " 'this is a text' " will return three single quotes on each side

Very strange quoting behaviour but i will try to fix it

After doing some further research there is also another vscode extension for yaml validation which support sorting https://github.com/redhat-developer/yaml-language-server

@paulcalabro If you don't use the custom sorts it might be better to use that one for now. As the code is quite complex for me and it might take a while to have a working solution.

Seems like a lot of refactoring because the used library doesn't support it: nodeca/js-yaml#711 (comment)

Thanks @Joris29 !
