sort
The sort transformer sorts an input array.
It takes the following arguments:
by: The key to sort by. If not specified, the array is sorted by its values, assuming the values are comparable. If the values are not comparable, an error will be thrown.reverse: If true, the array is sorted in reverse order.
The sort key can be a string, referencing a value of an object in the array. This does only work for objects nested directly in the array,
Examples

"type": "array",
"length": {
"value": 5
},
"items": {
"type": "integer",
"min": 0,
"max": 100
},
"transform": [

"type": "sort"
}
]
