Change sort order of configuration options on config single export form

Think such a change will require test coverage.

Would recommend an MR as patches are phased out and don't auto run the tests anymore. I'll trigger though.

Yes, I was admittedly being lazy by attaching a patch. :) but now I'll make an MR so I can add tests.

Created an MR with the change to the dropdown, and a test to verify that the options are being sorted alphabetically. Hiding the patch file.

Ran the test-only feature in gitlab but the test did not fail. See https://git.drupalcode.org/issue/drupal-3399152/-/jobs/296610 so leaving that tag.

Also seems some existing tests have failed.

There was another functional test that was checking config name labels, and it needed the id/label reversed. Updated that test and pushed up the changes.

Test-only feature is failed.

But there is an open thread from @zniki.ru

I figured out the test block creation part by using BlockContentSaveTest::createBlockContent() as an example. Once I then figured out I needed to use $this->drupalPlaceBlock inside my setUp() method, I was good to go.

@SamLerner thanks for updating the test scenario. MR looks good, I add some comments, please check and provide feedback.

Thanks for MR update. Looks good. RTBC.

I'm not totally sure about this change, so tagging for subsystem maintainer review. Additionally, since this is intended as a usability improvement, it should have embedded before and after screenshots in the issue summary.

Posted a few points on the MR as well. Thanks!

Made all the code updates and attached before/after screenshots.

@SamLerner MR#19 has been successfully applied, and now the dropdown will open in the 'config export' based on the machine name.

Is there anything else needed for this issue?

The issue still needs subsystem maintainer signoff for the user expectations of this developer-facing form. @alexpott or @tim.plunkett are maintainers of relevant related subsystems.

Hi, Verified and tested #20 by taking pull from the latest branch on 11.x version. The changes were made are looking fine to me.
Followed the below steps:
1. Log in and go to /admin/config/development/configuration/single/export
2. Under Configuration type select Block.
3. Open the Configuration name dropdown
4. See the order is based on label, not machine name.
Attaching screenshot for reference.
Thanks

This seems like a better way of presenting this information. Nice one.

Thanks! I find it extremely useful because when I'm going to export single configs, I usually know the machine name, as that's what's displayed on the Config Synchronization page at /admin/config/development/configuration. Trying to sort through hundreds of configs by was pretty time-consuming.

Thanks @alexpott!

Removing screenshots tag as they appear in the issue summary.

Confirmed applying the MR I'm seeing the configuration sorted by machine name.

Committed 4b3313c and pushed to 11.x. Thanks!

Nice improvement! 😊
