A utility for parsing sorts provided from external input. Only allows sorting on public attributes and aggregates.

The supported formats are:

Sort Strings

A comma separated list of fields to sort on, each with an optional prefix.

The prefixes are:

• "+" - Same as no prefix. Sorts :asc.
• "++" - Sorts :asc_nils_first
• "-" - Sorts :desc
• "--" - Sorts :desc_nils_last

For example

"foo,-bar,++baz,--buz"

["foo", "-bar", "++baz", "--buz"]
