OrderActionGroupsBy not working

[nastassiar]

I'm trying to use OrderActionGroupsBy to order my actions, but it always defaults to alphabetical order.

This is setting the configurations

   config.EnableSwagger(c =>
   {
        ...
        c.MultipleApiVersions(
           (apiDesc, targetApiVersion) => ResolveVersionSupportByRouteConstraint(apiDesc, targetApiVersion), 
           (vc) =>
            {
                        vc.Version("v2", "Swagger API V2");
                        vc.Version("v1", "Swagger API V1");
               });
        c.OrderActionGroupsBy(new CustomStringComparer());
        c.GroupActionsBy(apiDesc => GroupBy(apiDesc));
        ...
    }

This is grouping the actions by type instead of controllerName.

    private static string GroupBy(ApiDescription apiDesc)
    {
        var controllerName = apiDesc.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName;
        var path = apiDesc.RelativePath;

        if (controllerName.Contains("Original"))
        {
            controllerName = controllerName.Replace("Original", "");
        }
        // Check if it is one of the entities if so group by that
        // Otherwise group by controller
        var entities = new List<string>() { "Users", "Apps", "Groups" };


        var e = entities.Where(x => attr.Contains(x.ToLower())).FirstOrDefault();
        if (e != null)
        {
            return e;
        }
        return controllerName;
    }

This is my attempt at an IComparer I want Users first and then after that alphabetical

    public class CustomStringComparer : IComparer<string>
    {
        public int Compare(string x, string y)
        {
            if (x.CompareTo(y) == 0)
                return 0;

            if (x.CompareTo("Users") == 0)
                return -1;
            if (y.CompareTo("Users") == 0)
                return 1;

             return x.CompareTo(y);
        }
    }
}

This isn't working it always defaults to alphabetical no matter what I do.

It looks like swagger ui is defaulting to alphabetical ordering (i.e. apisSorter: "alpha") even though the documentation says it is supposed to default to the servers ordering. Is this a bug? My Json file is properly sorted.

Based off of the documentation it seems like it should default to server order, but in swagger-ui apisSorter is set to 'alpha':

Apply a sort to the API/tags list. It can be 'alpha' (sort by name) or a function (see
Array.prototype.sort() to know how sort function works). Default is the order returned by the server
unchanged.

So it seems like the swagger-ui documentation was not updated with the upgrade to 2.0 but I'm still wondering if there is a way in swashbuckle to override this to use the server order. It doesn't seem like Swashbuckle's OrderActionGroupsBy isn't functional at all.
