Yii2 data provider default sorting

Yii 2.0 General Discussions
1

In Yii 1.1 this code works for default sorting:

$dataProvider = new CActiveDataProvider('article',array(
    'sort'=>array(
        'defaultOrder'=>'id DESC',
    ),
));

How default sorting can be set in Yii2?

Tried below code, but no result:

$dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
    'query' => $query,
    'sort' => ['defaultOrder'=>'topic_order asc']
]);

for parameter required for sorting see: Sort, yii\data\Sort | API Documentation for Yii 2.0 | Yii PHP Framework

$sort = new Sort([
        'attributes' => [
            'age',
            'name' => [
                'asc' => ['first_name' => SORT_ASC, 'last_name' => SORT_ASC],
                'desc' => ['first_name' => SORT_DESC, 'last_name' => SORT_DESC],
                'default' => SORT_DESC,
                'label' => 'Name',
            ],
        ],
    ]);
