$.array.sort

Sort method of array helpers

You may want to create ordering or to sort array of items in ascending or descending, you need to use this sort helper, here we provide sorting in numbers, strings, array of objects and callback or compare function.

$.array.sort(arrayofItems, sortBy)

// Example:
const fromNumbers = [5, 3, 6, 4, 2, 1, 7]
$.array.sort(fromNumbers, 'asc')
//=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

const fromStrings = ['Aba', 'Cara', 'Data', 'Baca', 'Eja', 'Fasih', 'Gara']
$.array.sort(fromStrings, 'desc')
//=> ['Gara', 'Fasih', 'Eja',  'Data', 'Cara', 'Baca', 'Aba']

If you guys want to order or sort the array of objects, you can use sortBy helper for this.

$.array.sortBy(fromArray, objectPropKey, sortBy)

// Example:
const fromArray = [
  { id: 1, name: 'Hanbal Tedir', office: 'Jakarta', age: 30 },
  { id: 2, name: 'Dawoud Tedir', office: 'Medan', age: 27 },
  { id: 3, name: 'Harist Tedir', office: 'Sigli', age: 15 },
  { id: 4, name: 'Tedir Ghazali', office: 'Banda Aceh', age: 29 },
  { id: 5, name: 'Hanbal Usman', office: 'Langsa', age: 27 },
  { id: 6, name: 'Dawoud Usman', office: 'Pidie', age: 25 },
  { id: 7, name: 'Harist Usman', office: 'Samarinda', age: 18 },
  { id: 8, name: 'Ghazali Usman', office: 'Balikpapan', age: 45 },
  { id: 9, name: 'Bukhari Usman', office: 'Makassar', age: 44 },
  { id: 10, name: 'Boyhaki Usman', office: 'Jaya Pura', age: 35 },
  { id: 11, name: 'Zulkifli Usman', office: 'Manado', age: 56 },
  { id: 12, name: 'Teuku Usman', office: 'Ternate', age: 58 }
]
$.array.sortBy(fromArray, 'name', 'desc')
//=> [
//  { id: 11, name: 'Zulkifli Usman', office: 'Manado', age: 56 },
//  { id: 12, name: 'Teuku Usman', office: 'Ternate', age: 58 },
//  { id: 4, name: 'Tedir Ghazali', office: 'Banda Aceh', age: 29 },
//  { id: 7, name: 'Harist Usman', office: 'Samarinda', age: 18 },
//  { id: 3, name: 'Harist Tedir', office: 'Sigli', age: 15 },
//  { id: 5, name: 'Hanbal Usman', office: 'Langsa', age: 27 },
//  { id: 1, name: 'Hanbal Tedir', office: 'Jakarta', age: 30 },
//  { id: 8, name: 'Ghazali Usman', office: 'Balikpapan', age: 45 },
//  { id: 6, name: 'Dawoud Usman', office: 'Pidie', age: 25 },
//  { id: 2, name: 'Dawoud Tedir', office: 'Medan', age: 27 },
//  { id: 9, name: 'Bukhari Usman', office: 'Makassar', age: 44 },
//  { id: 10, name: 'Boyhaki Usman', office: 'Jaya Pura', age: 35 }
//]

Or if you guys want to compare manually by yourself, you can use callback or compare function that we provide in sortWith helper.

$.array.sortWith(fromArray, callbackOrCompareFunction)

// Example:
const fromArray = ['premier', 'réservé', 'communiqué', 'café', 'adieu', 'éclair']

$.array.sortWith(fromArray, (a, b) => a.localeCompare(b))
//=> ['adieu', 'café', 'communiqué', 'éclair', 'premier', 'réservé']

$.array.sortWith(fromArray, (a, b) => b.localeCompare(a))
//=> ["réservé", "premier", "éclair", "communiqué", "café", "adieu"]
