js sort objects descending code example
Example 1: javascript orderby
var items = [
{ name: 'Edward', value: 21 },
{ name: 'Sharpe', value: 37 },
{ name: 'And', value: 45 },
{ name: 'The', value: -12 },
{ name: 'Magnetic', value: 13 },
{ name: 'Zeros', value: 37 }
];
items.sort(function (a, b) {
return a.value - b.value;
});
items.sort(function(a, b) {
var nameA = a.name.toUpperCase();
var nameB = b.name.toUpperCase();
if (nameA < nameB) {
return -1;
}
if (nameA > nameB) {
return 1;
}
return 0;
});
Example 2: javascript sort array of objects by key value ascending and descending order
function compareValues(key, order = 'asc') {
return function innerSort(a, b) {
if (!a.hasOwnProperty(key) || !b.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
return 0;
}
const varA = (typeof a[key] === 'string')
? a[key].toUpperCase() : a[key];
const varB = (typeof b[key] === 'string')
? b[key].toUpperCase() : b[key];
let comparison = 0;
if (varA > varB) {
comparison = 1;
} else if (varA < varB) {
comparison = -1;
}
return (
(order === 'desc') ? (comparison * -1) : comparison
);
};
}
