Example 1: sort list of dictionaries by key python
newlist = sorted(list_to_be_sorted, key=lambda k: k['name'])
Example 2: sort list of dictionaries python
unsorted_list = [{"key1":5, "key2":2}, {"key1":5, "key2":1}]
sorted_list = sorted(unsorted_list, key=lambda k: k["key2"])
Example 3: sort dict of dicts by key
channels = {
'24': {'type': 'plain', 'table_name': 'channel.items.AuctionChannel'},
'26': {'type': 'plain', 'table_name': 'channel.gm.DeleteAvatarChannel'},
'27': {'type': 'plain', 'table_name': 'channel.gm.AvatarMoneyChannel'},

'22': {'type': 'plain', 'table_name': 'channel.gm.DistributionMarkChannel'},
'23': {'type': 'plain', 'table_name': 'channel.gm.MailChannel'}
}
channels = collection.OrderedDict(sorted(channels.items(), key=lambda item: item[0]))
for key,value in channels.items():
print(key, ':', value)
