  return a.age - b.age;
}); // Sort youngest first

Example 4: javascript sort array of objects

const books = [
  {id: 1, name: 'The Lord of the Rings'},
  {id: 2, name: 'A Tale of Two Cities'},
  {id: 3, name: 'Don Quixote'},
  {id: 4, name: 'The Hobbit'}
]

compareObjects(object1, object2, key) {
  const obj1 = object1[key].toUpperCase()
  const obj2 = object2[key].toUpperCase()

  if (obj1 < obj2) {
    return -1
  }
  if (obj1 > obj2) {
    return 1
  }
  return 0
}

books.sort((book1, book2) => {
  return compareObjects(book1, book2, 'name')
})

// Result:
// {id: 2, name: 'A Tale of Two Cities'}
// {id: 3, name: 'Don Quixote'}
// {id: 4, name: 'The Hobbit'}
// {id: 1, name: 'The Lord of the Rings'}

Example 5: javascript sort object by key

function sortObjectByKeys(o) {
    return Object.keys(o).sort().reduce((r, k) => (r[k] = o[k], r), {});
}
var unsorted = {"c":"crane","b":"boy","a":"ant"};
var sorted=sortObjectByKeys(unsorted); //{a: "ant", b: "boy", c: "crane"}

Example 6: sort array of objects javascript by value

let orders = [
  { 
    order: 'order 1', date: '2020/04/01_11:09:05'
  },
  { 
    order: 'order 2', date: '2020/04/01_10:29:35'
  },
  { 
    order: 'order 3', date: '2020/04/01_10:28:44'
  }
];


console.log(orders);

orders.sort(function(a, b){
  let dateA = a.date.toLowerCase();
  let dateB = b.date.toLowerCase();
  if (dateA < dateB) 
  {
    return -1;
  }    
  else if (dateA > dateB)
  {
    return 1;
  }   
  return 0;
});
