var objects = [{'Name': 'John', 'Age': 23, 'Profession': 'Accountant'},
{'Name': 'Adam', 'Age': 18, 'Profession': 'Engineer'},
{'Name': 'Vik', 'Age': 46, 'Profession': 'Architect'},
{'Name': 'Jane', 'Age': 36, 'Profession': 'Developer'},
{'Name': 'Rikky', 'Age': 28, 'Profession': 'Developer'}];
The following function call sorts the array by 'Profession' then by 'Name' descendantly
sortBy(objects, 'Profession', {'Name': 'desc'});
console.table(objects);
The result will be the following:
Now let's have a look at the method implementation.
var sortBy = function(arr, ...sortByArgs){
arr.sort(function(a,b){
var sortResult = 0;
sortByArgs.forEach(function(arg){
if (sortResult != 0) return;
if(Object.values(arg)[0] == 'desc'){
var propName = Object.keys(arg)[0];
if (a[propName] > b[propName]){
sortResult = -1;
return;
}
if (a[propName] < b[propName]) {
sortResult = 1;
return;
}
}
else {
if (a[arg] < b[arg]){
sortResult = -1;
return;
}
if (a[arg] > b[arg]) {
sortResult = 1;
return;
}
}
});
return sortResult;
});
};
