给定这个数组:

$inventory = array(

   array("type"=>"fruit", "price"=>3.50),
   array("type"=>"milk", "price"=>2.90),
   array("type"=>"pork", "price"=>5.43),

);

我想按价格排序$inventory的元素,以获得:

$inventory = array(

   array("type"=>"pork", "price"=>5.43),
   array("type"=>"fruit", "price"=>3.50),
   array("type"=>"milk", "price"=>2.90),

);

我该怎么做呢?


当前回答

你是对的,你要找的函数是array_multisort()。

下面是一个直接摘自手册并根据你的情况进行调整的例子:

$price = array();
foreach ($inventory as $key => $row)
{
    $price[$key] = $row['price'];
}
array_multisort($price, SORT_DESC, $inventory);

从PHP 5.5.0开始,你可以使用array_column()来代替foreach:

$price = array_column($inventory, 'price');

array_multisort($price, SORT_DESC, $inventory);

适用于PHP 7及更高版本。

/**
 * A method for sorting associative arrays by a key and a direction.
 * Direction can be ASC or DESC.
 *
 * @param $array
 * @param $key
 * @param $direction
 * @return mixed $array
 */
function sortAssociativeArrayByKey($array, $key, $direction){

    switch ($direction){
        case "ASC":
            usort($array, function ($first, $second) use ($key) {
                return $first[$key] <=> $second[$key];
            });
            break;
        case "DESC":
            usort($array, function ($first, $second) use ($key) {
                return $second[$key] <=> $first[$key];
            });
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }

    return $array;
}

用法:

$inventory = sortAssociativeArrayByKey($inventory, "price", "ASC");

这个函数在所有主要的PHP版本上都可以100%运行,并且在PHP5, PHP7, PHP8上都进行了测试。

    function sort_my_array($array, $order_by, $order)
    {
        switch ($order) {
            case "asc":
                usort($array, function ($first, $second) use ($order_by) {
                    if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '7.0.0') >= 0) {
                        return $first[$order_by] <=> $second[$order_by];
                    } else {
                        $array_cmp = strcmp($first[$order_by], $second[$order_by]);
                        return $array_cmp ;
                    }
                });
                break;
            case "desc":
                usort($certificates, function ($first, $second) use ($order_by) {
                    if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '7.0.0') >= 0) {
                        return $first[$order_by] <=> $second[$order_by];
                    } else {
                        $array_cmp = strcmp($first[$order_by], $second[$order_by]);
                        return -$array_cmp ;
                    }
                });
                break;
            default:
                break;
        }
        return $array;
    }

我是这样用的

<?php
$users = [
    [
        'username' => 'joe',
        'age' => 11
    ],
    [
        'username' => 'rakoto',
        'age' => 21
    ],
    [
        'username' => 'rabe',
        'age' => 17
    ],
    [
        'username' => 'fy',
        'age' => 19
    ],    
];


uasort($users, function ($item, $compare) {
    return $item['username'] >= $compare['username']; 
});

var_dump($users);

从PHP 7.4开始,你可以使用arrow函数:

usort(
    $inventory, 
    fn(array $a, array $b): int => $b['price'] <=> $a['price']
);

代码(演示):

$inventory = [
    ['type' => 'fruit', 'price' => 3.50],
    ['type' => 'milk',  'price' => 2.90],
    ['type' => 'pork',  'price' => 5.43],
];

usort(
    $inventory, 
    fn(array $a, array $b): int => $b['price'] <=> $a['price']
);

print_r($inventory);

(浓缩)输出:

Array
(
    [0] => Array ([type] => pork,  [price] => 5.43)
    [1] => Array ([type] => fruit, [price] => 3.5)
    [2] => Array ([type] => milk,  [price] => 2.9)
)

在php中,根据给定key的值对关联数组进行排序:

通过使用usort (http://php.net/usort),我们可以按升序和降序对数组进行排序。只是我们需要创建一个函数,并将其作为参数传递给usort。按照下面的例子,使用大于表示升序,如果我们通过小于条件,那么它将按降序排序。 例子:

$array = array(
  array('price'=>'1000.50','product'=>'test1'),
  array('price'=>'8800.50','product'=>'test2'),
  array('price'=>'200.0','product'=>'test3')
);

function cmp($a, $b) {
  return $a['price'] > $b['price'];
}

usort($array, "cmp");
print_r($array);

输出:

Array
 (
    [0] => Array
        (
            [price] => 200.0
            [product] => test3
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [price] => 1000.50
            [product] => test1
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [price] => 8800.50
            [product] => test2
        )
  )
