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);

完整的动态功能 我跳到这里进行关联数组排序，并在http://php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php上找到了这个惊人的函数。这个函数是非常动态的，用指定的键按升序和降序排序。

按特定键对数组排序的简单函数。维护索引关联

<?php

function array_sort($array, $on, $order=SORT_ASC)
{
    $new_array = array();
    $sortable_array = array();

    if (count($array) > 0) {
        foreach ($array as $k => $v) {
            if (is_array($v)) {
                foreach ($v as $k2 => $v2) {
                    if ($k2 == $on) {
                        $sortable_array[$k] = $v2;
                    }
                }
            } else {
                $sortable_array[$k] = $v;
            }
        }

        switch ($order) {
            case SORT_ASC:
                asort($sortable_array);
            break;
            case SORT_DESC:
                arsort($sortable_array);
            break;
        }

        foreach ($sortable_array as $k => $v) {
            $new_array[$k] = $array[$k];
        }
    }

    return $new_array;
}

$people = array(
    12345 => array(
        'id' => 12345,
        'first_name' => 'Joe',
        'surname' => 'Bloggs',
        'age' => 23,
        'sex' => 'm'
    ),
    12346 => array(
        'id' => 12346,
        'first_name' => 'Adam',
        'surname' => 'Smith',
        'age' => 18,
        'sex' => 'm'
    ),
    12347 => array(
        'id' => 12347,
        'first_name' => 'Amy',
        'surname' => 'Jones',
        'age' => 21,
        'sex' => 'f'
    )
);

print_r(array_sort($people, 'age', SORT_DESC)); // Sort by oldest first
print_r(array_sort($people, 'surname', SORT_ASC)); // Sort by surname

虽然其他人正确地建议使用array_multisort()，但由于某种原因，似乎没有答案承认array_column()的存在，它可以极大地简化解决方案。所以我的建议是:

array_multisort(array_column($inventory, 'price'), SORT_DESC, $inventory);

如果你想对字符串进行不区分大小写排序，你可以使用SORT_NATURAL|SORT_FLAG_CASE

array_multisort(array_column($inventory, 'key_name'), SORT_DESC, SORT_NATURAL|SORT_FLAG_CASE, $inventory);

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

function pricesort($a, $b) {
  $a = $a['price'];
  $b = $b['price'];
  if ($a == $b)
    return 0;
  return ($a > $b) ? -1 : 1;
}

usort($inventory, "pricesort");
// uksort($inventory, "pricesort");

print("first: ".$inventory[0]['type']."\n\n");
// for usort(): prints milk (item with lowest price)
// for uksort(): prints fruit (item with key 0 in the original $inventory)

// foreach prints the same for usort and uksort.
foreach($inventory as $i){
  print($i['type'].": ".$i['price']."\n");
}

输出:

first: pork

pork: 5.43
fruit: 3.5
milk: 2.9

您可以尝试定义自己的比较函数，然后使用usort。

试试这个:

$prices = array_column($inventory, 'price');
array_multisort($prices, SORT_DESC, $inventory);
print_r($inventory);
