我有一个JavaScript对象数组:

var objs = [ 
    { first_nom: 'Lazslo', last_nom: 'Jamf'     },
    { first_nom: 'Pig',    last_nom: 'Bodine'   },
    { first_nom: 'Pirate', last_nom: 'Prentice' }
];

如何在JavaScript中按last_nom的值对它们进行排序?

我知道排序(a,b),但这似乎只适用于字符串和数字。是否需要向对象添加toString()方法?


当前回答

let propName = 'last_nom';

let sorted_obj = objs.sort((a,b) => {
    if(a[propName] > b[propName]) {
        return 1;
    }
    if (a[propName] < b[propName]) {
        return -1;
    }
    return 0;
}

//This works because the js built-in sort function allows us to define our
//own way of sorting, this funny looking function is simply telling `sort` how to
//determine what is larger. 
//We can use `if(a[propName] > b[propName])` because string comparison is already built into JS
//if you try console.log('a' > 'z' ? 'a' : 'z')
//the output will be 'z' as 'a' is not greater than 'z'
//The return values 0,-1,1 are how we tell JS what to sort on. We're sorting on the last_nom property of the object. 
//When sorting a list it comes down to comparing two items and how to determine which one of them is "larger". 
//We need a way to tell JS how to determine which one is larger. 
//The sort defining function will use the case that returns a 1 to mean that a > b
//and the case that returns -1 to mean that a < b

截至2018年,有一个更短、更优雅的解决方案。使用即可。Array.prototype.sort()。

例子:

var items = [
  { name: 'Edward', value: 21 },
  { name: 'Sharpe', value: 37 },
  { name: 'And', value: 45 },
  { name: 'The', value: -12 },
  { name: 'Magnetic', value: 13 },
  { name: 'Zeros', value: 37 }
];

// sort by value
items.sort(function (a, b) {
  return a.value - b.value;
});

我刚刚增强了EgeÖzcan的动态分类,可以深入物体内部。

如果数据如下所示:

obj = [
    {
        a: { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 },
        b: { a: 4, b: 5, c: 6 }
    },
    {
        a: { a: 3, b: 2, c: 1 },
        b: { a: 6, b: 5, c: 4 }
}];

如果你想在a.a属性中进行排序,我认为我的增强功能非常有用。我向以下对象添加了新功能:

Object.defineProperty(Object.prototype, 'deepVal', {
    enumerable: false,
    writable: true,
    value: function (propertyChain) {
        var levels = propertyChain.split('.');
        parent = this;
        for (var i = 0; i < levels.length; i++) {
            if (!parent[levels[i]])
                return undefined;
            parent = parent[levels[i]];
        }
        return parent;
    }
});

并更改了_dynamicSort的返回函数:

return function (a, b) {
    var result = ((a.deepVal(property) > b.deepVal(property)) - (a.deepVal(property) < b.deepVal(property)));
    return result * sortOrder;
}

现在你可以这样按a.a.排序:

obj.sortBy('a.a');

我知道已经有很多答案了,包括那些带有localeCompare的答案,但如果您出于某种原因不想/不能使用localeCompae,我建议您使用此解决方案,而不是三元运算符解决方案:

objects.sort((a, b) => (a.name > b.name) - (a.name < b.name));

有人可能会说,这段代码在做什么并不明显,但在我看来,三元运算符更糟糕。如果一个三元运算符足够可读,那么两个三元操作符一个嵌入另一个-真的很难读而且很难看。只有两个比较运算符和一个减号运算符的单行代码非常容易阅读,因此很容易推理。

不正确的旧答案:

arr.sort((a, b) => a.name > b.name)

更新

博尚的评论:

arr.sort((a, b) => a.name < b.name ? -1 : (a.name > b.name ? 1 : 0))

更可读的格式:

arr.sort((a, b) => {
  if (a.name < b.name) return -1
  return a.name > b.name ? 1 : 0
})

没有嵌套的三元组:

arr.sort((a, b) => a.name < b.name ? - 1 : Number(a.name > b.name))

说明:Number()将强制为true,并强制为false。

如果您有嵌套对象

const objs = [{
        first_nom: 'Lazslo',
        last_nom: 'Jamf',
        moreDetails: {
            age: 20
        }
    }, {
        first_nom: 'Pig',
        last_nom: 'Bodine',
        moreDetails: {
            age: 21
        }
    }, {
        first_nom: 'Pirate',
        last_nom: 'Prentice',
        moreDetails: {
            age: 22
        }
    }];

nestedSort = (prop1, prop2 = null, direction = 'asc') => (e1, e2) => {
        const a = prop2 ? e1[prop1][prop2] : e1[prop1],
            b = prop2 ? e2[prop1][prop2] : e2[prop1],
            sortOrder = direction === "asc" ? 1 : -1
        return (a < b) ? -sortOrder : (a > b) ? sortOrder : 0;
    }

并称之为

objs.sort(nestedSort("last_nom"));
objs.sort(nestedSort("last_nom", null, "desc"));
objs.sort(nestedSort("moreDetails", "age"));
objs.sort(nestedSort("moreDetails", "age", "desc"));
