I have an array like this
let years =[
{id: 3, name: "2016", age: "None"},
{id: 1, name: "2017", age: "None"},
{id: 2, name: "2015", age: "None"},
{id: 5, name: "2018", age: "None"},
{id: 3, name: "2018/2019", age: "None"}
]
years.sort((c1, c2) => {
return c2.name - c1.name;
});
console.log(years); I couldn't deal with this "2018/2017" way how can I do it what is the best way to do it
You can use localeCompare
const years = [
{ id: 3, name: '2016', age: 'None' },
{ id: 1, name: '2017', age: 'None' },
{ id: 2, name: '2015', age: 'None' },
{ id: 5, name: '2018', age: 'None' },
{ id: 3, name: '2018/2019', age: 'None' },
];
years.sort((c1, c2) => c2.name.localeCompare(c1.name));
console.log(years);You are almost there...Just a little change in your sort callback and it's done::
let years = [
{ id: 3, name: '2016', age: 'None' },
{ id: 1, name: '2017', age: 'None' },
{ id: 2, name: '2015', age: 'None' },
{ id: 5, name: '2018', age: 'None' },
{ id: 3, name: '2018/2019', age: 'None' },
];
years.sort((c1, c2) => {
var n1 = c1.name;
var n2 = c2.name;
if(n1 > n2){return -1;
}else if(n2 > n1){ return 1;
}else{return 0;}
});
console.log(years);Try this:
years.sort((c1, c2) => {
if (c1.name > c2.name) return -1;
if (c1.name < c2.name) return 1;
return 0;
});
You could use lodash _.sortBy
var years =
[{id: 5, name: "2018", age: "None"},
{id: 3, name: "2018/2017", age: "None"},
{id: 1, name: "2017", age: "None"},
{id: 3, name: "2016", age: "None"},
{id: 2, name: "2015", age: "None"}]
_.sortBy(years, ['name']);
Output would be
