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

编写短代码:

objs.sort((a, b) => a.last_nom > b.last_nom ? 1 : -1)

我没有看到任何类似于我的实现。此版本基于施瓦茨变换习惯用法。

function sortByAttribute(array, ...attrs) {
  // Generate an array of predicate-objects containing
  // property getter, and descending indicator
  let predicates = attrs.map(pred => {
    let descending = pred.charAt(0) === '-' ? -1 : 1;
    pred = pred.replace(/^-/, '');
    return {
      getter: o => o[pred],
      descend: descending
    };
  });
  // Schwartzian transform idiom implementation. AKA "decorate-sort-undecorate"
  return array.map(item => {
    return {
      src: item,
      compareValues: predicates.map(predicate => predicate.getter(item))
    };
  })
  .sort((o1, o2) => {
    let i = -1, result = 0;
    while (++i < predicates.length) {
      if (o1.compareValues[i] < o2.compareValues[i])
        result = -1;
      if (o1.compareValues[i] > o2.compareValues[i])
        result = 1;
      if (result *= predicates[i].descend)
        break;
    }
    return result;
  })
  .map(item => item.src);
}

下面是如何使用它的示例:

let games = [
  { name: 'Mashraki',          rating: 4.21 },
  { name: 'Hill Climb Racing', rating: 3.88 },
  { name: 'Angry Birds Space', rating: 3.88 },
  { name: 'Badland',           rating: 4.33 }
];

// Sort by one attribute
console.log(sortByAttribute(games, 'name'));
// Sort by mupltiple attributes
console.log(sortByAttribute(games, '-rating', 'name'));

您也可以使用自定义toString()方法(由默认比较函数调用)创建对象类型,而不是使用自定义比较函数:

function Person(firstName, lastName) {
    this.firtName = firstName;
    this.lastName = lastName;
}

Person.prototype.toString = function() {
    return this.lastName + ', ' + this.firstName;
}

var persons = [ new Person('Lazslo', 'Jamf'), ...]
persons.sort();
function compare(propName) {
    return function(a,b) {
        if (a[propName] < b[propName])
            return -1;
        if (a[propName] > b[propName])
            return 1;
        return 0;
    };
}

objs.sort(compare("last_nom"));

这将按照按字母数字顺序传递给它的属性对两级嵌套数组进行排序。

function sortArrayObjectsByPropAlphaNum(property) {
    return function (a,b) {
        var reA = /[^a-zA-Z]/g;
        var reN = /[^0-9]/g;
        var aA = a[property].replace(reA, '');
        var bA = b[property].replace(reA, '');

        if(aA === bA) {
            var aN = parseInt(a[property].replace(reN, ''), 10);
            var bN = parseInt(b[property].replace(reN, ''), 10);
            return aN === bN ? 0 : aN > bN ? 1 : -1;
        } else {
            return a[property] > b[property] ? 1 : -1;
        }
    };
}

用法:

objs.sort(utils.sortArrayObjectsByPropAlphaNum('last_nom'));
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
