.sortBy(collection, [iteratees=[.identity]])

sourcenpm package

Creates an array of elements, sorted in ascending order by the results of running each element in a collection thru each iteratee. This method performs a stable sort, that is, it preserves the original sort order of equal elements. The iteratees are invoked with one argument: (value).

Since

0.1.0

Arguments

• collection (Array|Object): The collection to iterate over.
• [iteratees=[.identity]] (…(Function|Function[]))_: The iteratees to sort by.

Returns

(Array): Returns the new sorted array.

Example

var users = [
  { 'user': 'fred',   'age': 48 },
  { 'user': 'barney', 'age': 36 },
  { 'user': 'fred',   'age': 40 },
  { 'user': 'barney', 'age': 34 }
];
 
_.sortBy(users, [function(o) { return o.user; }]);
// => objects for [['barney', 36], ['barney', 34], ['fred', 48], ['fred', 40]]
 
_.sortBy(users, ['user', 'age']);
// => objects for [['barney', 34], ['barney', 36], ['fred', 40], ['fred', 48]]
