jsort

Simple array sorting utility supporting multiple data types.

Install

npm install --save jsort

Usage

jsort.<dataType>(array [, key])

Available data types include: text, numeric, currency and date. Default sorting order is ASC.

jsort.text(['Argentina', 'Australia', 'New Zealand', 'Ireland', 'Canada']);
jsort.numeric([2.01, 1.3555, 3, 1990]);
jsort.currency(['$1,726', '$3,021,726.00', '$120.75']);
jsort.date(['2015-01-31', '01/30/2015', 'Sat, Jan 3, 2015', 'January 31, 2014']);

When a key gets passed in, jsort assumes the collection contains objects and will try to sort them by the key provided:

jsort.numeric([{name: 'Homer', age: 40}, {name: 'Marge', age: 35}], 'age');

jsort.<dataType>(array [, key]).reverse()

Reverse sort any array (DESC) by using the .reverse() method:

jsort.text(['I', 'am', 'Yoda']).reverse(); // returns ['Yoda', 'I', 'am']

Run Test Suite

npm test

Release Versions

1. git fetch
2. git checkout develop && git reset --hard origin/develop
3. npm version [<newversion> | major | minor | patch]
4. git checkout master && git reset --hard origin/master
5. git merge develop
6. git push --tags && git push && git checkout develop && git push

Publish the package to npm's public registry:

npm publish

To make sure everything worked just fine, go to http://npmjs.com/package/jsort.

Heads up! To publish, you must have a user on the npm registry. If you don't have one, create it with npm adduser. If you created one on the site, use npm login to store the credentials on the client. You can use npm config ls to ensure that the credentials are stored on your client. Check that it has been added to the registry by going to http://npmjs.com/~.

Semantic Versioning

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner, and
3. PATCH version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes.

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.

See the Semantic Versioning specification for more information.
