JSON Deep Sort is a powerful and versatile TypeScript package designed for efficient sorting of JSON objects by keys. It offers:
- Comprehensive handling of deeply nested objects and arrays
- Flexible sorting options, including ascending and descending order
- Support for both synchronous and asynchronous operations
- Preservation of non-sortable objects (e.g., Date, RegExp, Function)
- Lightweight implementation with zero dependencies
Whether you're working with simple flat objects or complex nested structures, JSON Deep Sort provides a reliable solution for organizing your data.
Using npm:
npm install @tamtamchik/json-deep-sortUsing yarn:
yarn add @tamtamchik/json-deep-sortImport JSON Deep Sort in your TypeScript file:
import { sort } from '@tamtamchik/json-deep-sort';Here is an example of sorting a JSON object:
// Example 1: Sorting a simple object
const simpleData = { b: 'b', a: 'a', c: 'c' };
console.log(sort(simpleData));
// Output: { a: 'a', b: 'b', c: 'c' }
// Example 2: Sorting a nested object
const nestedData = {
b: 'b',
a: 'a',
c: { d: 'd', c: 'c', a: 'a', b: 'b' }
};
console.log(sort(nestedData));
// Output: { a: 'a', b: 'b', c: { a: 'a', b: 'b', c: 'c', d: 'd' } }
// Example 3: Sorting an array of objects
const arrayData = [{ b: 'b', a: 'a' }, { d: 'd', c: 'c' }];
console.log(sort(arrayData));
// Output: [{ a: 'a', b: 'b' }, { c: 'c', d: 'd' }]
// Example 4: Sorting in descending order
const descendingData = { a: 'a', c: 'c', b: 'b' };
console.log(sort(descendingData, false));
// Output: { c: 'c', b: 'b', a: 'a' }
// Example 5: Handling mixed data types
const mixedData = {
b: [3, 1, 2],
a: { z: 'z', y: 'y' },
c: new Date('2023-01-01')
};
console.log(sort(mixedData));
// Output: { a: { y: 'y', z: 'z' }, b: [3, 1, 2], c: Date('2023-01-01') }Pull requests are welcome. For major changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.
