I Know there are lot of answers out there to sort date and time. But in every answer, they sort only date or they sort only time. I can't find the answer which sorts both date and time string.
Here's the Code I tried:
var x = [ '29/09/2020 11:55:56', '04/08/2021 11:57:06', '30/09/2019 15:19:49', '04/08/2021 13:57:06' ]
x.sort((a, b) => new Date(b).getTime() - new Date(a).getTime()).reverse();
console.log(x)
Output I got:
["04/08/2021 13:57:06", "30/09/2019 15:19:49", "04/08/2021 11:57:06", "29/09/2020 11:55:56"]
Required Output:
["04/08/2021 13:57:06","04/08/2021 11:57:06", "29/09/2020 11:55:56", "30/09/2019 15:19:49", ]
I searched whole day. Please Help me with some solutions to fix this.
The problem is that Date uses a yyyy/mm/dd format instead of a dd/mm/yyyy format. So all your Date objects are Invalid Date.
P.S. If you sort but have to reverse the order afterwards, just reverse the subtractions.
Date and time are not separate in the context of a javascript Date object, internally they are just stored as millisecond offsets. But, you can't rely on Date parsing strings for you. Write a custom parser for you specific date-time strings and then then simply subtract dates.
There's no need for reverse() either, simply switch the subtraction to change direction.
const x = [ '29/09/2020 11:55:56', '04/08/2021 11:57:06', '30/09/2019 15:19:49', '04/08/2021 13:57:06' ];
const parse_date_string = (str) => {
const [date, time]= str.split(' ');
const [day, month, year] = date.split('/');
const [hr, min, sec] = time.split(':');
return [year, (month - 1), day, hr, min, sec].map(Number);
}
x.sort((a, b) => new Date(...parse_date_string(b)) - new Date(...parse_date_string(a)));
console.log(x)if momentjs an option:
var x = [ '29/09/2020 11:55:56', '04/08/2021 11:57:06', '30/09/2019 15:19:49', '04/08/2021 13:57:06' ];
x.sort((a, b) => moment(b,"DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss") - (moment(a,"DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss")));
