How can I sort an [array of objects by date] that is the second child of an array ?
I get the following array structure:
array = [
["2022/04/14", [object]],
["2022/04/15", [object]],
["2022/04/20", [object, object, object]],
["2022/04/25", [object, object]],
["2022/04/30", [object]]
];
//where each object contain a date property that include time
//for exemple each object get :
{
param1:"someText"
date: Fri Apr 15 2022 18:00:00 GMT+0200
paramX:"someText"
}
For the days that include more than one object, objects are not sorted by time.
I've texted the following method, but can't get success with it
const sortedArray = array.sort((a, b) => {
return new Date(a[1][1].date).getTime() - new Date(b[1][1].date).getTime();
});
How can I sort object by time for each day of this array ?
Thank you for your help
Surely there is a more elegant way to solve this problem but here is my approach.
// Here is the result of sorting the objects
const formattedArray = [];
const sortedArray = array.forEach((item, index) => {
const sortedObjects = item[1].sort((a, b) => {
return new Date(a.date) - new Date(b.date);
});
formattedArray[index] = [item[0], sortedObjects];
})
You don't need to use .getTime().
