One possible solution is to utilize the sort function...
obj.sort(function(a,b) {
return a[Object.keys(a)[0]] - b[Object.keys(b)[0]];
});
This code snippet is essentially the same as:
obj.sort(function(a,b) {
var aValue = a[Object.keys(a)[0]];
var bValue = b[Object.keys(b)[0]];
if (aValue > bValue)
return 1;
else if (aValue < bValue)
return -1;
else
return 0;
});
When examining your edits, it seems you have found the solution. It may also be beneficial to explore how to extract elements from JSON, such as using Object.keys in your specific scenario.
Object.keys will generate an array containing the key strings.
Since your object only has a single key, you can access the first value in the array (index 0) and then perform the subtraction between the values from a and b.
a and b represent entries in your array, functioning as objects.
If you refer to this resource, you can gain a better understanding of how the sorting function operates.
Here is an excerpt of code from the provided resource:
function compare(a, b) {
if (a is less than b by some ordering criterion) {
return -1;
}
if (a is greater than b by the ordering criterion) {
return 1;
}
// a must be equal to b
return 0;
}
