Sort array by firstname (alphabetically) in Javascript

Question

I got an array (see below for one object in the array) that I need to sort by firstname using JavaScript. How can I do it?

var user = {
   bio: null,
   emai         


        

Answer 1

In case we are sorting names or something with special characters, like ñ or áéíóú (commons in Spanish) we could use the params locales (es for spanish in this case ) and options like this:

let user = [{'firstname': 'Az'},{'firstname': 'Áb'},{'firstname':'ay'},{'firstname': 'Ña'},{'firstname': 'Nz'},{'firstname': 'ny'}];


user.sort((a, b) => a.firstname.localeCompare(b.firstname, 'es', {sensitivity: 'base'}))


console.log(user)

The oficial locale options could be found here in iana, es (spanish), de (German), fr (French). About sensitivity base means:

Only strings that differ in base letters compare as unequal. Examples: a ≠ b, a = á, a = A.
