Angular matSort does not sort

Question

I\'m having trouble with importing matSort into my matTable.

I\'m providing you with my code:

dashboard.component.ts

Answer 1

I had the same issue and fixed it by adding below:

@ViewChild(MatSort) set matSort(ms: MatSort) {
this.sort = ms;
this.setDataSourceAttributes();
 }

@ViewChild(MatPaginator) set matPaginator(mp: MatPaginator) {
 this.paginator = mp;
this.setDataSourceAttributes();
 }

setDataSourceAttributes() {
  this.dataSource.paginator = this.paginator;
  this.dataSource.sort = this.sort;
  }
