Sorting JS Object

JavaScript
1

Hi all ,

var data = [
  {
    "metadata" : {
      "names":["times","values","types"],
      "types":["time","linear","ordinal"]
    },
    "data": [
      ["1459016130000",12.0,"GAP"],
      ["1459016130003",12.0,"GAP"],
      ["1459016130001",12.0,"GAP"],
      ["1459016130002",12.0,"GAP"]
    ]
  }
];

How can I sort this JSON by timestamp value ?

straight off MDN:

data[0].data.sort(function(a, b) {
    return a[0] - b[0];
});

Hi @Mohit_Singh, do you mean that data[0].data array? That could be done like

data[0].data.sort((a, b) => a[0] - b[0]);

This outputs undefined error.

Arrow functions are ES2015. They are not well supported.
