I'm trying to sort an array of objects by the rate and alphabetical order.

So I sorted it by rate successfully. BUT THE PROBLEM is when I tried sorting it by alphabetical order, it doesn't work. I have no idea how to sort it again by alphabetical order.

The source code and the result is written at the bottom.

// This is the success result that I want to get **(sorted by rate && sorted by alphabetic order)**

{
abcd ( title)
lorem ipsum (comment)
5 (rate) 
},

{
efg 
lorem ipsum 
5 
},

{
bdg
lorem ipsum
3
},

{
def
lorem ipsum
3
},

{
abc
lorem ipsum
1
}

Source Code

const Reviews = ({ books, initialData }) => {
  const combinedBooks = initialData.concat(books);

  //   sort by rate
  let sorted = combinedBooks.sort((a, b) => {
    return b.score - a.score;
  });

  //   sort by alphabetical order
    let newSorted = sorted.sort(function (a, b) {
      let fa = a.title.toLowerCase(),
        fb = b.title.toLowerCase();

      if (fa < fb) {
        return -1;
      }
      if (fa > fb) {
        return 1;
      }
      return 0;
    });

  return (
    <section style={{ border: "3px solid green" }}>
      <Header title="Book Review Lists" />
      {sorted.map((review) => {
        const { id, title, comment, score } = review;
        return (
          <Review key={id} title={title} comment={comment} score={score} />
        );
      })}
    </section>
  );
};

export default Reviews;  

//Code Result

{
abc
lorem ipsum
1
},

{
abcd
lorem ipsum 
5 
},

{
bdg
lorem ipsum
3
},

{
def
lorem ipsum
3
},

{
efg ( book title) 
lorem ipsum ( book review )
5 (rate) 
},

CodePudding user response：

You were sorting by rate first, then sorting alphabetically, so you were getting the items in alphabetical order, then by rank if two items have the same alphabetical order.

To sort that alphabetical list by rank, we do this:

 let newerSorted = [...newSorted].sort((a, b) => {
    return b.score - a.score;
  });

So the list is now sorted by rank & items with the same rank are sorted alphabetically.

Working Example:

const Reviews = ({ books, initialData }) => {
  const combinedBooks = initialData.concat(books);

  //   sort by rate
  let sorted = combinedBooks.sort((a, b) => {
    return b.score - a.score;
  });
  

  //   sort by alphabetical order
    let newSorted = sorted.sort(function (a, b) {
      let fa = a.title.toLowerCase(),
        fb = b.title.toLowerCase();

      if (fa < fb) {
        return -1;
      }
      if (fa > fb) {
        return 1;
      }
      return 0;
    });
    
    let newerSorted = [...newSorted].sort((a, b) => {
    return b.score - a.score;
  });

    
    const Review = (props) => {
        return(
        <li key={props.key}>{props.title} - {props.score}</li>
        );
    }

  return (
  <div>
    <section style={{ border: "3px solid green" }}>
      <p>Sorted alphabetically, then by rank</p>
      {newSorted.map((review) => {
        const { id, title, comment, score } = review;
        return (
          <Review key={id} title={title} comment={comment} score={score} />
        );
      })}
    </section>
    
    <section style={{ border: "3px solid green" }}>
      <p>Sorted by rank, then alphabetically</p>
      {newerSorted.map((review) => {
        const { id, title, comment, score } = review;
        return (
          <Review key={id} title={title} comment={comment} score={score} />
        );
      })}
    </section>
    </div>
  );
};
