基于此答案的多维排序方法：
更新：这是一个“优化”版本。它做了更多的预处理，并预先为每个排序选项创建了一个比较函数。它可能需要更多内存（因为它为每个排序选项存储一个函数，但它应该执行得更好一些，因为它不必在比较期间确定正确的设置。不过我还没有做任何分析。
var sort_by;
(function() {
// utility functions
var default_cmp = function(a, b) {
if (a == b) return 0;
return a < b ? -1 : 1;
},
getCmpFunc = function(primer, reverse) {
var dfc = default_cmp, // closer in scope
cmp = default_cmp;
if (primer) {
cmp = function(a, b) {
return dfc(primer(a), primer(b));
};
}
if (reverse) {
return function(a, b) {
return -1 * cmp(a, b);
};
}
return cmp;
};
// actual implementation
sort_by = function() {
var fields = [],
n_fields = arguments.length,
field, name, reverse, cmp;
// preprocess sorting options
for (var i = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
field = arguments[i];
if (typeof field === 'string') {
name = field;
cmp = default_cmp;
}
else {
name = field.name;
cmp = getCmpFunc(field.primer, field.reverse);
}
fields.push({
name: name,
cmp: cmp
});
}
// final comparison function
return function(A, B) {
var a, b, name, result;
for (var i = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
result = 0;
field = fields[i];
name = field.name;
result = field.cmp(A[name], B[name]);
if (result !== 0) break;
}
return result;
}
}
}());
用法示例：
homes.sort(sort_by('city', {name:'price', primer: parseInt, reverse: true}));
演示
原函数：
var sort_by = function() {
var fields = [].slice.call(arguments),
n_fields = fields.length;
return function(A,B) {
var a, b, field, key, primer, reverse, result, i;
for(i = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
result = 0;
field = fields[i];
key = typeof field === 'string' ? field : field.name;
a = A[key];
b = B[key];
if (typeof field.primer !== 'undefined'){
a = field.primer(a);
b = field.primer(b);
}
reverse = (field.reverse) ? -1 : 1;
if (a<b) result = reverse * -1;
if (a>b) result = reverse * 1;
if(result !== 0) break;
}
return result;
}
};
