Sort a JSON array object using Javascript by value

Answer 1

I created these functions to order a json so that it would also work if there was another json inside it.

function orderJson(json) {
    let ordered = this.jsonToSortedArray(json);
    let result = this.arrayToStringJson(ordered);
    return JSON.parse(result);
}

function jsonToSortedArray(json) {
    let ordered = [];
    for (let i in json) {
        let value;
        if (json[i] instanceof Object) {
            value = jsonToSortedArray(json[i]);
        } else {
            value = json[i];
        }
        ordered.push([i, value]);
    }
    return ordered.sort();
}

function arrayToStringJson(ordered) {
    let result = '{'
    for (let i = 0; i < ordered.length; i++) {
        const key = '"' + ordered[i][0] + '"';
        let value;
        if (ordered[i][1] instanceof Array) {
            value = ':' + this.arrayToStringJson(ordered[i][1]) + ',';
        } else {
            value = ':"' + ordered[i][1] + '",';
        }
        result += key + value;
    }
    result = result.substring(0, result.length - 1);
    return result + '}';
}

If you want the json as a string do not use the function JSON.parse
