Reordering Array Elements in JavaScript

When working with arrays in JavaScript, you may sometimes find yourself in a situation where you need to reorder the keys of an array of objects based on the order specified in another array. This guide presents a clear approach to solving this problem using modern ES6 features.

The Problem Statement

Imagine you have an array of objects representing data (e.g., records from a database) like this:

Correspondingly, you have another array jsonData that defines the desired order of the keys:

Your goal is to rearrange the properties in data based on the order specified in jsonData. An initial attempt might involve using the sort() method, but it doesn't apply directly to object key ordering.

The Solution

To effectively reorder the objects in data, we can create a function called sortObject that will take an object and reorder its keys based on jsonData. Below, we'll break down the solution into clear sections.

Step 1: Create a Helper Function

First, we need a helper function to transform the object's entries back into the desired order based on the keys in jsonData.

Step 2: Implement the Sorting Function

Next, define the sortObject function, which will sort the object's keys:

Step 3: Map the Array

Now it's time to apply this sorting function to each object in the data array. This is done using the map() method:

Conclusion

By following the steps outlined above, you have learned how to reorder the properties in an array of objects based on a specified order defined in another array. This solution utilizes modern JavaScript features for clarity and efficiency, making your data manipulation tasks simpler and more reliable.

Now, you can confidently tackle similar tasks involving data reordering in your JavaScript applications!
