- Check the structure of your JSON by http://www.jsoneditoronline.org/
- Identify the Array you want to display. Arrays are collections of other Arrays or Objects (which are in fact converted to arrays)
- Write twig-code to display the array: Just display it now, we add the sorting later…). This should be something like this (unknown JSONArrayName?):
{% for item in JSONArrayName %} fieldA: {{item.fieldA}} / fieldB: {{item.fieldB}} / fieldC: {{item.fieldC}}
{% endfor %} - Now we add the sorting:
{% for item in JSONArray | sortbyjsonfield("fieldA##fieldB,desc##fieldC,,num") %} fieldA: {{item.fieldA}} / fieldB: {{item.fieldB}} / fieldC: {{item.fieldC}}
{% endfor %} - Syntax:
- sortbyjsonfield(STRING) with a special string like “fieldname” (sort field as string from A to Z)
- “fieldname,desc” (sort field as string from Z to A)
- “fieldname,,num” (sort field as number from -infinity to infinity)
- “fieldname,desc,num” (sort field as number from infinity to -infinity)
- “fieldname,,date” and “fieldname,desc,date” (sort field as date)
“,” and “##” are delimiters (if those are part of the fieldname this won’t work – contact developer in this case to make the delimiter dynamic).
