OWASP’s 2025 Top 10 introduces Software Supply Chain Failures as a new category, reflecting rising concern over dependency and build system risks.
sort-object-keys
Advanced tools
Returns a copy of an object with all keys sorted.
The second argument is optional and is used for ordering - to provide custom sorts. You can either pass an array containing ordered keys or a function to sort the keys (same signature as in Array.prototype.sort()).
const assert = require('assert');
const sortObject = require('sort-object-keys');
assert.equal(JSON.stringify({
c: 1,
b: 1,
d: 1,
a: 1,
}), JSON.stringify({
a: 1,
b: 1,
c: 1,
d: 1,
}));
assert.equal(JSON.stringify(sortObject({
c: 1,
b: 1,
d: 1,
a: 1,
}, ['b', 'a', 'd', 'c'])), JSON.stringify({
b: 1,
a: 1,
d: 1,
c: 1,
}));
function removeKeyAncCompareIndex(keyA, keyB){
var a = parseInt(keyA.slice(4));
var b = parseInt(keyB.slice(4));
return a - b;
}
assert.equal(JSON.stringify(sortObject({
"key-1": 1,
"key-3": 1,
"key-10": 1,
"key-2": 1,
}, removeKeyAncCompareIndex)), JSON.stringify({
"key-1": 1,
"key-2": 1,
"key-3": 1,
"key-10": 1,
}));
Lodash's sortBy function offers similar functionality for sorting collections based on one or several criteria. While it primarily focuses on array sorting, it can be adapted for object keys sorting. It differs from sort-object-keys as it is part of a larger utility library and not focused solely on object key sorting.
