byDate sortable
Description
The byDate sortable, as the name explain, is the sortable to sort the date type.
API side it is very likely that there is no standard method to return dates in JSON format, therefore the byDate function does not accept only the Data type, but accepts a datable, that is a set of types that can (more or less easily) to be traceable to a Date. If this were not enough, it is still possible to specify a customParser in the options of the byDate function
Example
Standard example
//js or ts file
import { byDate } from 'sort-es'
const unsorted: Date[] = []; //[today, tomorrow, yesterday];
const sorted = unsorted.sort(byDate());
console.log(sorted); //(3) [yesterday, today, tomorrow];
Sort descending
//js or ts file
import { byDate } from 'sort-es'
const unsorted: Date[] = []; //[today, tomorrow, yesterday];
const sorted = unsorted.sort(byDate({desc : true}));
console.log(sorted); //(3) [tomorrow, today, yesterday];
Using a custom parser
You can use a custom function to convert your datable item to a date
//js or ts file
import { byDate } from 'sort-es'
import { parseISO } from "date-fns";
const unsorted = [
"Sun Mar 22 2020 16:10:02 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)", //today
"Sun Mar 23 2020 16:10:02 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)", //tomorrow
"Sun Mar 21 2020 16:10:02 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)" //yesterday
];
const sorted = unsorted.sort(byDate({
customParser: item => parseISO(item)
}));
console.log(sorted); //(3) [yesterday, today, tomorrow];
