Use the sortRange method to sort a range with given order, as shown in the following code.
Users can also use context menu -> sort or filter to sort the data.
The priority of data type is: boolean > string > number, eg: TRUE > '4' > 8.
Customize sorting
User can use the callback function to define the customized compare method to sort.
The following code shows use localCompare to sort.
Sort By Cell Color
User can sort cell by cell color according special sort info. This feature supports the solid fill, pattern fill, gradient fill.
The following code shows use backColor to sort by cell color.
Sort by Font Color
User can sort cell by font color according the special sort info. This feature only supports solid fill.
User can define the callback function to used when the RangeSorting events raised.
Group sort
You can set the whether keep the data grouped by using the groupSort options. The GroupSort provides the following types:
flat: Sort ignore the group.
group: Move the group with the sort, but don't sort inner the group
child: Only sort inner the group.
full: Move the group with the sort, and sort inner the group
The following code shows use groupSort option.
User can define the groupSort option to used when the RangeSorting events raised.
Sort ignore hidden
You can set the whether ignore the hidden values when sorting.
When ignoreHidden set to true, spread will skip and don't move the hidden value.
When ignoreHidden set to false, spread will compare and move the hidden value.
When groupSort set to group/child/full, SpreadJS will move the hidden value and move the row/column visibility to keep value hidden.
The following code shows use ignoreHidden option.
User can define the ignoreHidden option to used when the RangeSorting events raised.
By default, if the sort ranges contains group, SpreadJS will sort the data with option group sort. Otherwise, it will use flat sort and ignore hidden.
