npm version npm downloads Build Status Code Coverage

A function that takes a search term, things to search, and some configuration options and returns the things to search in the most logical order.

Usage:

$ npm install -S az-search-sorter
var search = require('az-search-sorter'); // available as a global in other environments as azSearchSorter

// example from a test:
const results = search('hi', ['hello', 'hi', 'Hannah Istanbul', 'secret and hidden', 'this', 'Heidi', 'hurt']);
expect(results).to.eql(['hi', 'secret and hidden', 'this', 'Hannah Istanbul', 'Heidi']);

// Note, also works with objects with the propToMatch

options

  • propToMatch - allows you to specify a property of the objects in the array to match
  • keepNonMatching - allows you to specify that you wish to keep the non-matching items (at the end of the result set)
