Data Sorting

The spreadsheet provides flexibility and control when it comes to sorting, enabling developers to:

Create a sorting handler method to customize the sorting behavior.
Use the onbeforesort event to intercept, change, or cancel sorting results for the user.

You can sort the data grid using the context menu, double-clicking the column header, or invoking the orderBy method.

What's new with Version 13

Multi column sorting: orderBy([{ column, direction }, ...]) sorts by several levels; ties on one level resolve on the next, each level with its own direction. One undoable operation, replayed on connected users

Shift + double click: adds the column as the next sorting level, or toggles its direction when it already participates. A plain double click resets the sorting to that single column, and every level shows its own arrow

Validation: an out of range column returns false

Performance: sorting large columns is 84 to 270 times faster than in version 12

Documentation

Methods

Call spreadsheet sorting programmatically using the following methods.

Method	Description
`orderBy`	Sort the data grid by a specific column. Returns `false` for an out of range column. @param {number} columnNumber - Column index (0-based) @param {boolean} direction - false (ascending), true (descending) `orderBy(columnNumber: Number, direction: Boolean) : void`
`orderBy`	Sort by several levels: ties on one level resolve on the next, each level with its own direction. @param {object[]} levels - `[{ column: Number, direction: Boolean }, ...]` `orderBy(levels: Object[]) : void`

Events

The onbeforesort event can be used to intercept, change, or cancel the sorting operation.

Event	Description
`onbeforesort`	`onbeforesort(worksheet: Object, column: Number, direction: Number, newValue: Array) : Array`
`onsort`	`onsort(worksheet: Object, column: Number, direction: Number, newValue: Array) : void`

Initial Settings

The following properties help to define the sorting behavior.

Property	Description
`sorting`	Define a custom sorting handler. `sorting(direction: Boolean) : function`
`columnSorting`	Allow the user to sort the spreadsheet by columns. `Default: true`
`columnSortingOnDblClick`	Double-click the header to sort columns. Shift + double-click adds the column as the next sorting level, or toggles its direction. `Default: true`

Native sorting handler

The following code is the default sorting method. You can customize the function to create different sorting results.
