Document sorting in SSJS without using treemap

Hi All,

I want to sort a collection of documents by a particular fields name in SSJS without using treemap. As treemap uses key value n if i pass the fieldname as the key value and there more than one documents by that key value(consider a date field as the key so if there more than one document with the same date) then treemap will consier only the first document so unable to use treepmap..

Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi,

make a 2-dimensional array and put the key there as the first item and document position/index in collection as the second item. Then just sort that array by the key.

Re: Document sorting in SSJS without using treemap

why not simply create a view and select ascending / descending in the sort options on a column ?

It will offer much better performance than doing it manually with SSJS
