Multi-dimensional Array & Object Sorting in PHP
===================================================

[](#multi-dimensional-array--object-sorting-in-php)

Sort a multidimensional `array` or `object` by `String` or `integer` or both types.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the package on your php application.

```
composer require arifulhb/php-algorithms

```

Sort by Array
-------------

[](#sort-by-array)

For example, if you have an array, and you want to sort by name or by price or both, you can use this package to sort.

```
 $items = [
    [
        'name' => 'computer',
        'price' => 4,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'tv',
        'price' => 9,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'apple',
        'price' => 1,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'airpod',
        'price' => 1,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'airtag',
        'price' => 3,
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'shampoo',
        'price' => 5,
    ]
];

```

### How to

[](#how-to)

```
// create a configuration object specifying integer and string field accordingly.
$config = new SortConfiguration('price', 'name');

// create sort object with the configuration
$sortArray = new SortArray($config);

// sort the array
$result = $sortArray->sort($products);

```

Sort by Object
--------------

[](#sort-by-object)

Same as sort by array, but here you may have an array of object to sort. For example,

```
$arrayOfObjects = [
    new Product('computer', 4),
    new Product('tv', 9),
    new Product('apple', 1),
    new Product('airpod', 1),
    new Product('airtag', 3),
    new Product('shampoo', 5)
];

```

### How to

[](#how-to-1)

```
// create a configuration object specifying integer and string field accordingly.
$config = new SortConfiguration('price', 'name');

// create sort object with the configuration
$sortObject = new SortObject($config);

// sort the array
$result = $sortObject->sort($products);

```

Development
-----------

[](#development)

To run the test cases,

```
composer run-script tests

```
