I was trying to sort an array of custom objects but for some reason, the code that worked a few weeks back won't work anymore. It is supposed to check if $0 and $1 have the same date, and if they do, it is supposed to sort the array by id, but currently it won't sort correctly and when I print the array, I get the following output:
11-07-2017 : 1
11-07-2017 : 10
11-07-2017 : 11
11-07-2017 : 12
11-07-2017 : 13
11-07-2017 : 14
11-07-2017 : 15
11-07-2017 : 16
11-07-2017 : 17
11-07-2017 : 18
11-07-2017 : 19
11-07-2017 : 2
11-07-2017 : 20
11-07-2017 : 3
11-07-2017 : 4
11-07-2017 : 5
11-07-2017 : 7
11-07-2017 : 8
11-07-2017 : 9
11-08-2017 : 1
11-08-2017 : 2
11-09-2017 : 1
11-09-2017 : 2
As can be seen above, the dates that only have a few entries sort correctly, but the dates with more entries (11-07-17) don't.
Below is my code:
Model for the Array:
struct BalanceUser {
var id = ""
var name = ""
var date = ""
}
Current Sorting Code:
self.sortedTableArray.sort(by: {
if $0.date != $1.date {
return $0.date < $1.date
} else {
return $0.id < $1.id
}
})
Firebase Code (As Requested):
ref.child("Admin").child("Balances").observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (snapshot) in
let value = snapshot.value as? NSDictionary
if value!.count > 1 {
let specificValues = value?.allKeys
for balanceUser in specificValues! {
var user = BalanceUser()
user.date = balanceUser as! String
if balanceUser as? String != "balance" {
var i = 0
var counter = 0
while i < 101 {
self.ref.child("Admin")
.child("Balances")
.child(balanceUser as! String)
.child(String(i))
.observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (snapshot) in
let nameValue = snapshot.value as? NSDictionary
if nameValue != nil {
user.id = counter
var j = 0
while j < (nameValue?.count)! {
let item = nameValue?.allKeys[j] as? String
var aItem = ""
if let item = nameValue?.allValues[j] as? String {
aItem = item
} else if let item = nameValue?.allValues[j] as? NSNumber {
aItem = String(describing: item)
} else if let item = nameValue?.allValues[j] as? Int {
aItem = String(describing: item)
}
if item == "name" {
user.name = aItem
} else if item == "money" {
user.money = aItem
} else if item == "balance" {
user.balance = aItem
} else if item == "status" {
user.status = aItem
}
j += 1
}
let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "MM-dd-yyyy"
if user.date.components(separatedBy: "-")[0] == dateFormatter.string(from: Date()).components(separatedBy: "-")[0] {
self.sortedTableArray.append(user)
self.sortedTableArray.sort(by: { (object1, object2) -> Bool in
if object1.date == object2.date {
return object1.id < object2.id
} else {
return object1.date < object2.date
}
})
}
self.tableArray.append(user)
self.tableArray.sort(by: { (object1, object2) -> Bool in
if object1.date == object2.date && object1.year == object2.year {
return object2.id > object1.id
} else {
return object1.date < object2.date || object1.year < object2.year
}
})
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
counter += 1
}) { (error) in
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
i += 1
}
}
}
} else {
self.view.makeToast(message: "No Users Found in Database")
}
}) { (error) in
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
