URLSearchParams: sort() method
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since April 2018.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
The URLSearchParams.sort() method sorts all key/value
pairs contained in this object in place and returns undefined. Key/value pairs are sorted by the values of the UTF-16 code units of the keys. This method uses a stable sorting
algorithm (i.e., the relative order between key/value pairs with equal keys will be
preserved).
Syntax
js
sort()
Parameters
None.
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
js
// Create a test URLSearchParams object
const searchParams = new URLSearchParams("c=4&a=2&b=3&a=1");
// Sort the key/value pairs
searchParams.sort();
// Display the sorted query string
console.log(searchParams.toString());
The result is:
a=2&a=1&b=3&c=4
