How to sort/order a model's fields? - php

Question

I do $users = User::all(); This gives me a collection of User objects, where each object has fields something like:
[
{
"id":10,
"age":10,
"name":"John",
"bank_no":5454
},
{
"id":20,
"age":10,
"name":"Jane",
"bank_no":457
}
]
I want each User objects keys to be ordered alphabetically,
For ex:
[
{
"age":10,
"bank_no":5454
"id":10,
"name":"John"
},
{
"age":10,
"bank_no":457
"id":20,
"name":"Jane"
}
]
Now I know that this order comes the order in which the fields are defined in the migration file. But, changing the migration is not an option for me.
How can I do this efficiently?

Answer 1

Sorting by keys you can to do this :
$users = User::all();
foreach ($users as $key => $value) {
ksort($key);
}
Try this.

Answer 2

here try this, I'm not sure if this going to be the efficient solutions for a very long list of users but it should work regardless.
$json = '[
{
"id":10,
"age":10,
"name":"John",
"bank_no":5454
},
{
"id":20,
"age":10,
"name":"Jane",
"bank_no":457
}
]';
$arr = json_decode($json, true);
$res = [];
foreach($arr as $arrObj){
ksort($arrObj);
$res[] = $arrObj;
}
print_r($res);
Laravel sort function on collection see documentation here
$collection = collect([
'id' => 22345,
'first' => 'John',
'last' => 'Doe',
]);
$sorted = $collection->sortKeys();
$sorted->all();
