NSSortDescriptor:Array,Set和Core Data中排序的实现

NSSortDescriptor 是重要的排序类, 可以非常方便滴对一些集合类进行排序, 在core data中使用也非常的广泛.

初始化方法

+ (instancetype)sortDescriptorWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending NS_AVAILABLE(10_6, 4_0);
+ (instancetype)sortDescriptorWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending selector:(SEL)selector NS_AVAILABLE(10_6, 4_0);<pre name="code" class="objc">+ (instancetype)sortDescriptorWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending comparator:(NSComparator)cmptr NS_AVAILABLE(10_6, 4_0);

- (instancetype)initWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending;- (instancetype)initWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending selector:(SEL)selector;

- (instancetype)initWithKey:(NSString *)key ascending:(BOOL)ascending comparator:(NSComparator)cmptr NS_AVAILABLE(10_6, 4_0);

三个参数是:

Key: 排序的key 或者 keyPath

ascending: YES 升序 NO 降序

比较参数: selector 或者 NSComparator

selector 的例子 说明: selector指定了一个key属性的类型实现的方法,传进来一个值和本身(self)对比,返回一个NSComparisonResult结果

- (NSComparisonResult)localizedCompare:(NSString *)aString

typedef NSComparisonResult (^NSComparator)(id obj1, id obj2)是个block , 传入两个对象, 返回一个NSComparisonResult结果

例子,有一个书类,有三个属性

@interface Book : NSObject

@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *name;
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *author;
@property (nonatomic, assign) float price;

@end

初始化数据

    Book *book = [[Book alloc] init];
    [book setValue:@"iOS开发" forKey:@"name"];
    [book setValue:@"张三" forKey:@"author"];
    [book setValue:@99.0 forKey:@"price"];
    
    Book *book2 = [[Book alloc] init];
    [book2 setValue:@"Android开发" forKey:@"name"];
    [book2 setValue:@"李四" forKey:@"author"];
    [book2 setValue:@79.0 forKey:@"price"];
    
    Book *book3 = [[Book alloc] init];
    [book3 setValue:@"PHP开发" forKey:@"name"];
    [book3 setValue:@"王五" forKey:@"author"];
    [book3 setValue:@59.0 forKey:@"price"];

    Book *book4 = [[Book alloc] init];
    [book4 setValue:@"HTML开发" forKey:@"name"];
    [book4 setValue:@"赵六" forKey:@"author"];
    [book4 setValue:@99.0 forKey:@"price"];
    
    _bookArray = @[book, book2, book3, book4];

排序

    //价格降序排列: 规则就是---是否降序 加上 comparator比较返回的结果和比较的值是一致的 的与否 === 确定最后是降序还是升序
    //降序的时候: 后面如果obj1 > obj2 就返回 NSOrderedDescending 降序
    //降序的时候: 后面如果obj1 > obj2 就返回 NSOrderedAscending  升序
    //升序的时候: 后面如果obj1 > obj2 就返回 NSOrderedAscending  升序
    //升序的时候: 后面如果obj1 > obj2 就返回 NSOrderedDescending 降序
    NSSortDescriptor *priceSort = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"price" ascending:NO comparator:^NSComparisonResult(id obj1, id obj2) {
        float value1 = [obj1 floatValue];
        float value2 = [obj2 floatValue];
        if (value1 == value2) {
            return NSOrderedSame;
        } else if (value1 > value2) { //value1比value2大则
            return NSOrderedDescending;
        } else {
            return NSOrderedAscending;
        }
    }];
    //书名升序排列
    NSSortDescriptor *nameSort = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"name" ascending:YES selector:@selector(localizedStandardCompare:)];
    
    //两者组合,共同组成排序的结果
    NSArray *newArray = [_bookArray sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:@[priceSort,nameSort]];
    NSLog(@"_bookArray = %@",newArray); //book4, book, book2, book3
