Lodash _.sortedIndexBy() method is used to return the lowest index of the array where an element can be inserted and maintain its sorted order. In addition, it accepts iteratee which is invoked for value and each element of the array to compute their sort ranking. It uses the binary search.
Syntax:_.sortedIndexBy(array, value, [iteratee=_.identity]);Parameters:
Example 1: In this example, we are getting the index at which we can insert the given value.
JavaScript
// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");
// Original array
let objects = [{ 'x': 4 }, { 'x': 6 }];
// Use of _.sortedIndexBy()
// method
let index = _.sortedIndexBy(objects,
{ 'x': 5 }, function (o) { return o.x; });
// Printing the output
console.log(index);
Output:
1
Example 2: In this example, we are getting the index at which we can insert the given value.
JavaScript
// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");
// Original array
let objects = [{ 'x': 4 }, { 'x': 6 }];
// Use of _.sortedIndexBy()
// method
let index = _.sortedIndexBy(objects, { 'x': 9 }, 'x');
// Printing the output
console.log(index);
Output:
2
Example 3: In this example, we are getting the index at which we can insert the given value.
JavaScript
// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");
// Original array
let x = ['ajax', 'django', 'mongoDb',
'react', 'reactnative', 'yarn']
// Use of _.sortedIndexBy()
// method
let index = _.sortedIndexBy(x, 'luby', 5);
// Printing the output
console.log(index);
Output:
3
Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the library lodash to be installed.
