JSON array sorting OpenWhisk action service

• 

  Node-red flow

Inspiration

It was inspired by the necessity of dealing with large amounts of JSON data.

What it does

It sorts JSON objects in a provided array by a primary and/or a secondary property. By providing the data array and some additional parameters in the form of a JSON object, the algorithm will sort the objects within the array according to the user's preferences. It can sort numerically or in alphabetical order, ascending or descending and it can even sort by an optional secondary parameter.

Usage example can be found within the provided links.

How I built it

With my own ten fingers. And with a keyboard. And a mouse occasionally.

Challenges I ran into

Some challenge in having to learn the necessary technology of OpenWhisk, but nothing too challenging.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

The completion of this project, I guess.

What I learned

More experience with docker, node-red and Javascript and OpenWhisk as well as the hackathon process.

What's next for JSON array sorting OpenWhisk action service

Refactor the code for more efficient execution.
