description

Syntax

ARRAY<T> array_sortby(ARRAY<T> src,Array<T> key)
ARRAY<T> array_sortby(lambda,array....)

First, arrange the key column in ascending order, and then return the corresponding column of the src column sorted in this order as the result; Returns NULL if the input array src is NULL. If the input array key is NULL, the order in which src is returned remains unchanged. If the input array key element contains NULL, the output sorted array will place NULL first.

example

mysql [test]>select array_sortby(['a','b','c'],[3,2,1]);
+----------------------------------------------------+
| array_sortby(ARRAY('a', 'b', 'c'), ARRAY(3, 2, 1)) |
+----------------------------------------------------+
| ['c', 'b', 'a'] |
+----------------------------------------------------+

mysql [test]>select array_sortby([1,2,3,4,5],[10,5,1,20,80]);
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
| array_sortby(ARRAY(1, 2, 3, 4, 5), ARRAY(10, 5, 1, 20, 80)) |
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
| [3, 2, 1, 4, 5] |
+-------------------------------------------------------------+

mysql [test]>select *,array_sortby(c_array1,c_array2) from test_array_sortby order by id;
+------+-----------------+-------------------------+--------------------------------------+
| id | c_array1 | c_array2 | array_sortby(`c_array1`, `c_array2`) |
