如何在magento中按库存状态对产品集合进行排序

Question

I want to sort product collection on category page so that the in stock products shall appear before out of stock products. All the out of stock products will be displayed after the in stock products. I have already rewritten the Mage_Product_Block_List block.

You can use catalog_product_collection_load_before event.   
And in the observer:

public function modifyProductCollection(Varien_Event_Observer $observer) {
    //catalog_product_collection_load_before
    $collection = $observer->getCollection();

    $collection->getSelect()->joinLeft(
                array('_inventory_table' => $collection->getTable('cataloginventory/stock_item')),
                "_inventory_table.product_id = e.entity_id",
                array('is_in_stock')
            )
            ->order('is_in_stock DESC')
            ->order('created_at DESC');
}
