Sort JavaScript object by value

Question

I want rearrange the key value pair in a javascript object based on the value.

  var in = {
      'b': 'asdsad',
      'm': [{
          '0': 'asdsad'
      }, {
          '1': 'masdas'
      }, {
          '4': 'dsfdsfsdf'
      }],
      'c': 'masdas',
      'a': [{
          'b': 'asdsad'
      }, {
          'c': 'masdas'
      }, {
          'k': 'dsfdsfsdf'
      }],
      'z': 'asdasdads'
  }

I want to rearrange the object so that I will have the arrays as the last key value pairs.

Expected output

var out = {
    'b': 'asdsad',
    'c': 'masdas',
    'z': 'asdasdads',
    'm': [{
        '0': 'asdsad'
    }, {
        '1': 'masdas'
    }, {
        '4': 'dsfdsfsdf'
    }],
    'a': [{
        'b': 'asdsad'
    }, {
        'c': 'masdas'
    }, {
        'k': 'dsfdsfsdf'
    }]
}

Answer 1

According to the JavaScript specification's definition of Object:

It is an unordered collection of properties each of which contains a primitive value, object, or function. A function stored in a property of an object is called a method.

If you want to access the keys in an ordered fashion, you should use a structure that supports ordering, like an Array.
