I know there are many questions regarding this type of sorting, I tried many time by referring to those questions and also by going through the re
topic in python too
My question is:
class Example(models.Model):
_inherit = 'sorting.example'
def unable_to_sort(self):
data_list = ['Abigail Peterson Jan 25','Paul Williams Feb 1','Anita Oliver Jan 24','Ernest Reed Jan 28']
self.update({'list_of_birthday_week': ','.join(r for r in data_list)})
I need to be sorted
according to the month
& date
like:
data_list = ['Anita Oliver Jan 24','Abigail Peterson Jan 25','Ernest Reed Jan 28','Paul Williams Feb 1']
is there any way to achieve this?
Use a regex to extract the date than use it as key of sorted
function.
import re
pattern = r'(\b(?:Jan|Feb|Mar|Apr|May|Jun|Jul|Aug|Sep|Oct|Nov|Dec)\D?(?:\d{1,2}\D?))'
sort_by_date = lambda x: datetime.strptime(re.search(pattern, x).group(0), '%b %d')
out = sorted(data_list, key=sort_by_date)
Output:
>>> out
['Anita Oliver Jan 24',
'Abigail Peterson Jan 25',
'Ernest Reed Jan 28',
'Paul Williams Feb 1']
Input:
>>> data_list
['Abigail Peterson Jan 25',
'Paul Williams Feb 1',
'Ernest Reed Jan 28',
'Anita Oliver Jan 24']
You need to extract the date part from the string, and then turn the date string into a comparable format. For the first task, regexen would be a decent choice here, and for the second part, datetime.strptime
would be appropriate:
>>> import re
>>> from datetime import *
>>>
>>> re.search('\w+ \d+$', 'Abigail Peterson Jan 25')
<re.Match object; span=(17, 23), match='Jan 25'>
>>> re.search('\w+ \d+$', 'Abigail Peterson Jan 25')[0]
'Jan 25'
>>>
>>> datetime.strptime('Jan 25', '%b %d')
datetime.datetime(1900, 1, 25, 0, 0)
>>> datetime.strptime(re.search('\w+ \d+$', 'Abigail Peterson Jan 25')[0], '%b %d')
datetime.datetime(1900, 1, 25, 0, 0)
Then turn that into a callback for list.sort
:
>>> data_list.sort(key=lambda i: datetime.strptime(re.search('\w+ \d+$', i)[0], '%b %d'))
['Anita Oliver Jan 24', 'Abigail Peterson Jan 25', 'Ernest Reed Jan 28', 'Paul Williams Feb 1']
You can also use split()
to accomplish that.
from datetime import datetime
...
def unable_to_sort(self):
data_list = ['Abigail Peterson Jan 25','Paul Williams Feb 1','Anita Oliver Jan 24','Ernest Reed Jan 28']
def get_date(data):
name, str_date = data.split(" ")[:-2], data.split(" ")[-2:]
month, day = str_date
return datetime.strptime(f"{month} {day}", "%b %d")
sorted_data_list = sorted(data_list, key=get_date)
self.update({'list_of_birthday_week': ','.join(r for r in sorted_data_list)})
You can use sorted function with keys datetime.strptime()
and date value.
from datetime import datetime
data_list = ['Anita Oliver Jan 24','Abigail Peterson Jan 25','Ernest Reed Jan 28','Paul Williams Feb 1']
k=[x.split() for x in data_list]
days_sorted = sorted(k, key=lambda x: (datetime.strptime(x[2],'%b'),x[3]))
[['Anita', 'Oliver', 'Jan', '24'],
['Abigail', 'Peterson', 'Jan', '25'],
['Ernest', 'Reed', 'Jan', '28'],
['Paul', 'Williams', 'Feb', '1']]
