URLSearchParams.sort

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The URLSearchParams.sort() method sort all key/value pairs contained in this object in place and return undefined. The sort order is according to Unicode code points of the keys. This method uses a stable sorting algorithm (i.e. the relative order between key/value pairs with equal keys will be preserved).

Syntax

searchParams.sort();

Return value

Returns undefined.

Example

// Create a test URLSearchParams object 
var searchParams = new URLSearchParams("c=4&a=2&b=3&a=1"); 

// Sort the key/value pairs
searchParams.sort();

// Display the sorted query string
console.log(searchParams.toString());

The result is:

a=2&a=1&b=3&c=4
