# Data grouping tool
There is likely multiple libraries to do this same thing, I did this mostly for fun, and since I need to customize sorting to certain output type very often.
✅ Data output and input is expected to be JSON
✅ Tool will add group and items object to each group
```JS
{
group: "Kumpula",
items: [
[
{
group: "sports",
items: [
{
"......":"....."
},
],
},
],
],
}
```
## Example using https://open-api.myhelsinki.fi/
## How to use
1. Make the sortable data available in single level (Node.JS array.map() is handy for this
2. Decide grouping criteria
```js
const { newSet } = require("./helpers/grouping");
const { httpP } = require("./helpers/httpabstract");
main()
async function main () {
var data = await httpP('http://open-api.myhelsinki.fi/v2/places/').catch((error) => {
console.log(error)
})
var places = JSON.parse(data)
// make sortable data "flat"
places.data.map(place => {
//console.log(place)
place.postal = place.location.address.postal_code
place.neighbourhood = place.location.address.neighbourhood
place.tag = place.tags[0].name
})
// Additional sort for post number
var sortedSet = newSet(places.data, ['postal','neighbourhood','tag']).sort((a,b) => {
if (a.group < b.group) {
return -1
} else {
return 1
}
})
console.log(sortedSet)
}
```
