How to sort an array of objects by 'moment' date values?

Question

The array consists of objects like these

[
  {
    name: 'john',
    date: '21-07-2020',
    car: 'bmw'
  },
  {
    name: 'fred',
    date: '14-10-2020',
    car: 'tesla'
  }
]

I am trying to sort it in ascending order using Moment's isBefore function but it isn't working, using Moment library:

array.sort((a, b) => moment(a.date, 'DD-MM-YYYY').isBefore(moment(b.date, 'DD-MM-YYYY')))

Answer 1

Use Moment's diff

array.sort((a, b) => moment(a.date, 'DD-MM-YYYY').diff(moment(b.date, 'DD-MM-YYYY')))
