sort-object

sort-object brings in many dependencies that are no longer needed for more modern Node versions. It can typically be replaced with platform-provided APIs. When you need more functionality, there are other alternatives.

Alternatives

JS APIs with Object.keys() + Object.sort()

For simple cases, you can use Object.keys() and Array.prototype.sort() to sort an object's keys.

Object.keys(object)
  .sort()
  .reduce((obj, key) => {
    obj[key] = object[key];
    return obj;
  }, {});

sort-object-keys

sort-object-keys is a 0 dependency package that can replace the functionality of sort-object. This is useful for more complex cases, such as if you have a custom sort for your object keys.

sortobject

sortobject is a 0 dependency package that can replace the functionality of sort-object. This library should be used over sort-object-keys if you need to deeply sort nested objects.
