sortByStars

Sort GitHub projects by star count.

Signature

function sortByStars(
  projects: ProjexProject[],
  order?: SortOrder
): ProjexProject[]

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
projects	ProjexProject[]	-	Array of projects to sort
order	SortOrder	'desc'	Sort order: 'asc' or 'desc'

Returns

ProjexProject[] - Sorted array of projects (new array, does not mutate input)

Types

type SortOrder = 'asc' | 'desc'

Behavior

• Returns empty array if projects is empty
• Only sorts GitHub projects by stars
• Non-GitHub projects and projects with 0 stars are placed at the end (for 'desc') or beginning (for 'asc')

Example

import { sortByStars } from '@manningworks/projex'

// Most starred first (default)
const popularFirst = sortByStars(projects)

// Least starred first
const leastPopularFirst = sortByStars(projects, 'asc')

Common Usage

Show most popular GitHub projects:

const popularProjects = sortByStars(projects, 'desc').slice(0, 5)

Note

This function only considers GitHub projects. Non-GitHub projects are always placed at the end/beginning regardless of their stats.
