moin moin,

I'm trying to sort some data that is currently in json being imported into
a dict.

It's essentially bibliography information, but without a unique ID.

I mostly want to sort on publication date, but also want to group by
publication. There could be multiple publications on the same date.

Currently using a json format like:

{
 "pubs": [
  {
   "date": 20190222
   "title": "a title"
   "url": "https://some.domain/page.html";
  },
  {
   "date": 20190221
   "title": "another title"
   "url": "https://some.other.domain/page.html";
  }
 ]
}

Format can change if that helps.

I want to be able to display items in order. Mostly chronological, but
also by other details.

Any suggestions for how to sort them for display?

A nice, but not required, feature would be sorting them for saving to disk
as well.

ciao,

der.hans
