Well, if you want some interactive sorting, you have to do it  in
javascript; the native autoindex module is able to output json/jsonp,
so a simple js script may be used to implement any desired behaviour.


No, I want *other* people to sort their indices by date where 
appropriate.  It's more likely to happen if it's easy - no plugin, no 
scripting.


Having just done my monthly check for software updates on 421 projects I 
have a reason.  Many are in text sorted directory listings and would 
benefit from date ordering.

Well, this is way less trivial than simply add a flag to reverse sort
order. It belongs indeed to fancyindex, that already does that:

fancyindex_default_sort

Syntax: fancyindex_default_sort [name | size | date | name_desc |
size_desc | date_desc]

Though you need to compile your own nginx to get that working (and
follow the module installation instructions :-).

The latest version is 2/3 of the way down and if I was looking for an 
update then 1.13.10 would not be next to the current 1.13.9.

Just in case you'll get back to XML/XSLT, here's a simple configuration to
sort the files:

location / {
autoindex on;
autoindex_format xml;
xslt_stylesheet conf/sort.xslt;
root html;
}


sort.xslt:

I'm not comfortable with XML/XSLT, so I just made a small hack to the
original autoindex that is quite enough for me (=works and made my
users happy :).

If there is some interest I can post my patch to the apropriate list
(nginx devel, if I recall correctly :).

Luciano.

Re: Nginx Directory Autoindex

[Miguel C]

Yeah I was looking in github and there's no update for a year now... which
tbh might be about the same time I last used it :D

there's a default sorting option for name/data etc
https://github.com/aperezdc/ngx-fancyindex#fancyindex-default-sort

I do see a default_sort as a directive but not for "ascending" "descending"
(doesn't since supper hard to implement in the code though, but I'm not a C
expert

Vladimir Homutov just suggested a different approach with the autoindex
module and xslt that seems to serve you're need, and that way there's no
need to install a 3rd party moduel :)

Hello Luciano,

you can set 
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_autoindex_module.html#autoindex_format
to XML and combine with http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_xslt_module.html
to get any listing that you desire.

I don't find fancyindex module in 1.13.9. It seems that some of its
features are now in autoindex. It is probably trivial to add an option
to the configuration, something like "autoindex_reverse_sort" (set to
off by default), though I don'nt know if it would be usefull for other
nginx users...

Thanks for your answer,

Luciano.

I'm unsure if thats possible without 3rd party module...

I've used fancyindex before when I wanted sorting.

Nginx Directory Autoindex

[Luciano Mannucci]

Hello all,

I have a directory served by nginx via autoindex (That works perfectly
as documented :). I need to show the content in reverse order (ls -r),
is there any rather simple method?

Thanks in advance,

Luciano.
