Simple natural order sorting API for Python that just works
Project description
The natsort class in the naturalsort module is a very simple alternative to Python’s sorted() function that implements natural order sorting in Python.
Usage
Here’s an example of regular sorting vs. natural order sorting:
>>> # Import the sorted() alternative. >>> from natsort import natsort >>> >>> # This is plain old sorting (what we don't want). >>> sorted(['1', '5', '10', '50']) ['1', '10', '5', '50'] >>> >>> # This is version sorting (what we're after). >>> natsort(['1', '5', '10', '50']) ['1', '5', '10', '50'] >>> >>> # This covers a previously fixed bug. >>> natsort(['1.0', '1.5']) ['1.0', '1.5']
