How to add a 'Sort By' dropdown to sort a list in Vuejs?

I've got a pretty straight forward setup.
Trying to display a list of users with a search box at the top (for actively filtering the search results).
If I use just that the page works and displays fine.
I'm trying to add in an additional dropdown to pick an attribute to sort by (and hopefully add in another dropdown to indicate ascending/descending once I get the first dropdown working).
My current code (with a non-working version of the sort) looks like this:
<div id="app">
<section class="mb-3">
<div class="container">
<h2>Person Search</h2>
<h3>
<small class="text-muted">Filter people based on the name, location or job</small>
</h3>
<h3>
<small class="text-muted">
Examples: “Jane Doe”, “ABC Building”, or “Math”
</small>
</h3>
<input type="text" class="form-control" v-model="search_term" placeholder="Begin typing to filter by name, location or job...">
<!-- THIS WOULD CAUSE THE LIST TO FILTER ALPHABETICALLY BY SELECTED ATTRIBUTE -->
<select id="sortFilterSelect" name="sort_filter" v-model="sort_filter">
<option value="">Sort By...</option>
<option value="first_name">First Name</option>
<option value="last_name">Last Name</option>
</select>
</div>
</section>
<section>
<div class="container">
<h3>People List : ([[ people_count ]] People)</h3>
<!-- I ADDED 'sortedPeople' HERE - WHICH BROKE IT -->
<div v-for="person in filteredPeople | sortedPeople">
<div class="card mb-4" :class="person.has_summative_past_due ? 'alert-warning' : ''">
<div class="card-body row" >
<div class="col">
<h4 class="card-title" v-bind:person='person.full_name'><a v-bind:href="'{% url 'commonground:index' %}' + 'users/' + person.id">[[ person.full_name ]]</a></h4>
<p v-if="person.active_summative" class="card-text">
Active Summative Due Date: [[ person.active_summative.due_date ]]
<span v-show="!person.active_summative.past_due" v-bind:past_due='person.active_summative.past_due' class="badge badge-success">[[ person.active_summative.due_date_status ]]</span>
<span v-show="person.active_summative.past_due" class="badge badge-danger">[[ person.active_summative.due_date_status ]]</span>
<ul class="list-group list-group-flush">
<li class="list-group-item justify-content-between align-items-center" v-for="summary in person.summative_evaluations_summary">
<span class="badge badge-secondary badge-pill">[[summary.evaluation_type__count]]</span> [[ summary.evaluation_type__name ]]
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p v-if="!person.active_summative" class="card-text">
No Active Unlocked Summatives
</p>
<a v-if="person.active_summative" :href="person.active_summative.absolute_url" class="btn btn-primary"><i class="far fa-edit"></i> View / Edit Active Summative</a>
</div>
<div class="col-auto float-right text-right">
<p class="h5">
[[ person.base_location ]]
<div v-if="person.multiple_locations" class="small text-muted"><i class="fal fa-info-circle"></i> User has multiple locations</div>
</p>
<p class="h5">

<div v-if="person.multiple_jobs" class="small text-muted"> <i class="fal fa-info-circle"></i> User has multiple jobs</div>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>

<!-- END OF VUE -->
</div>
The actual Vue code looks like this:
<script>
const app = new Vue({
delimiters: ['[[', ']]'],
el: '#app',
data: {
people: [],
people_count: 0,
search_term: "",
sort_filter: "",
},
computed: {
filteredPeople:function()
{
var search = this.search_term.toLowerCase();
return this.people.filter(function(person){
return Object.values(person).some( val => String(val).toLowerCase().includes(search))
})
},
sortedPeople:function()
{
var sort_filter = this.sort_filter.toLowerCase();
console.log('triggered')
return this.people.filter(function(person){
return Object.values(person).some( val => String(val).toLowerCase().includes(sort_filter))
})
},
},
async created () {
var response = await fetch("{% url 'user-list' %}");
this.people = await response.json();
this.people_count = await this.people.length
}
})
</script>
Fairly new to Vue, but I am building this to learn. All help is appreciated!

Check out the simple sample I made: Link
filteredPeople() {
return this.people.filter(
(person) =>
person.firstname
.toLowerCase()
.includes(this.search.toLowerCase().trim()) ||
person.lastname
.toLowerCase()
.includes(this.search.toLowerCase().trim())
);
},
sortedPeople() {
return this.filteredPeople.sort((a, b) =>
a[this.sortby].localeCompare(b[this.sortby])
);
},
Added asc/dec order: Link
sortedPeople() {
return this.filteredPeople.sort((a, b) =>
(this.sort == 'asc') ? a[this.sortby].localeCompare(b[this.sortby]) : b[this.sortby].localeCompare(a[this.sortby])
);
},

get data from html page using javascript

I have some HTML - pretty nasty, but not mine and so I don't have control over it. I need to extract some data from the form, the First name value (ABDIGANI) and the Surname value (AHMED). What is the best way to do this with javascript?
<div class="voffset3"></div>
<div class="container well panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
First name
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5">
ABDIGANI
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
Surname
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5">
AHMED
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

You could consider HTML in most cases well structured. Try this the following snippet.
Edit: did a change due to the first comment.
Edit: if you have more than one rows, you should use
document.querySelectorAll('.container > .panel-body > .row');
and fetch the pairs for each found element as below.
const markers = ['First name', 'Surname'];
const mRx = [new RegExp(markers[0]), new RegExp(markers[1])];
function findMarker(element) {
for(let i = 0; i < mRx.length; i++) {
if(element.innerHTML.match(mRx[i])) {
return markers[i];
}
}
return null;
}
function findValue(el) {
return el.parentElement.querySelector('.form-group > div').innerHTML.trim();
}
const pairs = [... document.querySelectorAll('.ax_paragraph')]
.map(el => {
return {el: el, mk: findMarker(el)};
})
.filter(n => n.mk !== null)
.map(o => {
return {key: o.mk, value: findValue(o.el)};
});
console.log(pairs);

var x = document.querySelectorAll(".panel-body > div >.col-md-3 > div > div");
x.forEach(myFunction);
function myFunction(item, index) {
//console.log(item.innerHTML.trim());
if (index===0){
console.log("First name : "+item.innerHTML.trim());
}
if (index===1){
console.log("Surname : "+item.innerHTML.trim());
}
}
<div class="voffset3"></div>
<div class="container well panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
First name
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5">
ABDIGANI
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
Surname
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5">
AHMED
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Check this
const firstName = document.querySelector('.row .form-group div').textContent.trim();
const surname = document.querySelector('.row > div:last-child .form-group div').textContent.trim();
note: Its better to change html according to functionality needs, like if you need firstname then you must keep an id attribute to div which is having first name, same goes to surname. then select those fields using id selector, because even if you change html page structure in future, functionality will not get effected.
Check below for reference on how the html should actually be(just to make sure you know it, but the solution you are seeking is above in first two lines)
eg:
<div class="voffset3"></div>
<div class="container well panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
First name
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5" id="firstNameField">
ABDIGANI
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<span class="ax_paragraph">
Surname
</span>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="ax_h5" id="surnameField">
AHMED
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

document.querySelector('.form-group > div').textContent but without modifying the html there is no way to distinguish first name and surname.

If you can't edit the HTML, you can use the XPATH for Example.

I want to be able to edit data given in my foreach

On my site I'm building my own kind of blog for the users and would like for the comments that people place under the posts to be editable. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get this far with it. Because they all have the same class/id.
I've tried using data-id, but I'm not really adept when it comes to those. Other than that I've searched for ages, but couldn't really find anything that could help me with the code I have.
Function that gets the post and comments:
public function announcement(Announcement $announcement)
{
$announcements = Announcement::findOrFail($announcement->id);
$category_lists = Category::withCount('posts')->get();
$replies = Reply::where('post_id', $announcement->id)->paginate(5);
return view('announcements.details', compact('announcements', 'category_lists', 'replies'));
}
The comment foreach:
#foreach($replies as $reply)
<div class="announcement">
#if(Auth::user()->admin == 1 || Auth::user()->id == $reply->user_id)
<i class="fal fa-dumpster"></i>
#endif
#if(Auth::user()->id == $reply->user_id)
<i class="fal fa-pencil float-right" id="yeet" class="float-right showhidereply" style="color: #007ac3; margin-right: 10px;" data-id="{{ $reply->id }}"></i>
#endif
<p style="font-size: 0.8rem;">{{$reply->created_at->diffForHumans()}} | Geplaatst door <span>{{$reply->username}}</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: -10px;">{!! $reply->post_content !!}</p>
#if(Auth::user()->id == $reply->user_id)
<div class="reply-expand-{{$reply->id}}" style="display: none;">
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('Reply Edit', ['id' => $reply->id]) }}">
#csrf
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-12">
<div class="form-group">
<strong>Reactie Aanpassen:</strong>
<textarea class="form-control summernote" name="detail">{!! $reply->post_content !!}</textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-12 text-center">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary pull-right" style="border-radius: 0px; box-shadow: 0px 1px 10px -4px #000000;">Aanpassen</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
#endif
<hr>
</div>
#endforeach
Editting function:
public function postSummernoteeditorReply(Request $request, $id){
$this->validate($request, [
'detail' => 'required',
]);
$detail=$request->detail;
$dom = new \DomDocument();
$dom->loadHtml( mb_convert_encoding($detail, 'HTML-ENTITIES', "UTF-8"), LIBXML_HTML_NOIMPLIED | LIBXML_HTML_NODEFDTD);
$images = $dom->getElementsByTagName('img');
foreach($images as $img){
$src = $img->getAttribute('src');
// if the img source is 'data-url'
if(preg_match('/data:image/', $src)){
// get the mimetype
preg_match('/data:image\/(?<mime>.*?)\;/', $src, $groups);
$mimetype = $groups['mime'];
// Generating a random filename
$filename = uniqid();
$filepath = "/img/blog/$filename.$mimetype";
// #see http://image.intervention.io/api/
$image = Image::make($src)
// resize if required
/* ->resize(300, 200) */
->encode($mimetype, 100) // encode file to the specified mimetype
->save(public_path($filepath));
$new_src = asset($filepath);
$img->removeAttribute('src');
$img->setAttribute('src', $new_src);
} // <!--endif
} // <!--endforeach
$detail = $dom->saveHTML();
$summernote = Summernote::find($id);
$summernote->post_content = $detail;
//dd($summernote->post_content);
//dd($summernote->post_id);
$summernote->update();
return redirect(url()->previous());
}
JQuery to show the editting form:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.summernote').summernote({
height: 400,
});
$('#yeet').click(function() {
$('.reply-expand').toggle("slide");
});
// change the selector to use a class
$("#yeet").click(function(){
// this will query for the clicked toggle
var $toggle = $(this);
// build the target form id
var id = "#replycomment-" + $toggle.data('id');
$( id ).toggle('slide');
});
});
The expected outcome should be to be able to edit each comment individually by clicking on the edit icon(pencil) next to the comment and having the form show before being able to edit. I already have the edit function and displaying the form working, but only for the first comment.
I hope someone will be able to help! Many thanks!
EDIT: When I click the edit button on the first comment, it opens the form with the data of the second/last comment, but clicking the second/last edit button doesn't do anything.

First have a unique Id for the clickable items. Right now they all have the same id (yeet) and that could be the cause of the problem.
<i class="fal fa-pencil float-right yeet" id="yeet-{{ $reply->id }}" class="float-right showhidereply" style="color: #007ac3; margin-right: 10px;"></i>
We can keep yeet as a class to handle the click events for all the comments. This way each comment will have a different Id and they will all go through the same click event.
Now change the selectors to use the yeet class intead of the id.
$('.yeet').click(function() {
//get the clicked element id and toggle the respective form
}
You have to add unique ids to the form in the same way as before to be able to toggle each one independently.

Angular ng-show if in array

I have a ng-repeat for article comments, that looks like this:
<div ng-repeat="comment in comments">
<li class="item" ng-class-even="'even'">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<i class="icon ion-person"></i> {{ comment.user.first_name }} {{ comment.user.last_name }}
<i class="icon ion-record"></i> {{ comment.created_at }}
</div>
<!-- TODO: this needs to be an ng-if admin -->
<div ng-show="hasRole(comment.user)" class="col right">
<i class="icon ion-record admin"></i> Admin
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<p>{{ comment.text }}</p>
</div>
</div>
</li>
</div>
I am trying to show this part only if the user is an admin:
<div ng-show="hasRole(comment.user)" class="col right">
<i class="icon ion-record admin"></i> Admin
</div>
I have tried to set that up following the answers here.
So I made a function in my controller:
$scope.hasRole = function(roleName) {
return $scope.comments.user.roles.indexOf(roleName) >= 0;
}
But it returns -1 every time, even when the user is an admin. My data looks like this:
1:Object
$$hashKey: "object:28"
article_id:"2"
created_at:"2016-05-12 12:19:05"
id:6
text:"someCommentText"
updated_at:null
user:Object
active:"1"
created_at:null
first_name:"admin"
id:1
last_name:"admin"
roles:Array[1]
0:Object
created_at:null
id:1
name:"Admin"
parent_id:null
pivot:Object
slug:"admin"

Use this in your HTML
<div ng-show="hasAdminRole(comment.user.roles)" class="col right">
<i class="icon ion-record admin"></i> Admin
</div>
this is the method to determine that the user belongs to the admin role or not.
$scope.hasAdminRole = function(roles) {
var isAdmin = false;
for(var i = 0; i < roles.length; i++) {
if (roles[i].name == 'Admin') {
isAdmin = true;
break;
}
}
return isAdmin;
}

Perhaps you have an error on this line?
var indexOfRole = $scope.comments.indexOf(user.roles);
You are looking here to see if the list of roles for this users exists within the array of comments.
Maybe you need to just check in the actual user.roles array and see if there is an Admin role there? Something like:
$scope.hasRole = function(user) {
for (var i = 0; i < user.roles.length; i++) {
if (user.roles[i].slug === 'admin') { return true; }
}
return false
}

That's because it's an object, you can fetch the index of only array. In the link that you provided is an array.

});
But It is working fine with the direct search on textbox.
but according to the requirement I have to perform it on button click.
Your suggestions and help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You can search for a specific row by making some simple tweaks.
add a filter to the ng-repeat, and filter it by a model that you will insert on the button click, like so: <tr ng-repeat="row in rowCollection | filter: searchQuery">
in your view, add that model (using ng-model) to an input tag and define it in your controller
then pass the value to the filter when you click the search button
here's a plunk that demonstrates this
you can use filter:searchQuery:true for strict search
EDIT:
OK, so OP's big problem was that the filtered values wouldn't show properly when paginated, the filter query is taken from an input box rather then using the de-facto st-search plug-in, So I referred to an already existing issue in github (similar), I've pulled out this plunk and modified it slightly to fit the questioned use case.
