Sorting a Bookmark List

Hey All,

I am very new Qlik Sense and was tasked to build an extension that allows for bookmarks to be accessed via a dropdown. I found that the "toolbar" example had this built out already, but there were two issues:

1. You had to click an "apply" button to load the bookmark. I was asked to remove the button and have it load when selected. (I fixed this and made it load "onchange")

2. Due to a custom naming convention, I was asked that the bookmarks be sorted alphabetically.

I need some help on number 2.  The code I need help on is below.


paint : function($element, layout) {
var html = '', app = qlik.currApp(this);
if(layout.bookmark && layout.bookmark.apply && layout.qBookmarkList) {
html += '<div class="lui-buttongroup">';
html += '<select class="lui-select bookmark_list"><option value="" selected="">Select a Bookmark</option>';
layout.qBookmarkList.qItems.forEach( function(a) {
if(a.qMeta && a.qMeta.title) {
html += "<option value='" + a.qInfo.qId + "'>" + a.qMeta.title + "</option>";
}
}
);
html += '</select>';
}
$element.html(html);
var $fields = $element.find(".fields"),
$bookmarks = $element.find(".bookmark_list").on('change',function() {app.bookmark.apply($bookmarks.val());});

 

Side note: I only have access to the web version of Qlik Sense.
