const json = require('json-keys-sort');
var data = {
"zoho": 4,
"drake": 2,
"yogo": {
"jout": "3.2",
"aou": {
"yoyo": "3.1.3",
"aalo": "3.1.1",
"go": "3.1.2"
}
},
"abc": 1
}

// sync (return sorted data)
json.sort(data, true)

// async (return promise of sorted data)
json.sortAsync(data, true)

Output will be -

"abc": 1,
"drake": 2,
"yogo": {
"aou": {
"aalo": "3.1.1",
"go": "3.1.2",

},
"zoho": 4

+ function parameters (for both sort & sortAsync)
- data: the json object to sort
- sort:
- true (default) : ascending sort , since it is default you can only call json.sort(data) or json.sortAsync(data)
- false : descending sort

+ The function work recursively and sort all the inner json objects too.
