PHPの多次元連想配列のソート

ただの配列であれば簡単にソートは出来てしまいますが、それが多次元であったときのソート方法です。

こんな配列があったと仮定します。

multisort.php

$array = array(
    array(
        'id'        => 0,
        'track_num' => 7,
        'title'     => 'ベィスドロップ・フリークス',
        'artist'    => 'かめりあ feat. ななひら'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 1,
        'track_num' => 1,
        'title'     => 'CHRONO DIVER -NORNIR-',
        'artist'    =>  'L.E.D.'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 2,
        'track_num' => 3,
        'title'     => 'illuminate',
        'artist'    => 'Sota Fujimori'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 3,
        'track_num' => 10,
        'title'     => '表裏一体！？怪盗いいんちょの悩み♥',
        'artist'    => '◇◆噂の怪盗少女 ぷらずま★彡Prim◇◆'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 4,
        'track_num' => 28,
        'title'     => 'Night sky',
        'artist'    => 'USAO'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 5,
        'track_num' => 14,
        'title'     => 'Night sky (Extended Mix)',
        'artist'    => 'USAO'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 6,
        'track_num' => 30,
        'title'     => 'Ｘ↑Ｘ↓',
        'artist'    => 'DJ TECHNORCH'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 7,
        'track_num' => 11,
        'title'     => 'Ｘ↑Ｘ↓ (Titanium Sisters Long Version)',
        'artist'    => 'DJ TECHNORCH'
    ),
    array(
        'id'        => 8,
        'track_num' => 31,
        'title'     => 'Line 4 Ruin',
        'artist'    => 'Ryu☆'
    ),
);

これを、track_num(トラックナンバー)でソートしたい時。
ソート用の配列を用意して array_multisort() で一撃。

foreach ((array) $array as $key => $value) {
    $sort[$key] = $value['track_num'];
}

array_multisort($sort, SORT_ASC, $array);
print_r($array);
