Sorting a list of dictionaries by dictionary key

Wed, 03 May 2006 05:53:54 -0700 

Hi there,

I am looking for a way to sort a list containing dictionaries.

This is my example list:
[{'Title': 'ABC', 'from_datetime': DateTime('2006/04/25 12:45:00 
GMT+2')}, {'Title': 'DEF', 'from_datetime': DateTime('2006/04/18 
12:45:00 GMT+2')}, {'Title': 'GHI', 'from_datetime': 
DateTime('2006/03/10 12:45:00 GMT+2')}]

I want to sort the list by dictionary's key 'from_datetime' so the 
sorted list should be:

[{'Title': 'GHI', 'from_datetime': DateTime('2006/03/10 12:45:00 
GMT+2')}, {'Title': 'DEF', 'from_datetime': DateTime('2006/04/18 
12:45:00 GMT+2')}, {'Title': 'ABC', 'from_datetime': 
DateTime('2006/04/25 12:45:00 GMT+2')}]

Any idea how I can sort this list?


Thank you very much in advance,
   Nico
