如何按字符串格式按日期对对象列表进行排序?

How to sort a List of Object by date in String format?

我有一个列表,它有一个名为 updatedAt 的参数,它是一个具有 DateTime.now().toString().substring(0, 19) 的字符串,我需要按日期(最新(位置 0)到最旧(最后位置))组织,但是当我尝试使用 list.sort((a, b) => a.updatedAt.compareTo(b.updatedAt)) 时出现以下错误,我是否必须将字符串转换为 DateTime 或其他内容?

class Product {

  String id;
  String image;
  String name;
  String desc;
  int price;
  int quantity;
  String category;
  String createdAt;
  String updatedAt;
  bool active;

  Product({this.id, this.image, this.name, this.desc, this.price, this.quantity,
    this.category, this.createdAt, this.updatedAt, this.active}){
    quantity = 1;
    active = true;
  }

  Future<void> getProducts() async {

        List<Product> products = [];

        products.addAll(await getProductsFromFirestore()); // Here I add products from Firebase...

        print(products[0].updatedAt); // 2020-07-21 12:31:08
        print(products[1].updatedAt); // 2020-07-21 12:31:13
    
        products.sort((a, b) => a.updatedAt.compareTo(b.updatedAt));

  }

错误(Flutter Web):

Error: Expected a value of type 'Comparable<dynamic>', but got one of type 'Product'

问题是我没有使用 List,我使用 get package 进行状态管理,我的产品列表是一个可观察对象,它在另一个变量中包含 List itsefl,因此排序无效应该的,而且我不得不更改为 'b.updatedAt.compareTo(a.updatedAt))' 以按照我需要的顺序获取列表。
