print(natsort(items))  
# ['item 1', 'item 3', 'item 10']

Sort case insensitively

items = ['Item 1', 'Item 3', 'item 2']
print(natsort(items, ignore_case=True))
# ['Item 1', 'item 2', 'Item 3']

Sort complex objects based on property

items = [
    {'name': 'item 1', 'id': 1},
    {'name': 'item 3', 'id': 3},
    {'name': 'item 2', 'id': 2}
]
print(natsort(items, key=lambda d: d['name']))
# [{'name': 'item 1', 'id': 1}, {'name': 'item 2', 'id': 2}, {'name': 'item 3', 'id': 3}]
