How to get min values structs from array?

If you want it to output in exactly the same output as you stated (so the same order as the original) then I’d just do this:

╰─➤  iex
Erlang/OTP 20 [erts-9.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:2:2] [ds:2:2:10] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Interactive Elixir (1.6.1) - press Ctrl+C to exit (type h() ENTER for help)
iex(1)> array = [%{count: 1, img: 1}, %{count: 1, img: 2}, %{count: 3, img: 3}, %{count: 1, img: 4}]
[
  %{count: 1, img: 1},
  %{count: 1, img: 2},
  %{count: 3, img: 3},
  %{count: 1, img: 4}
]
iex(2)> {_, array} = Enum.reduce(Enum.reverse(array), {nil, []}, fn
...(2)>   %{count: count} = v, {c, a} when count < c -> {count, [v]}
...(2)>   %{count: count} = v, {count, a} -> {count, [v | a]}
...(2)>   _, acc -> acc
...(2)> end)
{1, [%{count: 1, img: 1}, %{count: 1, img: 2}, %{count: 1, img: 4}]}
