serialize objects to javascript

Package Exports

  • serialize-to-js
  • serialize-to-js/lib/index.js
  • serialize-to-js/src/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (serialize-to-js) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

serialize

serialize(source, opts, opts.ignoreCircular, opts.reference)

serializes an object to javascript

Example - serializing regex, date, buffer, ...

const serialize = require('serialize-to-js')
const obj = {
  str: '<script>var a = 0 > 1</script>',
  num: 3.1415,
  bool: true,
  nil: null,
  undef: undefined,
  obj: { foo: 'bar' },
  arr: [1, '2'],
  regexp: /^test?$/,
  date: new Date(),
  buffer: new Buffer('data'),
  set: new Set([1, 2, 3]),
  map: new Map([['a': 1],['b': 2]])
}
console.log(serialize(obj))
//> '{str: "\u003Cscript\u003Evar a = 0 \u003E 1\u003C\u002Fscript\u003E",
//>   num: 3.1415, bool: true, nil: null, undef: undefined,
//>   obj: {foo: "bar"}, arr: [1, "2"], regexp: new RegExp("^test?$", ""),
//>   date: new Date("2019-12-29T10:37:36.613Z"),
//>   buffer: Buffer.from("ZGF0YQ==", "base64"), set: new Set([1, 2, 3]),
//>   map: new Map([["a", 1], ["b", 2]])}'

Example - serializing while respecting references

var serialize = require('serialize-to-js')
var obj = { object: { regexp: /^test?$/ } };
obj.reference = obj.object;
var opts = { reference: true };
console.log(serialize(obj, opts));
//> {object: {regexp: /^test?$/}}
console.log(opts.references);
//> [ [ '.reference', '.object' ] ]

Parameters

source: Object | Array | function | Any, source to serialize
opts: Object, options
opts.ignoreCircular: Boolean, ignore circular objects
opts.reference: Boolean, reference instead of a copy (requires post-processing of opts.references)
opts.unsafe: Boolean, do not escape chars <>/
Returns: String, serialized representation of source
