serialize objects to javascript

Package Exports

  • serialize-to-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.

Methods

serialize

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

serializes an object to javascript

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

var serialize = require('serialize-to-js').serialize;
var 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?$/,
  date: new Date(),
  buffer: new Buffer('data'),
}
console.log(serialize(obj))
// > {str: "\u003Cscript\u003Evar a = 0 \u003E 1\u003C\u002Fscript\u003E", num: 3.1415, bool: true, nil: null, undef: undefined, obj: {foo: "bar"}, arr: [1, "2"], regexp: /^test?$/, date: new Date("2016-04-15T16:22:52.009Z"), buffer: new Buffer('ZGF0YQ==', 'base64')}

Example - serializing while respecting references

var serialize = require('serialize-to-js').serialize;
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)

Returns: String, serialized representation of source

deserialize

deserialize(str)

deserialize a serialized object to javascript

Example - deserializing regex, date, ...

var str = '{obj: {foo: "bar"}, arr: [1, "2"], regexp: /^test?$/, date: new Date("2016-04-15T16:22:52.009Z")}'
var res = deserialize(str)
console.log(res)
//> { obj: { foo: 'bar' },
//>   arr: [ 1, '2' ],
//>   regexp: /^test?$/,
//>   date: Sat Apr 16 2016 01:22:52 GMT+0900 (JST) }

Parameters

str: String, string containing serialized data

Returns: Any, deserialized data

serializeToModule

serializeToModule(source, opts, opts.ignoreCircular, opts.reference, opts.comment, opts.beautify)

serialize to a module which can be requireed.

Example - serializing while respecting references

var serialTM = require('serialize-to-js').serializeToModule;
var obj = { object: { regexp: /^test?$/ } };
obj.reference = obj.object;
console.log(serialTM(obj, { reference: true }));
//> var m = module.exports = {
//>     object: {
//>         regexp: /^test?$/
//>     }
//> };
//> m.reference = m.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.comment: Boolean, add a comments - useful for linting tools e.g. using 'eslint-disable'

opts.beautify: Boolean | Object, beautify output - default is false. If Object then use je-beautify options.

Returns: String, serialized representation of source as module
