json-serializer
===============

The purpose of this library is to have a generic object serialization tool that is JSON compatible (by default).
Apart from JSON.stringify(object) compatible json.serialize(object) function, json.serialize can be passed with config options json.serialize(object, config), which properties can be described:

* excludedInstances=undefined Array of instances that will be excluded from object tree elements (instanceof check)
* level=undefined Level number (>=1) that serializer should not go below
* excludedTypes=undefined Array of types that will be excluded from object tree elements (typeof check)
* excludedNames=undefined Array of property names that will be excluded from object tree elements
* own=undefined If use hasOwnProperty should be used while checking if object property will be added
* excludeOnTrue=undefined function reference that will be used to decide which elements will be included
* dateAsString=true How date will be returned
* raw = false dont use "json" standard output and serialize real values (undefines, dates as numbers etc)
* includeFunctions=false if functions will be ignored or not, if not, they will be treated like objects
* fakeFunctions = false if includeFunctions is used, this options tell to return blank function instead of traversing it as object
* realFunctions = false if includeFunctions is used, functions will be returned as their "toString()" values
* prettyPrint=false return output "prettyfied", it does not prettify functions contents.

By default json.serialize(object) will output normal JSON, same as known JSON.stringify.

json have following features:

* does not pollute Object.prototype - it is simple static function
* implementation is very minimal and kept simple (feel free to commit to work)
* delivers function json.parse which is a similar method to JSON.parse, with a simpler regex used.
