> Deterministic version of JSON.stringify(), so you can get a consistent hash from stringified results.
Similar to json-stable-stringify but:
- No Dependencies. Minimal as possible.
- Better cycles detection.
- Support serialization for object without .toJSON (such as RegExp).
- Provides built-in TypeScript declarations.
``bash`
npm install json-stringify-deterministic --save
`js
const stringify = require('json-stringify-deterministic')
const obj = { c: 8, b: [{ z: 6, y: 5, x: 4 }, 7], a: 3 }
console.log(stringify(obj))
// => {"a":3,"b":[{"x":4,"y":5,"z":6},7],"c":8}
`
#### obj
Required
Type: object
The input object to be serialized.
#### opts
##### opts.stringify
Type: function
Default:
Determinate how to stringify primitives values.
##### opts.cycles
Type: boolean
Default:
Determinate how to resolve cycles.
Under true, when a cycle is detected, [Circular] will be inserted in the node.
##### opts.compare
Type: function
Custom comparison function for object keys.
Your function opts.compare is called with these parameters:
` js`
opts.cmp({ key: akey, value: avalue }, { key: bkey, value: bvalue })
For example, to sort on the object key names in reverse order you could write:
` js
const stringify = require('json-stringify-deterministic')
const obj = { c: 8, b: [{z: 6,y: 5,x: 4}, 7], a: 3 }
const objSerializer = stringify(obj, function (a, b) {
return a.key < b.key ? 1 : -1
})
console.log(objSerializer)
// => {"c":8,"b":[{"z":6,"y":5,"x":4},7],"a":3}
`
Or if you wanted to sort on the object values in reverse order, you could write:
`js
const stringify = require('json-stringify-deterministic')
const obj = { d: 6, c: 5, b: [{ z: 3, y: 2, x: 1 }, 9], a: 10 }
const objtSerializer = stringify(obj, function (a, b) {
return a.value < b.value ? 1 : -1
})
console.log(objtSerializer)
// => {"d":6,"c":5,"b":[{"z":3,"y":2,"x":1},9],"a":10}
`
##### opts.space
Type: string
Default:
If you specify opts.space, it will indent the output for pretty-printing.
Valid values are strings (e.g. {space: \t}). For example:
`js
const stringify = require('json-stringify-deterministic')
const obj = { b: 1, a: { foo: 'bar', and: [1, 2, 3] } }
const objSerializer = stringify(obj, { space: ' ' })
console.log(objSerializer)
// => {
// "a": {
// "and": [
// 1,
// 2,
// 3
// ],
// "foo": "bar"
// },
// "b": 1
// }
`
##### opts.replacer
Type: function
The replacer parameter is a function opts.replacer(key, value)` that behaves
the same as the replacer
from the core JSON object.
