Stringify is to eval as JSON.stringify is to JSON.parse.
npm install javascript-stringify --save
bower install javascript-stringify --savevar javascriptStringify = require('javascript-stringify');define(function (require, exports, module) {
var javascriptStringify = require('javascript-stringify');
});<script src="javascript-stringify.js"></script>javascriptStringify(value[, replacer [, space]])The API is similar to JSON.stringify. However, any value returned by the replacer will be used literally. For this reason, the replacer is passed three arguments - value, indentation and stringify. If you need to continue the stringification process inside your replacer, you can call stringify with the updated value.
javascriptStringify({}); // "{}"
javascriptStringify(true); // "true"
javascriptStringify('foo'); // "'foo'"
javascriptStringify({ x: 5, y: 6}); // "{x:5,y:6}"
javascriptStringify([1, 2, 3, 'string']); // "[1,2,3,'string']"
/**
* Invalid key names are automatically stringified.
*/
javascriptStringify({ 'some-key': 10 }); // "{'some-key':10}"
/**
* Some object types and values can remain identical.
*/
javascriptStringify([/.+/ig, new Number(10), new Date()]); // "[/.+/gi,new Number(10),new Date(1406623295732)]"
/**
* Unknown or circular references are removed.
*/
var obj = { x: 10 };
obj.circular = obj;
javascriptStringify(obj); // "{x:10}"
/**
* Specify indentation - just like `JSON.stringify`.
*/
javascriptStringify({ a: 2 }, null, ' '); // "{\n a: 2\n}"
javascriptStringify({ uno: 1, dos : 2 }, null, '\t'); // "{\n\tuno: 1,\n\tdos: 2\n}"
/**
* Add custom replacer behaviour - like double quoted strings.
*/
javascriptStringify(['test', 'string'], function (value, indent, stringify) {
if (typeof value === 'string') {
return '"' + value.replace(/"/g, '\\"') + '"';
}
return stringify(value);
});
//=> '["test","string"]'MIT
