stringify-object

Stringify an object/array like JSON.stringify just without all the double-quotes

Useful for when you want to get the string representation of an object in a formatted way.

It also handles circular references and lets you specify quote type.

Install

$ npm install stringify-object

Usage

const stringifyObject = require('stringify-object');

const obj = {
	foo: 'bar',
	'arr': [1, 2, 3],
	nested: { hello: "world" }
};

const pretty = stringifyObject(obj, {
	indent: '  ',
	singleQuotes: false
});

console.log(pretty);
/*
{
	foo: "bar",
	arr: [
		1,
		2,
		3
	],
	nested: {
		hello: "world"
	}
}
*/

API

stringifyObject(input, [options])

Circular references will be replaced with "[Circular]".

input

Type: Object Array

options

indent

Type: string
Default: \t

Preferred indentation.

singleQuotes

Type: boolean
Default: true

Set to false to get double-quoted strings.

filter(obj, prop)

Type: Function

Expected to return a boolean of whether to include the property prop of the object obj in the output.

transform(obj, prop, originalResult)

Type: Function
Default: undefined

Expected to return a string that transforms the string that resulted from stringifying obj[prop]. This can be used to detect special types of objects that need to be stringified in a particular way. The transform function might return an alternate string in this case, otherwise returning the originalResult.

Here's an example that uses the transform option to mask fields named "password":

const obj = {
	user: 'becky',
	password: 'secret'
}

const pretty = stringifyObject(obj, {
	transform: (obj, prop, originalResult) => {
		if (prop === 'password') {
			return originalResult.replace(/\w/g, '*');
		} else {
			return originalResult;
		}
	}
});

console.log(pretty);
/*
{
	user: 'becky',
	password: '******'
}
*/

inlineCharacterLimit

Type: number

When set, will inline values up to inlineCharacterLimit length for the sake of more terse output.

For example, given the example at the top of the README:

const obj = {
	foo: 'bar',
	'arr': [1, 2, 3],
	nested: { hello: "world" }
};

const pretty = stringifyObject(obj, {
	indent: '  ',
	singleQuotes: false,
	inlineCharacterLimit: 12
});

console.log(pretty);
/*
{
	foo: "bar",
	arr: [1, 2, 3],
	nested: {
		hello: "world"
	}
}
*/

As you can see, arr was printed as a one-liner because its string was shorter than 12 characters.
