# fast-json-stable-stringify | |
Deterministic `JSON.stringify()` - a faster version of [@substack](https://github.com/substack)'s json-stable-strigify without [jsonify](https://github.com/substack/jsonify). | |
You can also pass in a custom comparison function. | |

# example | |
``` js | |
var stringify = require('fast-json-stable-stringify'); | |
var obj = { c: 8, b: [{z:6,y:5,x:4},7], a: 3 }; | |
console.log(stringify(obj)); | |
``` | |
output: | |
``` | |
{"a":3,"b":[{"x":4,"y":5,"z":6},7],"c":8} | |
``` | |
# methods | |
``` js | |
var stringify = require('fast-json-stable-stringify') | |
``` | |
## var str = stringify(obj, opts) | |
Return a deterministic stringified string `str` from the object `obj`. | |
## options | |
### cmp | |
If `opts` is given, you can supply an `opts.cmp` to have a custom comparison | |
function for object keys. Your function `opts.cmp` 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 | |
var stringify = require('fast-json-stable-stringify'); | |
var obj = { c: 8, b: [{z:6,y:5,x:4},7], a: 3 }; | |
var s = stringify(obj, function (a, b) { | |
return a.key < b.key ? 1 : -1; | |
}); | |
console.log(s); | |
``` | |
which results in the output string: | |
``` | |
{"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: | |
``` | |
var stringify = require('fast-json-stable-stringify'); | |
var obj = { d: 6, c: 5, b: [{z:3,y:2,x:1},9], a: 10 }; | |
var s = stringify(obj, function (a, b) { | |
return a.value < b.value ? 1 : -1; | |
}); | |
console.log(s); | |
``` | |
which outputs: | |
``` | |
{"d":6,"c":5,"b":[{"z":3,"y":2,"x":1},9],"a":10} | |
``` | |
### cycles | |
Pass `true` in `opts.cycles` to stringify circular property as `__cycle__` - the result will not be a valid JSON string in this case. | |
TypeError will be thrown in case of circular object without this option. | |
