jsonz

Zero dependencies JSON objects compression library

• it works with JSON.stringify() therefore it inherits all its limitations for types serialization (check this)
• the compressed response is processed using the encodeURIComponent() method so it is URL friendly
• the compressSorted method recursively sort object keys and values before compressing
• this library works on Nodejs: to use it in the browser please refer to browserify-zlib

Installation

npm install @ttessarolo/jsonz

Example

import { compress, compressSorted, decompress } from "jsonz";

// Pure JSON object
const obj = {
  tenant: "japan",
  reference: "movies",
  ts: 1669997354214,
  blockId: "IN7AAWsmQIXjcp5x2yX3F",
  internalId: "VAhK7yqm4c575JDZ-QcC0",
  contentIds: ["Z", "A"],
  catalog: "objects",
  eventId: "view",
  subId: "YPZ-AtIlD6UuC-0HbhHyF",
};

// Compress and Decompress JSON Object
const compressed = compress(obj);
const decompressed = decompress(compressed);

console.log(decompressed);

// --> prints
// {
//   tenant: "japan",
//   reference: "movies",
//   ts: 1669997354214,
//   blockId: "IN7AAWsmQIXjcp5x2yX3F",
//   internalId: "VAhK7yqm4c575JDZ-QcC0",
//   contentIds: ["Z", "A"],
//   catalog: "objects",
//   eventId: "view",
//   subId: "YPZ-AtIlD6UuC-0HbhHyF",
// }

// Compress Sorted
const compressedOrdered = compressSorted(obj);
const decompressedOrdered = decompress(compressedOrdered);

console.log(decompressedOrdered);

// --> prints
// {
//   blockId: "IN7AAWsmQIXjcp5x2yX3F",
//   catalog: "objects",
//   contentIds: ["A", "Z"],
//   eventId: "view",
//   internalId: "VAhK7yqm4c575JDZ-QcC0",
//   reference: "movies",
//   subId: "YPZ-AtIlD6UuC-0HbhHyF",
