accessed

Accessed is a simple module that allows you to track property access of a given object to ensure that only the data that is used (or not used) is included when you JSON.stringify the data.

Install

The module is published in the public npm registry and can be installed by running:

npm install --save accessed

Usage

const accessed = require('accessed');

const data = accessed({
  foo: 'bar',
  bar: 'wat',
  key: 'value'
});

console.log(data.foo);
console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); // {"foo":"bar"}

console.log(data.bar);
console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); // {"foo":"bar", "bar": "wat"}

The module exposes the accessed function as default export. The function accepts 2 arguments.

• data The object that needs to be tracked.
• options Additional configuration
  • keys An array of keys that should be included, even when they are not accessed by the code.
  • exclude Instead of returning an object on JSON.stringify that represents the keys that were accessed, return the data that was not accesed.

const data = accessed({ foo: 'bar', hello: 'world' }, {
  keys: ['hello']
});

console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); // {"hello":"world"}
