Faster deterministic JSON.stringify()
without bells and whistles.

const json = stableStringify({greetings: 'Hello!', apples: 'bananas'});
// json = {"apples":"bananas","greetings":"Hello!"}
Installation
$ npm install faster-stable-stringify
Features
JSON.stringify
that has deterministic output- Handles edge cases in accordance with the spec
- Replaces cycles with
"[Circular]"
similar to isaac's json-stringify-safe
API
A single function is exported.
stableStringify(value)
The behavior is identical to the native JSON.stringify
, excluding circular
structures. See here for an explanation of the JSON.stringify
behavior.
Alternatives
If you need to customize the sorting behavior, or want an implementation that throws on circular references, you may prefer to use substack's json-stable-stringify.
If you need it to work in the browser or in an environment without a native
JSON.stringify
, you may prefer to use nickyout's fast-stable-stringify.
