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 --save stringify-object

Usage

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

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

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