What is circular-json?

The circular-json npm package is designed to handle JSON serialization and deserialization of objects that contain circular references. This is particularly useful when working with complex data structures that would otherwise cause errors with the standard JSON.stringify and JSON.parse methods.

What are circular-json's main functionalities?

Stringify with Circular References

This feature allows you to convert an object with circular references into a JSON string without causing errors. The code sample demonstrates how to stringify an object that references itself.

const CircularJSON = require('circular-json');
const obj = {};
obj.self = obj;
const jsonString = CircularJSON.stringify(obj);
console.log(jsonString);

Parse with Circular References

This feature allows you to parse a JSON string that contains circular references back into an object. The code sample shows how to parse a JSON string that represents an object with a circular reference.

const CircularJSON = require('circular-json');
const jsonString = '{"self":"~"}';
const obj = CircularJSON.parse(jsonString);
console.log(obj);
