Condenses JSON by shortening literals and numbers

json-condenser makes JSON shorter but still (kind of) human-readable. Great for embedding JSON data in URLs.

const KEYS = ['id', 'name', 'email', 'role', 'admin']
const json = [{"id":1,"name":"John","email":"[e-mail]","role":"admin"}]

let payload = condense(KEYS, json)
//=> [{e:1,f:"John",g:"[e-mail]",h:i}]

expand(KEYS, payload)
//=> [{"id":1,"name":"John","email":"[e-mail]","role":"admin"}]
