redact-object

Redact Object

A javascript object redactor. So I like to output any configurations when my app starts up. Problem is if you have any passwords or other info you don't want in the log you have to clear it out beforehand.

Usage

Pass in an object and an array of members you want to redact. It will recursively travel the object redacting any matching members.

const redact = require('redact-object');

var obj = {
  foo: 'bar',
  fizz: {
    foo: 'oof',
    key: 'value'
  }
};

/**
 * Results in:
 * {
 *   foo: '[ REDACTED ]',
 *   fizz: {
 *     foo: '[ REDACTED ]',
 *     key: 'value'
 *   }
 * }
 */
console.dir(redact(obj), ['foo']);

Arguments

• {object} target The target object to scan for redactable items
• {string[]} keywords A list of members to redact
• {string} replaceVal Optional custom replace value
