Usage

import { serialize } from 'seroval';

const object = {
  number: [Math.random(), -0, NaN, Infinity, -Infinity],
  string: ['hello world', '<script>Hello World</script>'],
  boolean: [true, false],
  null: null,
  undefined: undefined,
  bigint: 9007199254740991n,
  array: [,,,], // holes
  regexp: /[a-z0-9]+/i,
  date: new Date(),
  map: new Map([['hello', 'world']]),
  set: new Set(['hello', 'world']),
};

// self cyclic references
// recursive objects
object.self = object;
// recursive arrays
object.array.push(object.array);
// recursive maps
object.map.set('self', object.map);
// recursive sets
object.set.add(object.set);

// mutual cyclic references
object.array.push(object.map);
object.map.set('mutual', object.set);
object.set.add(object.array);

const result = serialize(object);
console.log(result);

Output (as a string):

((h,j,k,m)=>(m={number:[0.28952097444015235,-0,NaN,1/0,-1/0],string:["hello world","\x3Cscript>Hello World\x3C/script>"],boolean:[!0,!1],null:null,undefined:void 0,bigint:9007199254740991n,array:h=[,,,,j=new Map([["hello","world"],["mutual",k=new Set(["hello","world"])]])],regexp:/[a-z0-9]+/i,date:new Date("2023-03-22T02:53:41.129Z"),map:j,set:k},h[3]=h,j.set("self",j),k.add(k).add(h),m.self=m,m))()

// Formatted for readability
((h, j, k, m) => (m = {
  number: [0.28952097444015235, -0, NaN, 1 / 0, -1 / 0],
  string: ["hello world", "\x3Cscript>Hello World\x3C/script>"],
  boolean: [!0, !1],
  null: null,
  undefined: void 0,
  bigint: 9007199254740991n,
  array: h = [, , , , j = new Map([
    ["hello", "world"],
    ["mutual", k = new Set(["hello", "world"])]
  ])],
  regexp: /[a-z0-9]+/i,
  date: new Date("2023-03-22T02:53:41.129Z"),
  map: j,
  set: k
}, h[3] = h, j.set("self", j), k.add(k).add(h), m.self = m, m))()
