jsDump

jsDump.parse(object) returns a string containing a human-readable representation of object.

jsDump is like Mozilla’s toSource(), but it works in all modern browsers.

jsDump was originally developed by Ariel Flesler. This fork based on version 1.0.0.

Similar Stuff

• JSON.stringify(). Doesn’t serialize functions and DOM nodes.
• inspect() from Node.js sys module
• repr() from Narwhal’s util module
• console._source_of() from Console.js

NPM

npm install jsDump

Usage:

var jsDump = require("jsDump");
jsDump.parse({foo: 'bar', length: 0});

Tests

In the browser:

1. git submodule update --init
2. open tests/index.html

Or from command line:

$ narwhal tests/*_test.js

Contribution

Use jQuery coding style. Basically, use tabs instead of spaces.
