Extends JSON.stringify and JSON.parse to support additional JS types (Dates, RegExps, Functions, etc)
npm install superjson
The goal of this project is to properly serialize and deserialize JSON structures. It'd be nice if this was as fast as possible, but consistent data types in and out is more important. If it's impossible to consistently serialize or deserialize an object, the library should throw.
var json = require('superjson');
var str = json.stringify({
date: new Date(),
regexp: /[abc]d/,
fn: function foo() {}
})
var obj = json.parse(str)
{
date: date, // date instance
regexp: /[abc]d/, // regexp instance
fn: function foo() {} // foo function
