simple-json-circular v1.1.0

JSON.encodeCirculars

Replaces circular references with JSON path to the first occurence of the object.

Prevents:

> const myArray = [12, 'abc']
undefined
> myArray[2] = myArray
[ 12, 'abc', [Circular] ]
> JSON.stringify(myArray)
TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON

Outputs:

> const myArray = [12, 'abc']
> myArray[2] = myArray
[ 12, 'abc', [Circular] ]
> JSON.encodeCirculars(myArray)
[ 12, 'abc', { '$ref': '$' } ]

JSON.decodeCirculars

Replaces JSON paths with referenced object. Outputs:

> const myArray = [ 12, 'abc', { '$ref': '$' } ]
undefined
> JSON.decodeCirculars(myArray)
[ 12, 'abc', [Circular] ]
