Reliably and recursively clone javascript objects
npm install lutils-clone
Clones an object, recursively.
import clone from 'lutils-clone'
const test = new class Test {}
const obj = {
a : { b: 2 },
fn : function() {}
test,
}
const newObj = clone(obj)
newObj.a.b = 5
obj.a.b // 2
newObj.a === obj.a // false
newObj.test === test // false
newObj.test.__proto__ === test.__proto__ // true
newObj.fn === obj.fn // true

// Decremented with each recursion for each nested object, halting the clone at 0
// A halted clone will preserve references to any remaining values
depth: 8,
// Determines whether recursing will occur. When this type matches, it will be iterated over.
types: { object: true, array: true }
types: [ "object", "array" ] // Can also be an array of type strings
