Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save stringify-keys

Usage

var stringify = require('stringify-keys');

var obj = { a: 'a', b: { c: { d: { e: 'f' } } } };
console.log(stringify(obj));
//=> [ 'a', 'b.c.d.e', 'b.c.d', 'b.c', 'b' ]

Keys with dots are automatically escaped with backslashes (this can be customized):

var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };
console.log(stringify(obj));
//=> [ 'a\\.b\\.c.d', 'a\\.b\\.c' ]

Options

options.separator

Type: string

Default: .

Custom separator to use for creating object paths (a.b.c):

Example

var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };
console.log(stringify(obj, { separator: '/' }));
//=>  [ 'a.b.c/d', 'a.b.c' ]

options.escape

Type: function

Default: adds \\ before dots

Custom function to use for escaping keys.

Example

var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };

var result = stringify(obj, { 
  escape: str => str.split('.').join('/') 
});

console.log(result);
//=>  [ 'a/b/c.d', 'a/b/c' ]
