A simple dependency-free recursive class/interface serializer.
npm i @jexsrs/serializerFirst we have to create an array of the types we want to serialize:
const types = [Person, Pet]; // The order must always be the sameWhere Person and Pet are the following classes
class Person {
name: string;
pet: Pet;
}
class Pet {
name: string;
}Then we initialize the Serializer with the given types:
import {Serializer} from "@jexsrs/serializer";
const srz = new Serializer(types);After that you can serialize and deserialize the classes as follows:
const pet = new Pet();
pet.name = 'Fluffy';
const person = new Person();
person.name = 'Michael';
person.pet = pet;
const serialized: string = srz.serialize(person);
const desrialized: Person = srz.deserialize(serialized);The serializer is recursive but cannot handle circular entries, for example:
class Person {
name: string;
pet: Pet;
}
class Pet {
name: string;
owner: Person;
}
const pet = new Pet();
pet.name = 'Fluffy';
const person = new Person();
person.name = 'Michael';
person.pet = pet;
pet.owner = person; // This will cause the failure
const serialized: string = srz.serialize(person); // !!! This will fail
const desrialized: Person = srz.deserialize(serialized);
