GitHub - inspect-js/node-deep-equal: node's assert.deepEqual algorithm (original) (raw)

deep-equal

Node's assert.deepEqual() algorithm as a standalone module, that also works in browser environments.

It mirrors the robustness of node's own assert.deepEqual and is robust against later builtin modification.

example

var equal = require('deep-equal'); console.dir([ equal( { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] }, { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] } ), equal( { x : 5, y : [6] }, { x : 5, y : 6 } ) ]);

methods

var deepEqual = require('deep-equal')

deepEqual(a, b, opts)

Compare objects a and b, returning whether they are equal according to a recursive equality algorithm.

If opts.strict is true, use strict equality (===) to compare leaf nodes. The default is to use coercive equality (==) because that's how assert.deepEqual() works by default.
