json.minify

Converts JSON objects into arrays, minimizing them a lot!

⚠️ be careful, this library does not check for differences in schemas and is mainly aimed to APIs in which all objects returned are the same. If you pass arrays with different schemed objects, they will not be checked against values, causing weird and unexpected results (specially on explode)

Installation

npm i json.minify

Usage

const jsonMinifier = require('json.minify');

// or

const { minify, explode } = require('json.minify');

// you can add .minify() and .explode() to global JSON by using:
jsonMinifier();

let objs = [{
	prop1: 'test11',
	prop2: 'test12',
	subProp: {
		sub1: true,
		sub2: 35
	}
}, {
	prop1: 'test21',
	prop2: 'test22',
	subProp: {
		sub1: false,
		sub2: 'I AM THE PROP'
	}
}, {
	prop1: 'test31',
	prop2: 'test32',
	subProp: {
		sub1: 'sub sub sub',
		sub2: 'yup'
	}
}];

let result = json.minify(objs);

// results in
result = [
	['prop1', 'prop2', ['subProp', 'sub1', 'sub2']], //keys
	['test11', 'test12', [true, 35]], //values
	['test21', 'test22', [false, 'I AM THE PROP']],
	['test31', 'test32', ['sub sub sub', 'yup']]
];

// and
json.explode(result);

// results in the same objs array
