Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

clone

build status

info badge

offers foolproof deep cloning of objects, arrays, numbers, strings etc. in JavaScript.

Installation

npm install clone

(It also works with browserify, ender or standalone.)

Example

var clone = require('clone');

var a, b;

a = { foo: { bar: 'baz' } };  // initial value of a

b = clone(a);                 // clone a -> b
a.foo.bar = 'foo';            // change a

console.log(a);               // show a
console.log(b);               // show b

This will print:

{ foo: { bar: 'foo' } }
{ foo: { bar: 'baz' } }

clone masters cloning simple objects (even with custom prototype), arrays, Date objects, and RegExp objects. Everything is cloned recursively, so that you can clone dates in arrays in objects, for example.

API

clone(val, circular, depth)

  • val -- the value that you want to clone, any type allowed

  • circular -- boolean

    Call clone with circular set to false if you are certain that obj contains no circular references. This will give better performance if needed. There is no error if undefined or null is passed as obj.

  • depth -- depth to which the object is to be cloned (optional, defaults to infinity)

clone.clonePrototype(obj)

  • obj -- the object that you want to clone

Does a prototype clone as described by Oran Looney.

Circular References

var a, b;

a = { hello: 'world' };

a.myself = a;
b = clone(a);

console.log(b);

This will print:

{ hello: "world", myself: [Circular] }

So, b.myself points to b, not a. Neat!

Test

npm test

Caveat

Some special objects like a socket or process.stdout/stderr are known to not be cloneable. If you find other objects that cannot be cloned, please open an issue.

Bugs and Issues

If you encounter any bugs or issues, feel free to open an issue at github or send me an email to [email protected]. I also always like to hear from you, if you’re using my code.
