deep-equal Version Badge

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

varequal=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

vardeepEqual=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.

install

With npm do:

npm install deep-equal
