qclone

the fastest function for deep clone js objects compatible with es6

*according to the author, this cloning script is the fastest in the industry(watch benchmarks)

Install

npm install --save qclone

Usage

const qclone = require('qclone');

or connect separate modules:

const qclone = require('qclone/qcloneStrictCircular');

const newCloneObj = qclone({ foo: 1 });

Features

  • support for all new classes ES6;
  • very quickly clone(qclone);
  • correctly clone(qcloneStrict / qcloneStrictCircular);
  • support circular objects(qcloneCircular / qcloneStrictCircular);
  • library has no dependencies;

The library contains four cloning functions: qclone, qcloneStrict, qcloneCircular, qcloneStrictCircular.

For more than 90% of cases, the algorithm is suitable - qclone. If you lack it, for example, for cyclic objects or strict copying, you can use the following algorithms:

  • qcloneStrict - for strict cloning(non-enumerable and Symbol properties);
  • qcloneCircular - for cyclic objects (without strict cloning);
  • qcloneStrictCircular - for strict cloning of cyclic objects;

*The next two tests below clone the keys for the Map class if those are objects. I do not consider this behavior to be correct, since the work for such keys is based on references and not values (most cloning libraries support my opinion).
