This does exactly what it says on the tin. It deep-compares objects, and returns what a javascript beginner would expect objectA === objectB to return
##INSTALL
In your repository, run:
npm install --save deep-equals
##USE
In your code:
const deepEquals = require ( 'deep-equals' );
const objectA = {
a: 'b',
c: {
d: 'e',
f: {
g: [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ],
h: new Date ( 0 ),
i: 3
}
}
};
const objectB = {
a: 'b',
c: {
d: 'e',
f: {
g: [ 1, 2, 3, 5, 4 ],
h: new Date ( 0 ),
i: 3
}
}
};
if ( deepEquals ( objectA, objectB ) ) {
console.log ( 'They are the same' );
} else {
console.log ( 'They are not the same' );
}
Do note that deep-equals treats array order as insignificant, as demonstrated in the example above.
