How can you compare to objects with same properties cause we know both the objects all though same values but sits at different memory location he...
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
Nice way but small problem with it is if the object aren’t order the same way you gonna get false
Unlike lodash isEqual that check for the key itself
You can check if object are similar by go our there keys and if you dont find something it not equal
Agreed, one should use a utility like lodash or underscore for this. Or write your own recursive function and use Object.keys.
To expand on what I believe Tal means regarding ordering --
An object's keys are ordered in the same order they were inserted (unless the keys look like numbers, in which case they're ascending)
Therefore:
JSON.stringify({a:1,b:2}) == JSON.stringify({b:2,a:1}) // false
ya thanks you very much
I disagree. I wouldn't want to import a library to check such small thing. I can write a small function that recursively iterates and compares values of the properties.
Ya it depend if you use but the main concepts here its to use something more reliable then json strigify
And lodash is pretty small library
Agree, but partially. An object is not a data structure in which an order is defined, right? Not sure if that would be a concern when comparing JSON objects.
Not a reliable method bro! also if the json is too huge, the good bye performance!
Yup you are right this is just for fun question not to be used in production 😜
Notice that by using JSON.stringify the order of the fields matter…
Yup it does
Stringify is useless without replacer and reviver to compare objects.
As you all can see in the end I have a stackoverflow link so refer that for similar discussion with some solutions as well.
