# pretty-format
Stringify any JavaScript value.
- Serialize built-in JavaScript types.
- Serialize application-specific data types with built-in or user-defined plugins.
## Installation
```sh
$ yarn add pretty-format
```
## Usage
```js
const prettyFormat = require('pretty-format'); // CommonJS
```
```js
import prettyFormat from 'pretty-format'; // ES2015 modules
```
```js
const val = {object: {}};
val.circularReference = val;
val[Symbol('foo')] = 'foo';
val.map = new Map([['prop', 'value']]);
val.array = [-0, Infinity, NaN];
console.log(prettyFormat(val));
/*
Object {
"array": Array [
-0,
Infinity,
NaN,
],
"circularReference": [Circular],
"map": Map {
"prop" => "value",
},
"object": Object {},
Symbol(foo): "foo",
}
*/
```
## Usage with options
```js
function onClick() {}
console.log(prettyFormat(onClick));
/*
[Function onClick]
*/
const options = {
printFunctionName: false,
};
console.log(prettyFormat(onClick, options));
/*
[Function]
*/
```

| key | type | default | description |
| :------------------ | :-------- | :--------- | :------------------------------------------------------ |
| `callToJSON` | `boolean` | `true` | call `toJSON` method (if it exists) on objects |
| `escapeRegex` | `boolean` | `false` | escape special characters in regular expressions |
| `escapeString` | `boolean` | `true` | escape special characters in strings |
| `highlight` | `boolean` | `false` | highlight syntax with colors in terminal (some plugins) |
| `indent` | `number` | `2` | spaces in each level of indentation |
| `maxDepth` | `number` | `Infinity` | levels to print in arrays, objects, elements, and so on |
| `min` | `boolean` | `false` | minimize added space: no indentation nor line breaks |
| `plugins` | `array` | `[]` | plugins to serialize application-specific data types |
| `printFunctionName` | `boolean` | `true` | include or omit the name of a function |
| `theme` | `object` | | colors to highlight syntax in terminal |
Property values of `theme` are from [ansi-styles colors](https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles#colors)
```js
const DEFAULT_THEME = {
comment: 'gray',
content: 'reset',
prop: 'yellow',
tag: 'cyan',
value: 'green',
};
```
## Usage with plugins
The `pretty-format` package provides some built-in plugins, including:
- `ReactElement` for elements from `react`
- `ReactTestComponent` for test objects from `react-test-renderer`
```js
// CommonJS
const prettyFormat = require('pretty-format');
const ReactElement = prettyFormat.plugins.ReactElement;
const ReactTestComponent = prettyFormat.plugins.ReactTestComponent;
const React = require('react');
const renderer = require('react-test-renderer');
```
```js
// ES2015 modules and destructuring assignment
import prettyFormat from 'pretty-format';
const {ReactElement, ReactTestComponent} = prettyFormat.plugins;
import React from 'react';
import renderer from 'react-test-renderer';
```
```js
const onClick = () => {};
const element = React.createElement('button', {onClick}, 'Hello World');
const formatted1 = prettyFormat(element, {
plugins: [ReactElement],
printFunctionName: false,
});
const formatted2 = prettyFormat(renderer.create(element).toJSON(), {
plugins: [ReactTestComponent],
printFunctionName: false,
});
/*
<button
onClick=[Function]
>
Hello World
</button>
*/
```
## Usage in Jest
For snapshot tests, Jest uses `pretty-format` with options that include some of its built-in plugins. For this purpose, plugins are also known as **snapshot serializers**.
To serialize application-specific data types, you can add modules to `devDependencies` of a project, and then:
In an **individual** test file, you can add a module as follows. It precedes any modules from Jest configuration.
```js
import serializer from 'my-serializer-module';
expect.addSnapshotSerializer(serializer);
// tests which have `expect(value).toMatchSnapshot()` assertions
```
For **all** test files, you can specify modules in Jest configuration. They precede built-in plugins for React, HTML, and Immutable.js data types. For example, in a `package.json` file:
```json
{
"jest": {
"snapshotSerializers": ["my-serializer-module"]
}
}
```
## Writing plugins
A plugin is a JavaScript object.
If `options` has a `plugins` array: for the first plugin whose `test(val)` method returns a truthy value, then `prettyFormat(val, options)` returns the result from either:
- `serialize(val, …)` method of the **improved** interface (available in **version 21** or later)
- `print(val, …)` method of the **original** interface (if plugin does not have `serialize` method)
### test
Write `test` so it can receive `val` argument of any type. To serialize **objects** which have certain properties, then a guarded expression like `val != null && …` or more concise `val && …` prevents the following errors:
- `TypeError: Cannot read property 'whatever' of null`
- `TypeError: Cannot read property 'whatever' of undefined`
For example, `test` method of built-in `ReactElement` plugin:
```js
const elementSymbol = Symbol.for('react.element');
const test = val => val && val.$$typeof === elementSymbol;
```
Pay attention to efficiency in `test` because `pretty-format` calls it often.
### serialize
The **improved** interface is available in **version 21** or later.
Write `serialize` to return a string, given the arguments:
- `val` which “passed the test”
- unchanging `config` object: derived from `options`
- current `indentation` string: concatenate to `indent` from `config`
- current `depth` number: compare to `maxDepth` from `config`
- current `refs` array: find circular references in objects
- `printer` callback function: serialize children
### config
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
| key | type | description |
| :------------------ | :-------- | :------------------------------------------------------ |
| `callToJSON` | `boolean` | call `toJSON` method (if it exists) on objects |
| `colors` | `Object` | escape codes for colors to highlight syntax |
| `escapeRegex` | `boolean` | escape special characters in regular expressions |
| `escapeString` | `boolean` | escape special characters in strings |
| `indent` | `string` | spaces in each level of indentation |
| `maxDepth` | `number` | levels to print in arrays, objects, elements, and so on |
| `min` | `boolean` | minimize added space: no indentation nor line breaks |
| `plugins` | `array` | plugins to serialize application-specific data types |
| `printFunctionName` | `boolean` | include or omit the name of a function |
| `spacingInner` | `strong` | spacing to separate items in a list |
| `spacingOuter` | `strong` | spacing to enclose a list of items |
Each property of `colors` in `config` corresponds to a property of `theme` in `options`:
- the key is the same (for example, `tag`)
- the value in `colors` is a object with `open` and `close` properties whose values are escape codes from [ansi-styles](https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles) for the color value in `theme` (for example, `'cyan'`)
Some properties in `config` are derived from `min` in `options`:
- `spacingInner` and `spacingOuter` are **newline** if `min` is `false`
- `spacingInner` is **space** and `spacingOuter` is **empty string** if `min` is `true`
### Example of serialize and test
This plugin is a pattern you can apply to serialize composite data types. Of course, `pretty-format` does not need a plugin to serialize arrays :)
```js
// We reused more code when we factored out a function for child items
// that is independent of depth, name, and enclosing punctuation (see below).
const SEPARATOR = ',';
function serializeItems(items, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) {
if (items.length === 0) {
return '';
}
const indentationItems = indentation + config.indent;
return (
config.spacingOuter +
items
.map(
item =>
indentationItems +
printer(item, config, indentationItems, depth, refs), // callback
)
.join(SEPARATOR + config.spacingInner) +
(config.min ? '' : SEPARATOR) + // following the last item
config.spacingOuter +
indentation
);
}
const plugin = {
test(val) {
return Array.isArray(val);
},
serialize(array, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) {
const name = array.constructor.name;
return ++depth > config.maxDepth
? '[' + name + ']'
: (config.min ? '' : name + ' ') +
'[' +
serializeItems(array, config, indentation, depth, refs, printer) +
']';
},
};
```
```js
const val = {
filter: 'completed',
items: [
{
text: 'Write test',
completed: true,
},
{
text: 'Write serialize',
completed: true,
},
],
};
```
```js
console.log(
prettyFormat(val, {
plugins: [plugin],
}),
);
/*
Object {
"filter": "completed",
"items": Array [
Object {
"completed": true,
"text": "Write test",
},
Object {
"completed": true,
"text": "Write serialize",
},
],
}
*/
```
```js
console.log(
prettyFormat(val, {
indent: 4,
plugins: [plugin],
}),
);
/*
Object {
"filter": "completed",
"items": Array [
Object {
"completed": true,
"text": "Write test",
},
Object {
"completed": true,
"text": "Write serialize",
},
],
}
*/
```
```js
console.log(
prettyFormat(val, {
maxDepth: 1,
plugins: [plugin],
}),
);
/*
Object {
"filter": "completed",
"items": [Array],
}
*/
```
```js
console.log(
prettyFormat(val, {
min: true,
plugins: [plugin],
}),
);
/*
{"filter": "completed", "items": [{"completed": true, "text": "Write test"}, {"completed": true, "text": "Write serialize"}]}
*/
```
### print
The **original** interface is adequate for plugins:
- that **do not** depend on options other than `highlight` or `min`
- that **do not** depend on `depth` or `refs` in recursive traversal, and
- if values either
- do **not** require indentation, or
- do **not** occur as children of JavaScript data structures (for example, array)
Write `print` to return a string, given the arguments:
- `val` which “passed the test”
- current `printer(valChild)` callback function: serialize children
- current `indenter(lines)` callback function: indent lines at the next level
- unchanging `config` object: derived from `options`
- unchanging `colors` object: derived from `options`
The 3 properties of `config` are `min` in `options` and:
- `spacing` and `edgeSpacing` are **newline** if `min` is `false`
- `spacing` is **space** and `edgeSpacing` is **empty string** if `min` is `true`
Each property of `colors` corresponds to a property of `theme` in `options`:
- the key is the same (for example, `tag`)
- the value in `colors` is a object with `open` and `close` properties whose values are escape codes from [ansi-styles](https://github.com/chalk/ansi-styles) for the color value in `theme` (for example, `'cyan'`)
### Example of print and test
This plugin prints functions with the **number of named arguments** excluding rest argument.
```js
const plugin = {
print(val) {
return `[Function ${val.name || 'anonymous'} ${val.length}]`;
},
test(val) {
return typeof val === 'function';
},
};
```
```js
const val = {
onClick(event) {},
render() {},
};
prettyFormat(val, {
plugins: [plugin],
});
/*
Object {
"onClick": [Function onClick 1],
"render": [Function render 0],
}
*/
prettyFormat(val);
/*
Object {
"onClick": [Function onClick],
"render": [Function render],
}
*/
```
This plugin **ignores** the `printFunctionName` option. That limitation of the original `print` interface is a reason to use the improved `serialize` interface, described above.
```js
prettyFormat(val, {
plugins: [pluginOld],
printFunctionName: false,
});
/*
Object {
"onClick": [Function onClick 1],
"render": [Function render 0],
}
*/
prettyFormat(val, {
printFunctionName: false,
});
/*
Object {
"onClick": [Function],
"render": [Function],
}
*/
```
