How to use

1. Import the mount function from the module

import { mount } from "object-visualizer";

2. Query the HTML element to inject the JSON, e.g. <pre id="app"></pre>

//Vanilla JS
const preEl = document.getElementById("app");
//Vanilla JS new dom api
const preEl = document.querySelector("#app");
//jQuery
const preEl = $("#app");

3. Have your data on a variable

const data = {};

Optional: To make DOM reactivity, just wrap your data via reactive function before mount it.

import { reactive } from "object-visualizer";

const data = reactive({});

4. Use mount function

mount(data, preEl);

5. Thats it!!

Options

// path will be string[]
const options = {
  getKeys: (object, path) => {
    return Object.keys(object).sort();
  },
  expandOnCreatedAndUpdated: (path) => {
    return true;
  },
};

mount(data, preEl, options);
