deep-equal2

Node's assert.deepEqual() algorithm with constructor check

This module is around 5 times faster than wrapping assert.deepEqual() in a try/catch.

example

var equal = require('deep-equal2');
console.dir([
    equal(
        { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] },
        { a : [ 2, 3 ], b : [ 4 ] }
    ),
    equal(
        { x : 5, y : [6] },
        { x : 5, y : 6 }
    )
]);

example - with constructor check

var equal = require('deep-equal2');
console.dir([
    equal(
        { a : 'str', b: 10, c: [10, true], d: {k: [1121, 2323], d: Number} },
        { a : String, b: Number, c: [Number, Boolean] , d: {k: Array, d: 10} }
    )
]);

methods

var deepEqual = require('deep-equal2')

deepEqual(a, b)

Compare objects a and b, returning whether they are equal according to a recursive equality algorithm.
