# clone

[![build status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/pvorb/clone.svg)](http://travis-ci.org/pvorb/clone) [![downloads](https://img.shields.io/npm/dt/clone.svg)](http://npm-stat.com/charts.html?package=clone)

offers foolproof _deep cloning_ of objects, arrays, numbers, strings, maps,
sets, promises, etc. in JavaScript.

**XSS vulnerability detected**


## Installation

    npm install clone

(It also works with browserify, ender or standalone. You may want to use the
option `noParse` in browserify to reduce the resulting file size, since usually
`Buffer`s are not needed in browsers.)


## Example

~~~ javascript
var clone = require('clone');

var a, b;

a = { foo: { bar: 'baz' } };  // initial value of a

b = clone(a);                 // clone a -> b
a.foo.bar = 'foo';            // change a

console.log(a);               // show a
console.log(b);               // show b
~~~

This will print:

~~~ javascript
{ foo: { bar: 'foo' } }
{ foo: { bar: 'baz' } }
~~~

**clone** masters cloning simple objects (even with custom prototype), arrays,
Date objects, and RegExp objects. Everything is cloned recursively, so that you
can clone dates in arrays in objects, for example.


## API

`clone(val, circular, depth)`

  * `val` -- the value that you want to clone, any type allowed
  * `circular` -- boolean

    Call `clone` with `circular` set to `false` if you are certain that `obj`
    contains no circular references. This will give better performance if
    needed. There is no error if `undefined` or `null` is passed as `obj`.
  * `depth` -- depth to which the object is to be cloned (optional,
    defaults to infinity)
  * `prototype` -- sets the prototype to be used when cloning an object.
    (optional, defaults to parent prototype).
  * `includeNonEnumerable` -- set to `true` if the non-enumerable properties
    should be cloned as well. Non-enumerable properties on the prototype chain
    will be ignored. (optional, defaults to `false`)

`clone.clonePrototype(obj)`

  * `obj` -- the object that you want to clone

Does a prototype clone as
[described by Oran Looney](http://oranlooney.com/functional-javascript/).


## Circular References

~~~ javascript
var a, b;

a = { hello: 'world' };

a.myself = a;
b = clone(a);

console.log(b);
~~~

This will print:

~~~ javascript
{ hello: "world", myself: [Circular] }
~~~

So, `b.myself` points to `b`, not `a`. Neat!


## Test

    npm test

## Caveat

Some special objects like a socket or `process.stdout`/`stderr` are known to not
be cloneable. If you find other objects that cannot be cloned, please [open an
issue](https://github.com/pvorb/clone/issues/new).
