+# json-stable-stringify
+
+This is the same as https://github.com/substack/json-stable-stringify but it doesn't depend on libraries without licenses (jsonify).
+
+deterministic version of `JSON.stringify()` so you can get a consistent hash
+from stringified results
+
+You can also pass in a custom comparison function.

+
+# example
+
+``` js
+var stringify = require('json-stable-stringify');
+var obj = { c: 8, b: [{z:6,y:5,x:4},7], a: 3 };
+console.log(stringify(obj));
+```
+
+output:
+
+```
+{"a":3,"b":[{"x":4,"y":5,"z":6},7],"c":8}
+```
+
+# methods
+
+``` js
+var stringify = require('json-stable-stringify')
+```
+
+## var str = stringify(obj, opts)
+
+Return a deterministic stringified string `str` from the object `obj`.
+
+## options
+
+### cmp
+
+If `opts` is given, you can supply an `opts.cmp` to have a custom comparison
+function for object keys. Your function `opts.cmp` is called with these
+parameters:
+
+``` js
+opts.cmp({ key: akey, value: avalue }, { key: bkey, value: bvalue })
+```
+
+For example, to sort on the object key names in reverse order you could write:
+
+``` js
+var stringify = require('json-stable-stringify');
+
+var obj = { c: 8, b: [{z:6,y:5,x:4},7], a: 3 };
+var s = stringify(obj, function (a, b) {
+    return a.key < b.key ? 1 : -1;
+});
+console.log(s);
+```
+
+which results in the output string:
+
+```
+{"c":8,"b":[{"z":6,"y":5,"x":4},7],"a":3}
+```
+
+Or if you wanted to sort on the object values in reverse order, you could write:
+
+```
+var stringify = require('json-stable-stringify');
+
+var obj = { d: 6, c: 5, b: [{z:3,y:2,x:1},9], a: 10 };
+var s = stringify(obj, function (a, b) {
+    return a.value < b.value ? 1 : -1;
+});
+console.log(s);
+```
+
+which outputs:
+
+```
+{"d":6,"c":5,"b":[{"z":3,"y":2,"x":1},9],"a":10}
+```
+
+### space
+
+If you specify `opts.space`, it will indent the output for pretty-printing.
+Valid values are strings (e.g. `{space: \t}`) or a number of spaces
+(`{space: 3}`).
+
+For example:
+
+```js
+var obj = { b: 1, a: { foo: 'bar', and: [1, 2, 3] } };
+var s = stringify(obj, { space: '  ' });
+console.log(s);
+```
+
+which outputs:
+
+```
+{
+  "a": {
+    "and": [
+      1,
+      2,
+      3
+    ],
+    "foo": "bar"
+  },
+  "b": 1
+}
+```
+
+### replacer
+
+The replacer parameter is a function `opts.replacer(key, value)` that behaves
+the same as the replacer
+[from the core JSON object](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_native_JSON#The_replacer_parameter).
