Getting Started

Installation

Choose your preferred package manager:

yarn

$ yarn add php-serialize

Basic Usage

import { serialize, unserialize } from 'php-serialize'

// Serialize data
const data = {
  name: 'John Doe',
  age: 30,
  hobbies: ['reading', 'coding']
}
const serialized = serialize(data)

// Unserialize data
const unserialized = unserialize(serialized)
console.log(unserialized) // Original object

Examples

Serializable Objects

class User {
  constructor({ name, age }) {
    this.name = name
    this.age = age
  }
  serialize() {
    return JSON.stringify({ name: this.name, age: this.age })
  }
  unserialize(rawData) {
    const { name, age } = JSON.parse(rawData)
    this.name = name
    this.age = age
  }
}

const user = new User({ name: 'Steel Brain', age: 17 })
const serialized = serialize(user)

// Unserialize with class mapping
const unserialized = unserialize(serialized, { User })
console.log(unserialized instanceof User) // true

Advanced Usage

// Custom namespace mapping
const serializedForNamespace = serialize(user, {
  'MyApp\User': User,
})

// Using different encoding options
const binaryData = serialize(data, {}, { encoding: 'binary' })
const utf8Data = serialize(data, {}, { encoding: 'utf8' })

// Strict mode unserialize
const strict = unserialize(serialized, {}, { strict: true })
