Javascript / Chrome - How to copy an object from the webkit inspector as code

Question

I am doing a console.log statement in my javascript in order to log a javascript object. I\'m wondering if there\'s a way, once that\'s done - to copy that object as javascr

Answer 1

Using "Store as a Global Variable" works, but it only gets the final instance of the object, and not the moment the object is being logged (since you're likely wanting to compare changes to the object as they happen). To get the object at its exact point in time of being modified, I use this...

function logObject(object) {
    console.info(JSON.stringify(object).replace(/,/g, ",\n"));
}

Call it like so...

logObject(puzzle);

You may want to remove the .replace(/./g, ",\n") regex if your data happens to have comma's in it.
