- function in module ng
Overview
Serializes input into a JSON-formatted string. Properties with leading $$ characters will be stripped since AngularJS uses this notation internally.
Known Issues
The Safari browser throws a RangeError
instead of returning null
when it tries to stringify a Date
object with an invalid date value. The only reliable way to prevent this is to monkeypatch the Date.prototype.toJSON
method as follows:
var _DatetoJSON = Date.prototype.toJSON;
Date.prototype.toJSON = function() {
try {
return _DatetoJSON.call(this);
} catch(e) {
if (e instanceof RangeError) {
return null;
}
throw e;
}
};
