# clean-yaml-object [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/tapjs/clean-yaml-object.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/tapjs/clean-yaml-object) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/tapjs/clean-yaml-object/badge.svg?branch=master&service=github)](https://coveralls.io/github/tapjs/clean-yaml-object?branch=master)
> Clean up an object prior to serialization.
Replaces circular references, pretty prints Buffers, and numerous other enhancements. Primarily designed to prepare Errors for serialization to JSON/YAML.
Extracted from [`node-tap`](https://github.com/tapjs/node-tap)
## Install
```
$ npm install --save clean-yaml-object
```
## Usage
```js
const cleanYamlObject = require('clean-yaml-object');
cleanYamlObject(new Error('foo'));
//=> {name: 'Error', message: 'foo', stack: ...}
```
## API
### cleanYamlObject(input, [filterFn])
Returns a deep copy of `input` that is suitable for serialization.
#### input
Type: `*`
Any object.
#### filterFn
Type: `callback(propertyName, isRoot, source, target)`
Optional filter callback. Returning `true` will cause the property to be copied. Otherwise it will be skipped
- `propertyName`: The property being copied.
- `isRoot`: `true` only if `source` is the top level object passed to `copyYamlObject`
- `source`: The source from which `source[propertyName]` will be copied.
- `target`: The target object.
