# clone [](http://travis-ci.org/pvorb/clone) [](http://npm-stat.com/charts.html?package=clone) offers foolproof _deep cloning_ of objects, arrays, numbers, strings, maps, sets, promises, etc. in JavaScript. **XSS vulnerability detected** ## Installation npm install clone (It also works with browserify, ender or standalone. You may want to use the option `noParse` in browserify to reduce the resulting file size, since usually `Buffer`s are not needed in browsers.) ## Example ~~~ javascript var clone = require('clone'); var a, b; a = { foo: { bar: 'baz' } }; // initial value of a b = clone(a); // clone a -> b a.foo.bar = 'foo'; // change a console.log(a); // show a console.log(b); // show b ~~~ This will print: ~~~ javascript { foo: { bar: 'foo' } } { foo: { bar: 'baz' } } ~~~ **clone** masters cloning simple objects (even with custom prototype), arrays, Date objects, and RegExp objects. Everything is cloned recursively, so that you can clone dates in arrays in objects, for example. ## API `clone(val, circular, depth)` * `val` -- the value that you want to clone, any type allowed * `circular` -- boolean Call `clone` with `circular` set to `false` if you are certain that `obj` contains no circular references. This will give better performance if needed. There is no error if `undefined` or `null` is passed as `obj`. * `depth` -- depth to which the object is to be cloned (optional, defaults to infinity) * `prototype` -- sets the prototype to be used when cloning an object. (optional, defaults to parent prototype). * `includeNonEnumerable` -- set to `true` if the non-enumerable properties should be cloned as well. Non-enumerable properties on the prototype chain will be ignored. (optional, defaults to `false`) `clone.clonePrototype(obj)` * `obj` -- the object that you want to clone Does a prototype clone as [described by Oran Looney](http://oranlooney.com/functional-javascript/). ## Circular References ~~~ javascript var a, b; a = { hello: 'world' }; a.myself = a; b = clone(a); console.log(b); ~~~ This will print: ~~~ javascript { hello: "world", myself: [Circular] } ~~~ So, `b.myself` points to `b`, not `a`. Neat! ## Test npm test ## Changelog ### v2.1.2 #### 2018-03-21 - Use `Buffer.allocUnsafe()` on Node >= 4.5.0 (contributed by @ChALkeR) ### v2.1.1 #### 2017-03-09 - Fix build badge in README - Add support for cloning Maps and Sets on Internet Explorer ### v2.1.0 #### 2016-11-22 - Add support for cloning Errors - Exclude non-enumerable symbol-named object properties from cloning - Add option to include non-enumerable own properties of objects ### v2.0.0 #### 2016-09-28 - Add support for cloning ES6 Maps, Sets, Promises, and Symbols ### v1.0.3 #### 2017-11-08 - Close XSS vulnerability in the NPM package, which included the file `test-apart-ctx.html`. This vulnerability was disclosed by Juho Nurminen of 2NS - Second Nature Security. ### v1.0.2 (deprecated) #### 2015-03-25 - Fix call on getRegExpFlags - Refactor utilities - Refactor test suite ### v1.0.1 (deprecated) #### 2015-03-04 - Fix nodeunit version - Directly call getRegExpFlags ### v1.0.0 (deprecated) #### 2015-02-10 - Improve browser support - Improve browser testability - Move helper methods to private namespace ## Caveat Some special objects like a socket or `process.stdout`/`stderr` are known to not be cloneable. If you find other objects that cannot be cloned, please [open an issue](https://github.com/pvorb/clone/issues/new). ## Bugs and Issues If you encounter any bugs or issues, feel free to [open an issue at github](https://github.com/pvorb/clone/issues) or send me an email to <paul@vorba.ch>. I also always like to hear from you, if you’re using my code. ## License Copyright © 2011-2016 [Paul Vorbach](https://paul.vorba.ch/) and [contributors](https://github.com/pvorb/clone/graphs/contributors).
