メソッドでJSON文字列をオブジェクトに変換する

これを行うには、JSON文字列（およびコンストラクタのプロトタイプを作成する際に、 “replacer”関数または
toJSON 関数を解析するときに “reviver”関数を使用する必要があります）。 セクション15.12.2 と
15.12.3 を参照してください。ご使用の環境がまだネイティブJSON解析をサポートしていない場合は、 Crockfordのパーサーの1つを使用できます（CrockfordはJSON）もサポートしています。

ここでは、ES5準拠のブラウザ（またはES5の動作をエミュレートするライブラリ）（ライブコピー、ChromeまたはFirefoxで動作するライブラリ、または類似）、より一般化されたソリューションの例を見てください。

// Our constructor function
function Foo(val) {
  this.value = val;
}
Foo.prototype.nifty = "I'm the nifty inherited property.";
Foo.prototype.toJSON = function() {
  return "/Foo(" + this.value + ")/";
};

// An object with a property, `foo`, referencing an instance
// created by that constructor function, and another `bar`
// which is just a string
var obj = {
  foo: new Foo(42),
  bar: "I'm bar"
};

// Use it
display("obj.foo.value = " + obj.foo.value);
display("obj.foo.nifty = " + obj.foo.nifty);
display("obj.bar = " + obj.bar);

// Stringify it with a replacer:
var str = JSON.stringify(obj);

// Show that
display("The string: " + str);

// Re-create it with use of a "reviver" function
var obj2 = JSON.parse(str, function(key, value) {
  if (typeof value === "string" &&
      value.substring(0, 5) === "/Foo(" &&
      value.substr(-2) == ")/"
     ) {
    return new Foo(value.substring(5, value.length - 2));
  }
  return value;
});

// Use the result
display("obj2.foo.value = " + obj2.foo.value);
display("obj2.foo.nifty = " + obj2.foo.nifty);
display("obj2.bar = " + obj2.bar);

Foo.prototype の toJSON と、
JSON.parse に渡す関数に注目してください。

しかし、そこでの問題は、復活祭が Foo
コンストラクタに緊密に結合されていることです。代わりに、コンストラクタ関数が fromJSON
（または類似の）関数をサポートできる汎用フレームワークをコード内に採用することができます。

次に、 ctor プロパティと data
プロパティを検索し、見つかった場合は ctor.fromJSON
を呼び出し、受信した完全な値（実例）：

// A generic "smart reviver" function.
// Looks for object values with a `ctor` property and
// a `data` property. If it finds them, and finds a matching
// constructor that has a `fromJSON` property on it, it hands
// off to that `fromJSON` fuunction, passing in the value.
function Reviver(key, value) {
  var ctor;

  if (typeof value === "object" &&
      typeof value.ctor === "string" &&
      typeof value.data !== "undefined") {
    ctor = Reviver.constructors[value.ctor] || window[value.ctor];
    if (typeof ctor === "function" &&
        typeof ctor.fromJSON === "function") {
      return ctor.fromJSON(value);
    }
  }
  return value;
}
Reviver.constructors = {};//A list of constructors the smart reviver should know about  

toJSON 関数と fromJSON
関数で共通ロジックを繰り返さないようにするには、汎用バージョンを使用できます。

// A generic "toJSON" function that creates the data expected
// by Reviver.
// `ctorName`  The name of the constructor to use to revive it
// `obj`       The object being serialized
// `keys`      (Optional) Array of the properties to serialize,
//             if not given then all of the objects "own" properties
//             that don't have function values will be serialized.
//             (Note: If you list a property in `keys`, it will be serialized
//             regardless of whether it's an "own" property.)
// Returns:    The structure (which will then be turned into a string
//             as part of the JSON.stringify algorithm)
function Generic_toJSON(ctorName, obj, keys) {
  var data, index, key;

  if (!keys) {
    keys = Object.keys(obj);//Only "own" properties are included
  }

  data = {};
  for (index = 0; index < keys.length; ++index) {
    key = keys[index];
    data[key] = obj[key];
  }
  return {ctor: ctorName, data: data};
}

// A generic "fromJSON" function for use with Reviver: Just calls the
// constructor function with no arguments, then applies all of the
// key/value pairs from the raw data to the instance. Only useful for
// constructors that can be reasonably called without arguments!
// `ctor`      The constructor to call
// `data`      The data to apply
// Returns:    The object
function Generic_fromJSON(ctor, data) {
  var obj, name;

  obj = new ctor();
  for (name in data) {
    obj[name] = data[name];
  }
  return obj;
}

ここでの利点は、シリアライズとデシリアライズの方法について、特定の「型」（より良い用語がないため）の実装を延期することです。だから、ジェネリックを使うだけの
“タイプ”があるかもしれません：

// `Foo` is a constructor function that integrates with Reviver
// but doesn't need anything but the generic handling.
function Foo() {
}
Foo.prototype.nifty = "I'm the nifty inherited property.";
Foo.prototype.spiffy = "I'm the spiffy inherited property.";
Foo.prototype.toJSON = function() {
  return Generic_toJSON("Foo", this);
};
Foo.fromJSON = function(value) {
  return Generic_fromJSON(Foo, value.data);
};
Reviver.constructors.Foo = Foo;

…または何らかの理由で何かもっと慣習をしなければならないもの：

// `Bar` is a constructor function that integrates with Reviver
// but has its own custom JSON handling for whatever reason.
function Bar(value, count) {
  this.value = value;
  this.count = count;
}
Bar.prototype.nifty = "I'm the nifty inherited property.";
Bar.prototype.spiffy = "I'm the spiffy inherited property.";
Bar.prototype.toJSON = function() {
 //Bar's custom handling *only* serializes the `value` property
 //and the `spiffy` or `nifty` props if necessary.
  var rv = {
    ctor: "Bar",
    data: {
      value: this.value,
      count: this.count
    }
  };
  if (this.hasOwnProperty("nifty")) {
    rv.data.nifty = this.nifty;
  }
  if (this.hasOwnProperty("spiffy")) {
    rv.data.spiffy = this.spiffy;
  }
  return rv;
};
Bar.fromJSON = function(value) {
 //Again custom handling, for whatever reason Bar doesn't
 //want to serialize/deserialize properties it doesn't know
 //about.
  var d = value.data;
      b = new Bar(d.value, d.count);
  if (d.spiffy) {
    b.spiffy = d.spiffy;
  }
  if (d.nifty) {
    b.nifty = d.nifty;
  }
  return b;
};
Reviver.constructors.Bar = Bar;

Foo と Bar
が期待どおりに動作することをテストする方法は次のとおりです（ライブコピー ）：

// An object with `foo` and `bar` properties:
var before = {
  foo: new Foo(),
  bar: new Bar("testing", 42)
};
before.foo.custom = "I'm a custom property";
before.foo.nifty = "Updated nifty";
before.bar.custom = "I'm a custom property";//Won't get serialized!
before.bar.spiffy = "Updated spiffy";

// Use it
display("before.foo.nifty = " + before.foo.nifty);
display("before.foo.spiffy = " + before.foo.spiffy);
display("before.foo.custom = " + before.foo.custom + " (" + typeof before.foo.custom + ")");
display("before.bar.value = " + before.bar.value + " (" + typeof before.bar.value + ")");
display("before.bar.count = " + before.bar.count + " (" + typeof before.bar.count + ")");
display("before.bar.nifty = " + before.bar.nifty);
display("before.bar.spiffy = " + before.bar.spiffy);
display("before.bar.custom = " + before.bar.custom + " (" + typeof before.bar.custom + ")");

// Stringify it with a replacer:
var str = JSON.stringify(before);

// Show that
display("The string: " + str);

// Re-create it with use of a "reviver" function
var after = JSON.parse(str, Reviver);

// Use the result
display("after.foo.nifty = " + after.foo.nifty);
display("after.foo.spiffy = " + after.foo.spiffy);
display("after.foo.custom = " + after.foo.custom + " (" + typeof after.foo.custom + ")");
display("after.bar.value = " + after.bar.value + " (" + typeof after.bar.value + ")");
display("after.bar.count = " + after.bar.count + " (" + typeof after.bar.count + ")");
display("after.bar.nifty = " + after.bar.nifty);
display("after.bar.spiffy = " + after.bar.spiffy);
display("after.bar.custom = " + after.bar.custom + " (" + typeof after.bar.custom + ")");

display("(Note that after.bar.custom is undefined because Bar specifically leaves it out.)");
