If

console.log(JSON.stringify(object));

结果是

TypeError：循环对象值

然后，您可能想要这样打印：

var output = '';
for (property in object) {
  output += property + ': ' + object[property]+'; ';
}
console.log(output);

var a={b:"b"};
a.a=a;
JSON.stringify(preventCircularJson(a));

评估结果为：

"{"b":"b","a":"CIRCULAR_REFERENCE_REMOVED"}"

具有以下功能：

/**
 * Traverses a javascript object, and deletes all circular values
 * @param source object to remove circular references from
 * @param censoredMessage optional: what to put instead of censored values
 * @param censorTheseItems should be kept null, used in recursion
 * @returns {undefined}
 */
function preventCircularJson(source, censoredMessage, censorTheseItems) {
    //init recursive value if this is the first call
    censorTheseItems = censorTheseItems || [source];
    //default if none is specified
    censoredMessage = censoredMessage || "CIRCULAR_REFERENCE_REMOVED";
    //values that have allready apeared will be placed here:
    var recursiveItems = {};
    //initaite a censored clone to return back
    var ret = {};
    //traverse the object:
    for (var key in source) {
        var value = source[key]
        if (typeof value == "object") {
            //re-examine all complex children again later:
            recursiveItems[key] = value;
        } else {
            //simple values copied as is
            ret[key] = value;
        }
    }
    //create list of values to censor:
    var censorChildItems = [];
    for (var key in recursiveItems) {
        var value = source[key];
        //all complex child objects should not apear again in children:
        censorChildItems.push(value);
    }
    //censor all circular values
    for (var key in recursiveItems) {
        var value = source[key];
        var censored = false;
        censorTheseItems.forEach(function (item) {
            if (item === value) {
                censored = true;
            }
        });
        if (censored) {
            //change circular values to this
            value = censoredMessage;
        } else {
            //recursion:
            value = preventCircularJson(value, censoredMessage, censorChildItems.concat(censorTheseItems));
        }
        ret[key] = value

    }

    return ret;
}

这里有一个解决方案：

仅删除循环（而不是所有重复的对象引用，到目前为止这里发布的大多数解决方案也是如此），不是不必要的冗长，速度快，不需要任何库依赖关系。

function replaceCycles(obj, replacement = undefined, seen = new WeakSet()) {
  if (typeof obj === 'object')
    if (seen.has(obj))
      return replacement 
    else {
      seen.add(obj)
      const newObj = {}
      for (const key in obj)
        newObj[key] = replaceCycles(obj[key], replacement, seen)
      seen.delete(obj)
      return newObj
    }
  else
    return obj
}

用法：

const a = {
  b: 'v1',
  c: {
    d: 'v2'
  }
}

a.e = a.c
a.c.f = a.c

console.log(JSON.stringify(replaceCycles(a, '[CYCLE]')))

输出：

"{'b':'v1','c':{'d':'v2','f':'[CYCLE]'},'e':{'d':'v2','f':'[CYCLE]'}}"

循环引用时，此代码将失败：

    JSON.stringify(circularReference);
// TypeError: cyclic object value

使用以下代码：

 const getCircularReplacer = () => {
  const seen = new WeakSet();
  return (key, value) => {
    if (typeof value === "object" && value !== null) {
      if (seen.has(value)) {
        return;
      }
      seen.add(value);
    }
    return value;
  };
};

JSON.stringify(circularReference, getCircularReplacer());

当你不知道所有循环引用的键时，对于未来搜索这个问题解决方案的谷歌用户，你可以使用JSON.stringify函数的包装器来排除循环引用。参见示例脚本https://gist.github.com/4653128.

解决方案本质上归结为在数组中保留对先前打印对象的引用，并在返回值之前在替换函数中检查该引用。它比仅排除循环引用更具限制性，因为它还排除了两次打印对象的可能性，其副作用之一是避免循环引用。

包装示例：

function stringifyOnce(obj, replacer, indent){
    var printedObjects = [];
    var printedObjectKeys = [];

    function printOnceReplacer(key, value){
        var printedObjIndex = false;
        printedObjects.forEach(function(obj, index){
            if(obj===value){
                printedObjIndex = index;
            }
        });

        if(printedObjIndex && typeof(value)=="object"){
            return "(see " + value.constructor.name.toLowerCase() + " with key " + printedObjectKeys[printedObjIndex] + ")";
        }else{
            var qualifiedKey = key || "(empty key)";
            printedObjects.push(value);
            printedObjectKeys.push(qualifiedKey);
            if(replacer){
                return replacer(key, value);
            }else{
                return value;
            }
        }
    }
    return JSON.stringify(obj, printOnceReplacer, indent);
}

根据其他答案，我最终得到以下代码。它可以很好地处理循环引用、带有自定义构造函数的对象。

从要序列化的给定对象，

缓存遍历对象时遇到的所有对象，并为每个对象分配一个唯一的hashID（自动递增的数字也有效）找到循环引用后，将新对象中的字段标记为循环，并将原始对象的hashID存储为属性。
