严格相等运算符将告诉您两个对象类型是否相等。然而,是否有一种方法来判断两个对象是否相等,就像Java中的哈希码值一样?

堆栈溢出问题JavaScript中有hashCode函数吗?类似于这个问题,但需要一个更学术的答案。上面的场景说明了为什么有必要有一个,我想知道是否有等效的解决方案。

当然,当我们在它的时候,我会抛出我自己对车轮的重新发明(我为辐条和使用的材料的数量感到自豪):

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var equals = function ( objectA, objectB ) {

        keysA,
        keysB;

    // Check if they are pointing at the same variable. If they are, no need to test further.
    if ( objectA === objectB ) {

    }

    // Check if they are the same type. If they are not, no need to test further.
    if ( typeof objectA !== typeof objectB ) {
        return false;
    }

    // Check what kind of variables they are to see what sort of comparison we should make.
    if ( typeof objectA === "object" ) {

                else {
                    return false;
                }
            }
            // If we are working with RegExps...
            else if ( objectA instanceof RegExp ) {
                // Return the results of a string comparison of the expression.
                return ( objectA.toString() === objectB.toString() );
            }
            // Else we are working with other types of objects...
            else {
                // Get the keys as arrays from both objects. This uses Object.keys, so no old browsers here.
                keysA = Object.keys( objectA );

                keysB = Object.keys( objectB );

                // Check the key arrays are the same length. If not, they cannot be the same.

它会尽可能快地返回false,但当然,对于一个差异嵌套很深的大对象,它可能不那么有效。在我自己的场景中,良好地处理嵌套数组非常重要。

希望它能帮助需要这种“轮子”的人。

其他回答

在Node.js中,你可以使用它的原生require("assert"). deepstrictequal。更多信息: http://nodejs.org/api/assert.html

例如:

var assert = require("assert");
assert.deepStrictEqual({a:1, b:2}, {a:1, b:3}); // will throw AssertionError

另一个返回true / false而不是返回错误的例子:

var assert = require("assert");

function deepEqual(a, b) {
    try {
      assert.deepEqual(a, b);
    } catch (error) {
      if (error.name === "AssertionError") {
        return false;
      }
      throw error;
    }
    return true;
};

虽然这个问题已经得到了充分的回答,但我还缺少一种方法:toJSON接口。

通常你想通过字符串化来比较object,因为这是最快的方法。但往往比较被认为是假的,因为性质的顺序。

const obj1 = {
  a: 1,
  b: 2,
  c: { 
    ca: 1,
    cb: 2
  }
}

const obj2 = {
  b: 2, // changed order with a
  a: 1,
  c: { 
    ca: 1,
    cb: 2
  }
}

JSON.stringify(obj1) === JSON.stringify(obj2) // false

显然,对象被认为是不同的,因为属性a和b的顺序不同。

要解决这个问题,可以实现toJSON接口,并定义一个确定性输出。

const obj1 = {
  a: 1,
  b: 2,
  c: { 
    ca: 1,
    cb: 2
  },
  toJSON() {
    return {
      a: this.a,
      b: this.b,
      c: { 
        ca: this.c.ca,
        cb: this.c.ca
      }
    }
  }
}

const obj2 = {
  b: 2,
  a: 1,
  c: { 
    ca: 1,
    cb: 2
  },
  toJSON() {
    return {
      a: this.a,
      b: this.b,
      c: { 
        ca: this.c.ca,
        cb: this.c.ca
      }
    }
  }
}

JSON.stringify(obj1) === JSON.stringify(obj2) // true

瞧:obj1和obj2的字符串表示被认为是相同的。

TIP

如果你没有直接生成对象的权限,你可以简单地附加toJSON函数:

obj1.toJSON = function() {
  return {
    a: this.a,
    b: this.b,
    c: { 
      ca: this.c.ca,
      cb: this.c.ca
    }
  }
}

obj2.toJSON = function() {
  return {
    a: this.a,
    b: this.b,
    c: { 
      ca: this.c.ca,
      cb: this.c.ca
    }
  }
}

JSON.stringify(obj1) === JSON.stringify(obj2) // true

为什么要重新发明轮子?试试Lodash吧。它有许多必须的函数,如isEqual()。

_.isEqual(object, other);

它将使用ECMAScript 5和本地优化(如果它们在浏览器中可用)强力检查每个键值——就像本页上的其他示例一样。

注意:以前这个答案推荐使用Underscore.js,但是lodash在修复bug和一致性解决问题方面做得更好。

另外一个选项是使用Ramda库的equals:

const c = {a: 1, b: 2};
const d = {b: 2, a: 1};
R.equals(c, d); //=> true

这是一个非常干净的CoffeeScript版本,你可以这样做:

Object::equals = (other) ->
  typeOf = Object::toString

  return false if typeOf.call(this) isnt typeOf.call(other)
  return `this == other` unless typeOf.call(other) is '[object Object]' or
                                typeOf.call(other) is '[object Array]'

  (return false unless this[key].equals other[key]) for key, value of this
  (return false if typeof this[key] is 'undefined') for key of other

  true

下面是测试:

  describe "equals", ->

    it "should consider two numbers to be equal", ->
      assert 5.equals(5)

    it "should consider two empty objects to be equal", ->
      assert {}.equals({})

    it "should consider two objects with one key to be equal", ->
      assert {a: "banana"}.equals {a: "banana"}

    it "should consider two objects with keys in different orders to be equal", ->
      assert {a: "banana", kendall: "garrus"}.equals {kendall: "garrus", a: "banana"}

    it "should consider two objects with nested objects to be equal", ->
      assert {a: {fruit: "banana"}}.equals {a: {fruit: "banana"}}

    it "should consider two objects with nested objects that are jumbled to be equal", ->
      assert {a: {a: "banana", kendall: "garrus"}}.equals {a: {kendall: "garrus", a: "banana"}}

    it "should consider two objects with arrays as values to be equal", ->
      assert {a: ["apple", "banana"]}.equals {a: ["apple", "banana"]}



    it "should not consider an object to be equal to null", ->
      assert !({a: "banana"}.equals null)

    it "should not consider two objects with different keys to be equal", ->
      assert !({a: "banana"}.equals {})

    it "should not consider two objects with different values to be equal", ->
      assert !({a: "banana"}.equals {a: "grapefruit"})
