serialize
can.Observe.prototype.serialize
Serialize this object to something that can be passed to JSON.stringify
.
observe.serialize()
Get the serialized Object form of the observe. Serialized data is typically used to send back to a server.
o.serialize() //-> { name: 'Justin' }
Serialize currently returns the same data as [can.Observe.prototype.attrs]. However, in future versions, serialize will be able to return serialized data similar to can.Model. The following will work:
new Observe({time: new Date()})
.serialize() //-> { time: 1319666613663 }
Returns
{Object}
a JavaScript Object that can be
serialized with JSON.stringify
or other methods.
