unjs/destr: 🚀 Faster, secure and convenient alternative for JSON.parse for arbitrary inputs

A faster, secure and convenient alternative for JSON.parse.

Install dependency:

# npm
npm i destr

# yarn
yarn add destr

# pnpm
pnpm i destr

Import into your Node.js project:

// ESM
import { destr, safeDestr } from "destr";

// CommonJS
const { destr, safeDestr } = require("destr");

import { destr, safeDestr } from "https://deno.land/x/destr/src/index.ts";

console.log(destr('{ "deno": "yay" }'));

const obj = JSON.parse("{}"); // obj type is any

const obj = destr("{}"); // obj type is unknown by default

const obj = destr<MyInterface>("{}"); // obj is well-typed

// Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0
JSON.parse();

// undefined
destr();

// Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token T in JSON at position 0
JSON.parse("TRUE");

// true
destr("TRUE");

// Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token s in JSON at position 0
JSON.parse("salam");

// "salam"
destr("salam");

Note: This fails in safe/strict mode with safeDestr.

const input = '{ "user": { "__proto__": { "isAdmin": true } } }';

// { user: { __proto__: { isAdmin: true } } }
JSON.parse(input);

// { user: {} }
destr(input);

When using safeDestr it will throw an error if the input is not a valid JSON string or parsing fails. (non string values and built-ins will be still returned as-is)

// Returns "[foo"
destr("[foo");

// Throws an error
safeDestr("[foo");

destr is faster generally for arbitrary inputs but also sometimes little bit slower than JSON.parse when parsing a valid JSON string mainly because of transform to avoid prototype pollution which can lead to serious security issues if not being sanitized. In the other words, destr is better when input is not always a JSON string or from untrusted source like request body.
