How to print object array in JavaScript?

I have created an object array in JavaScript. How can I print the object array in the browser window, similar to print_r function in PHP?

var lineChartData = [{
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 2),
            value: 5
        }, {
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 25),
            value: 30
        }, {
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 26),
            value: 72,
            customBullet: "images/redstar.png"
        }];

Simply stringify your object and assign it to the innerHTML of an element of your choice.

yourContainer.innerHTML = JSON.stringify(lineChartData);

If you want something prettier, do

yourContainer.innerHTML = JSON.stringify(lineChartData, null, 4);

var lineChartData = [{
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 2),
            value: 5
        }, {
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 25),
            value: 30
        }, {
            date: new Date(2009, 10, 26),
            value: 72,
            customBullet: "images/redstar.png"
        }];

document.getElementById("whereToPrint").innerHTML = JSON.stringify(lineChartData, null, 4);

<pre id="whereToPrint"></pre>

But if you just do this in order to debug, then you'd better use the console with console.log(lineChartData).

Did you check

console.table(yourArray);

More infos here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Console/table

If you are using Chrome, you could also use

console.log( yourArray );

There is a wonderful print_r implementation for JavaScript in php.js library.

Note, you should also add echo support in the code.

Simple function to alert contents of an object or an array .
Call this function with an array or string or an object it alerts the contents.

Function

function print_r(printthis, returnoutput) {
    var output = '';

    if($.isArray(printthis) || typeof(printthis) == 'object') {
        for(var i in printthis) {
            output += i + ' : ' + print_r(printthis[i], true) + '\n';
        }
    }else {
        output += printthis;
    }
    if(returnoutput && returnoutput == true) {
        return output;
    }else {
        alert(output);
    }
}

Usage

var data = [1, 2, 3, 4];
print_r(data);
