JSON stringify ES6 class property with getter/setter

You can use toJSON method to customise the way your class serialises to JSON:

class MyClass {
  constructor(property) {
    this.property = property
  }

  set property(prop) {
  // Some validation etc.
  this._property = prop
  }

  get property() {
    return this._property
  }

  toJSON() {
    return {
      property: this.property
    }
  }
}

If you want to avoid calling toJson, there is another solution using enumerable and writable:

class MyClass {

  constructor(property) {

    Object.defineProperties(this, {
        _property: {writable: true, enumerable: false},
        property: {
            get: function () { return this._property; },
            set: function (property) { this._property = property; },
            enumerable: true
        }
    });

    this.property = property;
  }

}

As mentioned by @Amadan you can write your own toJSON method.

Further more, in order to avoid re-updating your method every time you add a property to your class you can use a more generic toJSON implementation.

class MyClass {

  get prop1() {
    return 'hello';
  }
  
  get prop2() {
    return 'world';
  }

  toJSON() {

    // start with an empty object (see other alternatives below) 
    const jsonObj = {};

    // add all properties
    const proto = Object.getPrototypeOf(this);
    for (const key of Object.getOwnPropertyNames(proto)) {      
      const desc = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(proto, key);
      const hasGetter = desc && typeof desc.get === 'function';
      if (hasGetter) {
        jsonObj[key] = desc.get();
      }
    }

    return jsonObj;
  }
}

const instance = new MyClass();
const json = JSON.stringify(instance);
console.log(json); // outputs: {"prop1":"hello","prop2":"world"}

If you want to emit all properties and all fields you can replace const jsonObj = {}; with

const jsonObj = Object.assign({}, this);

Alternatively, if you want to emit all properties and some specific fields you can replace it with

const jsonObj = {
    myField: myOtherField
};

I made some adjustments to the script of Alon Bar. Below is a version of the script that works perfectly for me.

toJSON() {
        const jsonObj = Object.assign({}, this);
        const proto = Object.getPrototypeOf(this);
        for (const key of Object.getOwnPropertyNames(proto)) {
            const desc = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(proto, key);
            const hasGetter = desc && typeof desc.get === 'function';
            if (hasGetter) {
                jsonObj[key] = this[key];
            }
        }
        return jsonObj;
    }
