How do you log content of a JSON object in Node.js?

Is it possible to print an objects contents e.g. methods and attributes in Node.js?

At the moment I'm trying to print the session object and get the following:

console.log("Session:" + session);
> Session:[object Object]

Maybe in a similar way to print_r(array) in PHP, or using .toString in Java.

Try this one:

console.log("Session: %j", session);

If the object could be converted into JSON, that will work.

function prettyJSON(obj) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(obj, null, 2));
}

// obj -> value to convert to a JSON string
// null -> (do nothing)
// 2 -> 2 spaces per indent level

JSON.stringify on MDN

To have an output more similar to the raw console.log(obj) I usually do use console.log('Status: ' + util.inspect(obj)) (JSON is slightly different).
