PerformanceResourceTiming: toJSON() method

The toJSON() method of the PerformanceResourceTiming interface is a serializer; it returns a JSON representation of the PerformanceResourceTiming object.

Syntax

js
toJSON()

Parameters

None.

Return value

A JSON object that is the serialization of the PerformanceResourceTiming object.

Examples

Using the toJSON method

In this example, calling entry.toJSON() returns a JSON representation of the PerformanceResourceTiming object.

js
const observer = new PerformanceObserver((list) => {
  list.getEntries().forEach((entry) => {
    console.log(entry.toJSON());
  });
});

observer.observe({ type: "resource", buffered: true });

This would log a JSON object like so:

json
{
  "name": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4a/Commons-logo.svg/31px-Commons-logo.svg.png",
  "entryType": "resource",

  "responseEnd": 122.40000000596046,
  "transferSize": 0,
  "encodedBodySize": 880,
  "decodedBodySize": 880,
  "serverTiming": [
    {
      "name": "cache",
      "duration": 0,
      "description": "hit-front"
    },
    {
      "name": "host",
      "duration": 0,
      "description": "cp3061"
    }
  ]
}

To get a JSON string, you can use JSON.stringify(entry) directly; it will call toJSON() automatically.
