  ],
  error: new Error('message'),
  date: new Date(0),
  object: {
    number: 200,
    bool: false,
    null: null,
    undefined: undefined,
    emptyObject: {},
  },
};

obj.circular = obj;

const formattedString = yamlifyObject(obj, {
  indent: '  ',
  prefix: '\n',
  postfix: '\n',
});

console.log(formattedString);
/*

  array:

API

yamlifyObject(input, options)

input

Type: Object Array

options

indent

Type: string
Default: ' ' - single space

prefix

Type: string
Default: '\n'

postfix

Type: string
Default: ''

dateToString(date: Date)

Type: Function
Expected to return a string that stringified version of Date instance.

errorToString(error: Error)

Type: Function

colors

Type: object
Default:

{
  date: function (s: string): string,
  error: function (s: string): string,
  symbol: function (s: string): string,
  string: function (s: string): string,
  number: function (s: string): string,
  boolean: function (s: string): string,
  null: function (s: string): string,
  undefined: function (s: string): string,
}

Each property of colors object expected to be a function that expected to return somehow colorified version of passed string argument.
You can specify colors only for types you need and, if have the need, the base text color. The rest will stay colorless strings:

const obj = {
  number: 1
  string: 'str',
  bool: true,
};

const formattedString = yamlifyObject(obj, {
  colors: {
    base: (text) => `COLOR_CODE${text}COLOR_CODE`,
    number: (value) => `COLOR_CODE${value}COLOR_CODE`,
    boolean: (value) => `COLOR_CODE${value}COLOR_CODE`,
  },
});

console.log(formattedString);
/*
 number: COLOR_CODE1COLOR_CODE
 string: str
 bool: COLOR_CODEtrueCOLOR_CODE
*/

base color is the text that is not related to the values (names of the properties, dashes, brackets, etc)
