Useful for when you want to get the string representation of an object in a formatted way.

+##### transform(obj, prop, originalResult)
+
+Type: `Function`<br>
+Default: `undefined`
+
+Expected to return a `string` that transforms the string that resulted from stringifying `obj[prop]`. This can be used to detect special types of objects that need to be stringified in a particular way. The `transform` function might return an alternate string in this case, otherwise returning the `originalResult`.
+
+Here's an example that uses the `transform` option to mask fields named "password":
+
+```js
+const obj = {
+ user: 'becky',
+ password: 'secret'
+}
+
+const pretty = stringifyObject(obj, {
+ transform: (obj, prop, originalResult) => {
+ if (prop === 'password') {
+ return originalResult.replace(/\w/g, '*');
+ } else {
+ return originalResult;
+ }
+ }
+});
+
+console.log(pretty);
+/*
+{
+ user: 'becky',
+ password: '******'
+}
