How can I get json string from cheerio object? NOT OBJECT, but STRING

for example:

<xml>
  <some1></some1>
  <some2></some2>
</xml>

json (string):

xml {
 some1, 
 some2
}

Just walk the tree yourself and grab what you need on the way, the DOM is represented as a javascript object already in cheerio.

walk = ({ tagName, attribs, children = [] }) => ({
  tagName,
  attribs,
  children: children.map(walk),
}); 
JSON.stringify(walk($('html')[0]), null , 2);

if you want the doctype then start the walk on $._root. Technically you should use cheerio’s getters instead of accessing the properties directly but whatever.
