将JavaScript源代码存储在json对象中的正确方法是什么？

Question

I want to edit JavaScript in a textarea and store it back into a JavaScript object. For example I have this object:

var item1 =   {
    'id' : 1,
    'title':'title',
    'sourcecode' : "alert('hallo')"
  };

If I would change the content to alert("hallo") or a even more complex example does this break my object?

I would think there is some escape function like this https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/escape . But it is marked as deprecated.

So if this is deprecated what would be the right way for storing complex JavaScript code into a JavaScript object?

Should I use stringify ?

https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify

The JSON.stringify() method converts a JavaScript value to a JSON string, optionally replacing values if a replacer function is specified, or optionally including only the specified properties if a replacer array is specified.

This does not read like there is an automated escape build in.

If you need to send the data to a server, I'd say you should encodeURI your sourceCode, and then JSON.stringify the entire object. When retreiving data from the server, you should decodeURI the sourceCode
