Serialization

[davidepaci]

Is there a way to serialize and unserialize a Quadtree? Or is the best strategy currently just to stringy, parse and recreate the Quadtree? Thanks in advance

Interesting, can you explain your use case? Currently there is no custom way to do so.

JSON.stringify(tree) gives results, but I wonder how useful this is.
I would recommend only storing the object data, positions etc. and recreate and reinsert the objects each time.

I'm using a quadtree to spatially index a graph to find edges more efficiently. I also need to store the quadtree to MongoDB in the same doc as the graph
