Hi,
I need to print out objects with embedded functions ideally both to the
command line and as files.
const test = {
name: "test",
get: function() { return "test"; }
};
I need to print out a structure like the above with the function definition
to the console and also as
You’re going to need to write a custom serializer similar to util.inspect
to get this. Be forewarned, though, there’s a reason functions aren’t
displayed as their source by default: calling .toString() on a function
doesn’t include the closure environment for the function, so any lexically
defined

Is there any way it can be fixed ?
Shall I raise an issue ?

I'm not sure that raising an issue can help you (and who would it be with?
Node's maintainers? the V8 team? TC39?), because you're running up against
a property of all languages with closures and lexical environments. This
isn't a JavaScript-specific problem; all dynamic languages that support
firs
