Sometimes a "pure" equality between two objects is insufficient, because the comparison relies on some external state. While these kinds of scenarios should generally be avoided, it is possible to handle them with a custom internal comparator that checks meta
values.
import { createCustomEqual } from 'fast-equals';
interface Meta {
value: string;
}
const meta: Meta = { value: 'baz' };
const deepEqual = createCustomEqual<Meta>({
createInternalComparator:
(compare) => (a, b, _keyA, _keyB, _parentA, _parentB, state) =>
compare(a, b, state) || a === state.meta.value || b === state.meta.value,
createState: () => ({ meta }),
});
