Serialize an expression along with any needed definitions so that it can be used in another session
ResourceFunction["SerializeWithDefinitions"][expr] serializes expr to a ByteArray along with its dependent definitions. |
Serialize an expression with dependent definitions:
In[1]:= | ![]() |
Out[4]= | ![]() |
Definitions are restored when the expression is deserialized:
In[5]:= | ![]() |
Out[6]= | ![]() |
The serialized expression is an evaluation that restores definitions before returning the output:
In[7]:= | ![]() |
In[8]:= | ![]() |
Out[8]= | ![]() |
BinarySerialize by itself does not preserve definitions:
In[9]:= | ![]() |
Out[9]= | ![]() |
In[10]:= | ![]() |
Out[10]= | ![]() |
In[11]:= | ![]() |
In[12]:= | ![]() |
Out[12]= | ![]() |
In[13]:= | ![]() |
Out[13]= | ![]() |
Serialize a Dataset:
In[14]:= | ![]() |
Out[14]= | ![]() |
Serialize the same Dataset with PerformanceGoal set to "Size":
In[15]:= | ![]() |
Out[15]= | ![]() |
Both forms represent the same expression:
In[16]:= | ![]() |
Out[16]= | ![]() |
