The empty constructor is fine: new Hydrate(). Check out the specs for some examples: https://github.com/nanodeath/HydrateJS/blob/master/spec/HydrateSpec.js

FYI, the resolver is how strings representing the classes are mapped back into actual classes after deserialization.

I modified the source as follows for it to serialize functions:
1)
case “function”:
//throw new Error(“can’t serialize functions”);
//break;
return uneval(eval(input));

2)
case “function”:
//return this.errorHandler(new Hydrate.NonPrototypeFunctionError(input, name));
return uneval(eval(input));

It currently serializes my object just fine.
However when I try to deserialize it I get the following error:
No Hydrate resolver found — you should specify one in the Hydrate constructor!

I’m not sure if that’s caused by my changes or if I’m doing something wrong:
var serialized = Hydrate.prototype.stringify(object);
var deserialized = Hydrate.prototype.parse(serialized);
