How can I get the full object in Node.js’s console.log(), rather than ‘[Object]’?

You need to use util.inspect():

const util = require('util')

console.log(util.inspect(myObject, {showHidden: false, depth: null, colors: true}))

// alternative shortcut
console.log(util.inspect(myObject, false, null, true /* enable colors */))

Outputs

{ a: 'a',  b: { c: 'c', d: { e: 'e', f: { g: 'g', h: { i: 'i' } } } } }
