You can get all keys / values and preserve the hierarchy with this

// get keys of an object or array
function getkeys(z){
  var out=[]; 
  for(var i in z){out.push(i)};
  return out;
}

// print all inside an object
function allInternalObjs(data, name) {
  name = name || 'data';
  return getkeys(data).reduce(function(olist, k){
    var v = data[k];
    if(typeof v === 'object') { olist.push.apply(olist, allInternalObjs(v, name + '.' + k)); }
    else { olist.push(name + '.' + k + ' = ' + v); }
    return olist;
  }, []);
}

// run with this
allInternalObjs({'a':[{'b':'c'},{'d':{'e':5}}],'f':{'g':'h'}}, 'ob')
