Documentation
- specification for data type mapping
Whilst a JSON document containing only a Null, Boolean, Number or String may be considered valid for other purposes, JSON-FS is only intended for use with valid JSON documents that specify an Array or Object.
Generating API Documentation
You may build the documentation using JSDoc3 with the following grunt task (note this requires Java and JAVA_HOME to be set):
grunt doc
The HTML documentation will be built in the doc/jsdoc
directory.
Examples
FSBuilder
var fsBuilder = new require('json-fs').FSBuilder();
fsBuilder.setSource({ object: 'or array', [ 'to', 'store', 'as', 'files' ] });
fsBuilder.setOutput('/path/to/output/directory')
fsBuilder.build(function (err) {
if (err) {
throw err;
}
// otherwise, the contents of the directory have been built!
});
JSONBuilder
var jsonBuilder = new require('json-fs').JSONBuilder();
jsonBuilder.setSource('/path/to/input/directory')
jsonBuilder.build(function (err, result) {
if (err) {
throw err;
}
// otherwise, result will be an Object or Array as per the directory
});
