jsonloaderv2 v1.1.0

JsonLoaderV2

Simple JSON loading and saving utility

npm i jsonloaderv2

The loader

The "loader" works as a JSON file manager than can read and write

You simply import the loader then call it with its designated filename

var jsonloader = require('jsonloaderv2');

var configLoader = new jsonloader("config.json");

This way the configLoader object can now manage the config.json file with get() and save()

get(force = false)

Returns the content of the JSON file. Use the force argument to force loading from the file and not from cache

/*
 * Returns the content of the file then caches it
 * for future call
 */
var config = configLoader.get();

// Will always return the content from the file itself
var config = configLoader.get(true);

save(json)

Saves the given JSON to the original file and returns a promise

var configLoader = new jsonloader("config.json");

var config = configLoader.get();
config.value = "Something else";

configLoader.save(config).then(function(message){    
    // Save success
    console.log(message);    
}, function(err){
    // Save failure
    console.log(err)
})
