read-json-sync

npm version Build Status Coverage Status

A Node.js module to read and parse a JSON file synchronously

const readJsonSync = require('read-json-sync');

readJsonSync('package.json'); //=> {name: 'read-json-sync', version: '1.0.0', ...}

Node.js built-in require and import can do almost the same thing, but this module doesn't cache results.

Installation

Use npm.

npm install read-json-sync

API

const readJsonSync = require('read-json-sync');

readJsonSync(path , options)

path: string Buffer URL (JSON filename) or integer (file descriptor)
options: Object string (fs.readFile options or an encoding of the file)
Return: any (parsed JSON data)

It automatically ignores the leading byte order mark.

// with-bom.json: '\uFEFF{"a": 1}'

JSON.parse('\uFEFF{"a": 1}'); // throws a SyntaxError

readJsonSync('with-bom.json'); //=> {a: 1}
