JSON Directory
Provides utilities for reading JSON structures out of directories. Directory entries become keys in a map, and the values are sourced from the contets of each entry.
By default
- Directories are recured into
- Files ending with
.json
are read as JSON values - Everything else is interpreted as a string
However, these can be modified with rules, that allow for interpreting any sort of file as JSON.
The [example](./example) directory in this repository would result in the following JSON value.
{
"empty": {},
"a": "This is files will have its contents written into a JSON string.\n",
"d": {
"example": "Sometimes it's convenient to embed some raw JSON"
},
"b": 42,
"c": {
"nested": "You can nest directories to create a tree structure.\n"
}
}
