jarle Import a JSON file
Bun natively supports .json imports.
{
"name": "bun",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": {
"name": "John Dough",
"email": "john@dough.com"
}
}
Import the file like any other source file.
import data from "./package.json";
data.name; // => "bun"
data.version; // => "1.0.0"
data.author.name; // => "John Dough"
Bun also supports Import Attributes and JSON modules syntax.
import data from "./package.json" with { type: "json" };
data.name; // => "bun"
data.version; // => "1.0.0"
data.author.name; // => "John Dough"
