In Node.js, working with data often involves reading from files and inserting those data into databases. Below is how to read JSON data from a file, process it, and format it for a SQL INSERT statement:
- Using fs.readFile method to read the contents of a file
- Use JSON.parse to convert the JSON string into an object
- Iterates over each element in the JSON array using .map(). Inside the .map() function, specific fields from each JSON object are restructured.
Example:
const dataEntries = JSON.parse(await fs.readFile('./filename.json', 'utf-8'))
('${value1}', '${value2}')
.map(element => {
const { value1, value2 } = element;
return;
});
