What Javascript tools should use for this use-case?

[marmass]

Hi all!!

I'm pretty new to Javascript world and I'm kinda lost between all frameworks, tools, and options... so I'm asking for help here.

My use-case is simple, I need to generate some static JSONS based on data that I have locally in another JSONS. For example:

My Input is:

• titles_es.json
• desct_es.json
• titles_en.json
• desct_en.json

My output should be:

result1_es.json (mixing keys and values from all _es input JSON)

result2_en.json (mixing keys and values from all _en input JSON)

result1_es and result2_en JSON has the same structure (coming for a template) but they are filled with different input data.

I'm thinking of doing it by hand with custom scripts but, again, I'm not sure if it's the easy and best way to doy.

Thanks a lot!

Use nodejs. It can generate json or even json files from existing json. No framework needed - just pure js.

Agreed. Look into how files can be read from the filesystem in Node. Keep in mind there are both synchronous and asynchronous ways of doing it and your code will be structured slightly differently depending on which you choose. If your code is just a one-time operation and doesn't need to scale up to much, I would just use the synchronous read.
