# replace-json

1. `npm install`

2. Edit `replace.js` to modify the JSON data to be replaced

3. `npm run main` - runs `replace.js` to replace JSON data & `format.js` to format JSON data

## Result

A JSON string belonging to a JSON file  is read in and parsed as an Object. This Object then replaces the contents of a JSON file with formatting.

### Before 

```

{

  "key": "value","test": "data",

  "hello": 

  "world"

} 

or

{

  "key": "This is a new value",

  "test": "data",

  

  "hello": "world",

  "parent": {

    "child": 1,

    "child2": 22}

}

```

### After

```

{

  "key": "value",

  "test": "data",

  "hello": "world"

}

and 

{

  "key": "This is a new value",

  "test": "data",

  "hello": "world",

  "parent": {

    "child": 1,

    "child2": 22

  }

}

```

## TODO

* Check if JSON key exists in file before overwriting

* Swap sync functions with async

* Replace multiple JSON key values at different levels

* Error handling (currently assumes all inputs are available)
