How to save json to a variable?

Question

JavaScript

There is a file located in the root of the site with the json extension.
It is necessary to shove it into a variable and parse it. I do not quite understand the process of obtaining this file in js.
I know how to parse, but I don’t understand how to specify the path to the file to be read?

Answer 1

If we are talking about building a project or working in a nodejs environment, then a simple require with a link and assigning it to a variable is enough. If the project is implemented in the format of a “regular site”, then fetch will help, which should request a file using a “server” link. Let's say the file is at the root of the project in the assets/json directory, then the link will look something like https://domain.name/assets/json/file.json . Provided, of course, that the server will give the file and the entry point to the domain matches the project root, as I gave in the example.

Answer 2

JSON.parse (string with json)
load the string using ajax (by the way, there is an option to parse automatically)
