CSVtoJSON

Convert csv file to JSON file with Node.js.

This project is not dependent on others packages or libraries.

The cvs file must be semicolon (;) separated.

Give an input file like:

first_name	last_name	email	gender	age
Constantin	Langsdon	[e-mail]	Male	96

e.g. :

first_name;last_name;email;gender;age
Constantin;Langsdon;[e-mail];Male;96
Norah;Raison;[e-mail];Female;32

[
 {
  "first_name": "Constantin",
  "last_name": "Langsdon",
  "email": "[e-mail]",
  "gender": "Male",
  "age": 96
 },
