# load-json-file [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/load-json-file.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/load-json-file)

[Strips UTF-8 BOM](https://github.com/sindresorhus/strip-bom), uses [`graceful-fs`](https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs), and throws more [helpful JSON errors](https://github.com/sindresorhus/parse-json).

const loadJsonFile = require('load-json-file');

	console.log(await loadJsonFile('foo.json'));

Returns a `Promise<unknown>` with the parsed JSON.

### loadJsonFile.sync(filepath, [options])

### loadJsonFile.sync(filepath, options?)

Applies a function to the JSON string before parsing.

Prescribes how the value originally produced by parsing is transformed, before being returned. See the [`JSON.parse` docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/parse#Using_the_reviver_parameter) for more.
