properties-to-json

Convert Java .properties files to JSON (using JavaScript).

The function propertiesToJSON takes a string and returns a JavaScript object.

Read a local file in node:

const fs = require("fs");
const path = require("path");
const filePath = path.join(__dirname, "sample.properties");
const propertiesToJSON = require("properties-to-json");

fs.readFile(filePath, { encoding: "utf-8" }, (err, data) => {
    if (!err) {
        console.log(propertiesToJSON(data));
    }
});

Read a remote file in the browser:

const propertiesToJSON = require("properties-to-json");

const propsFile = new Request(
    "https://gitcdn.link/repo/ryanpcmcquen/propertiesToJSON/master/sample.properties"
);

const props = fetch(propsFile)
    .then((response) => {
        return response.text();
    })
    .then((text) => {
        const propsText = propertiesToJSON(text);
        console.log(propsText);
        return propsText;
    });
