Create separate files on disk based on a JSON object
## Installation
Install this tool using `pip`:
pip install json-to-files
## Usage
This tool takes a JSON file that looks like this:
```json
{
"foo.txt": "The contents of foo.txt",
"bar/baz.txt": "The contents of baz.txt"
}
```
And uses it to write out the following files on disk:
- `foo.txt` containing "The contents of foo.txt"
- `bar/baz.txt` containing "The contents of baz.txt"
You can run it like this:
json-to-files bundle.json
Or you can specify a directory to write those files to:
json-to-files bundle.json -d /tmp/other-directory
The `bundles.json` file name is optional - if omitted, this tool will read from standard input:
cat bundle.json | json-to-files
## Development
To contribute to this tool, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd json-to-files
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:
pip install -e '.[test]'
To run the tests:
pytest
