name: Read a JSON file
|

The `Bun.file()` function accepts a path and returns a `BunFile` instance. The `BunFile` class extends `Blob` and allows you to lazily read the file in a variety of formats. Use `.json()` to read and parse the contents of a `.json` file as a plain object.
|
|
|
|
The MIME type of the `BunFile` will be set accordingly.
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
const path = "/path/to/package.json";
|
|
const file = Bun.file(path);
|
|
|
|
const contents = await file.json();
|
|
// { name: "my-package" }
|
|
|
|
file.type; // => "application/json;charset=utf-8";
|
|
```
