JSON modules#

Stability: 1 - Experimental

JSON files can be referenced by import:

import packageConfig from './package.json' assert { type: 'json' };

The assert { type: 'json' } syntax is mandatory; see Import Assertions.

The imported JSON only exposes a default export. There is no support for named exports. A cache entry is created in the CommonJS cache to avoid duplication. The same object is returned in CommonJS if the JSON module has already been imported from the same path.
