find the size of a json file in javascript

To find the size of a JSON file in JavaScript, you can use Node.js fs module. Node.js provides the fs.stat method to get the details of a file including the size property which tells us the size of the file in bytes. Here is an example code snippet:

index.tsx
const fs = require('fs');

// Get the file stats
const stats = fs.statSync('example.json');

// Get the size of the file in bytes
const fileSizeInBytes = stats.size;

console.log(`File size: ${fileSizeInBytes} bytes`);
219 chars
10 lines

In this example, fs.statSync('example.json') gets the stats of example.json file synchronously. We then access the size property of the stats object to get the file size in bytes. Finally, we log the file size in bytes to the console.
