move a json file in ruby

To move a JSON file in Ruby, you can use an external library called FileUtils. This library provides several methods for manipulating files and directories, including moving files.

You can move a JSON file using the FileUtils.mv method as follows:

main.rb
require 'fileutils'

FileUtils.mv('/path/to/old_file.json', '/path/to/new_file.json')
86 chars
4 lines

This will move the JSON file from the old path to the new path. Note that if the new path already exists, the old file will be overwritten by default. If you want to preserve the old file, you can set the :force option to false, like this:

main.rb
FileUtils.mv('/path/to/old_file.json', '/path/to/new_file.json', force: false)
79 chars
2 lines

This will raise an error if the new file already exists.
