how to use the readjsonsync function from the fs-extra library in typescript

To use the readJsonSync function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you can use the following syntax:

index.ts
import { readJsonSync } from 'fs-extra';

try {
  const jsonObject = readJsonSync('path/to/json/file.json');
  // Do something with the JSON object
} catch (error) {
  // Handle the error
}

The readJsonSync function reads a JSON file synchronously and returns a JavaScript object. If the file cannot be read or parsed as JSON, an error will be thrown. To handle errors, it is best practice to wrap the function call in a try-catch block as shown above.

Note that readJsonSync is a synchronous function, meaning it will block the thread until it completes reading the JSON file. If you need to read a JSON file asynchronously, consider using the readJson function instead.
