How to read an external local JSON file in JavaScript?

May 11, 2022 by IT Nursery

I have saved a JSON file in my local system and created a JavaScript file in order to read the JSON file and print data out. Here is the JSON file:

{"resource":"A","literals":["B","C","D"]}

Let’s say this is the path of the JSON file: /Users/Documents/workspace/test.json.

Could anyone please help me write a simple piece of code to read the JSON file and print the data in JavaScript?
