Looping through JSON with node.js

Question

I have a JSON file which I need to iterate over, as shown below...

{
    \"device_id\": \"8020\",
    \"data\": [{
        \"Timestamp\": \"04-29-11 05:22:39

If we are using nodeJS, we should definitely take advantage of different libraries it provides. Inbuilt functions like each(), map(), reduce() and many more from underscoreJS reduces our efforts. Here's a sample

    var _=require("underscore");
    var fs=require("fs");

    var jsonObject=JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('YourJson.json', 'utf8'));


    _.map( jsonObject, function(content) {
        _.map(content,function(data){
           if(data.Timestamp)
              console.log(data.Timestamp)          
           })
      })
