Answer 1

Create your flat data array and than process on data for finding nested json

like

[{"itemname": "item1","settingkey": "key1","settingvalue": "value1"}, {"itemname": "item2","settingkey": "key2","settingvalue": "value2"},];

and then process this

var keys = Object.keys(dataMap);

var json = [];
for (var key in keys) {
        var innerJson = {};
        innerJson["name"] = keys[key];
        var innerMap = dataMap[keys[key]];

        if (innerMap instanceof Array) {
            innerJson["size"] = innerMap[0];
        } else if (innerMap instanceof Object) {

            var child = processHirarchiachalData(innerMap);
            innerJson["children"] = child;
        }
        json.push(innerJson);

}
