How to parse JSON object to CSV file using json2csv nodejs module

Question

I\'m currently learning how to parse a JSON object to a CSV file using the json2csv node module. Have never worked with JSON before, so this is all new to me.

My JSO

Answer 1

The input is bad format, it should like json2csv document:

var json2csv = require('json2csv');

var json = [
  {
    "car": "Audi",
    "price": 40000,
    "color": "blue"
  }, {
    "car": "BMW",
    "price": 35000,
    "color": "black"
  }, {
    "car": "Porsche",
    "price": 60000,
    "color": "green"
  }
];

json2csv({data: json, fields: ['car', 'price', 'color']}, function(err, csv) {
  if (err) console.log(err);
  fs.writeFile('file.csv', csv, function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log('file saved');
  });
});

The content of the "file.csv" should be

car,       price, color
"Audi",    40000, "blue"
"BMW",     35000, "black"
"Porsche", 60000, "green"
