Angular 6 - Load JSON from local

Question

I am trying to load a local JSONfile of two ways.

This is my json file:

{
  \"imgsesion\": \"fa_closesesion.png\",
  \"texthome\": \"volver a la home         


        

Answer 1

The simplest solution:

import "myJSON" from "./myJson"

Important update!

I found, that this method stops working in newest Angular versions, because of this error:

ERROR in src/app/app.weather.service.ts(2,25): error TS2732: Cannot find module './data.json'. Consider using '--resolveJsonModule' to import module with '.json' extension

To make it works, go to the tsconfig.json and add this two, inside

compilerOptions( tsconfig.json ) :

"resolveJsonModule": true,
"esModuleInterop": true,

After change, re-run ng serve.

If you only use the first option, you can get an error like this:

ERROR in src/app/app.weather.service.ts(2,8): error TS1192: Module '"....app/data/data.json"' has no default export.
