Installation

For ES5 users,

<html>
       <body>
       	<script src="../dist/json-knife.bundle.js"></script>
       	<script type="text/javascript">

       </body>
</html>

For ES6 npm users, do 'npm install --save json-knife' on console.

import Pattern from 'json-knife';

Syntax & Usage

Very simple to use. Now we are going to set all 'Mike{[Gentleman]}' to null in the sample JSON string.

/**
     * @brief
     * Mass Update certain key-values recursively in huge, complex JSON string trees
     * @author Andrew Kang
     * @param original string required (must be JSON string)
     * @param key string required
     * @param value string or boolean or number or null required
     * @return string
     */
    
      // IMPORTANT : the variable 'original' should be valid JSON.
      // You can test your JSON string source like here. 
      // https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/
    
    var result = Pattern.sculptJson(original, 'Mike{[Gentleman]}', null);
    
    // You can convert the result string to an object type.
    var resultObj = JSON.parse(result);
