Read data in JSON format

Hi,

I have some data stored in file in JSON format. I'd like to read these data and store them into database in rail application. Is there any plugin to perform this? or direct code?

Should I convert this data to csv or other format?

Thanks,

Ahmed

ActiveSupport has some JSON stuff built in. Check the docs for ActiveSupport::JSON.

Either leave it in JSON or use YAML (which is *almost* a superset of JSON).

Thanks,

Best,
