I have read a few articles stating you can now import json directly since type script 2.9. So I have amended my tsconfig.json file as follows:
{
"compileOnSave": false,
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./",
"outDir": "./dist/out-tsc",
"sourceMap": true,
"declaration": false,
"downlevelIteration": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"module": "esnext",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"importHelpers": true,
"target": "es2015",
"typeRoots": [
"node_modules/@types"
],
"lib": [
"es2018",
"dom"
]
},
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"fullTemplateTypeCheck": true,
"strictInjectionParameters": true
},
"paths": {
"@data/*": ["src/core/data/*"],
"@models/*": ["src/core/models/*"],
"@services/*": ["src/core/*"],
"@environments/*": ["src/environments/*"]
},
"resolveJsonModule": true,
"esModuleInterop": true,
"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
}
And then I imported the json into my component like this:
import particlesJson from '../../assets/particles.json';
It runs fine, but I get an error in the console:
ERROR in src/app/profile/login.component.ts(3,27): error TS2732: Cannot find module '../../assets/particles.json'. Consider using '--resolveJsonModule' to import module with '.json' extension
How can I stop that error from appearing?
