How to create JSON files from Tabular data with a JSON template

Example: catalog of item

The variable name should match the name of a column of the source.

{
  "${group}": {
    "${item_code}": {
      "price": "${price}",
      "description": "${description}"
    }
  }
}

where:

  • group,
  • item_code,
  • price
  • and description (from ${group}}, ${item_code}, ${price} and ${description})

are the column names of the source.
