Using JSON data in UFront

[Confidant]

In UFront I want to use a static JSON file server-side like it's a database. Any suggestions as to the preferred functions to use in reading/parsing the file prior to returning a dynamic ViewResult? I plan on setting it up as an API (like in this remoting example) and returning a surprise after the data is read. If it were clientside-only I'd be using haxe.Http but is there a better Ufront way?

Looks like sys.io.File will be the way to go.

Yes when it comes to interacting with the server FileSystem in a Ufront project, just use whatever is "native" for the target platform.  If you're using PHP or Neko on the server then go with the `sys.io.File` API.  If you're using NodeJS then probably the `Fs` API.

Good luck!
