I have a question wanna ask you. I have the json file have contain the relative path of all files located in the folder contain this json file.

example:

In my folder: D:\Data\Files\file1.txt
              D:\Data\Files\file2.jpg
              D:\Data\info.json
In json file: Files:{
                 path: Files\file1.txt,
                 path: Files\file2.jpg,
                    }

Can I read all files by relative path file in the json file in javascript?

If it possible please help me some example code.

Sorry for my bad english.

Many thanks.

are you using nodejs? or what javascript? It's impossible in browser. – Anton Lee Aug 21 '17 at 10:20
need an extra info on this – NiRUS Aug 21 '17 at 10:20
@AntonLee — Since the question is tagged [tag:angular], "in browser" is a reasonable assumption. – Quentin Aug 21 '17 at 10:21
it is not possible using relative path. you need to use the file reader api. but you need to improve your question to get an answer – Sagar V Aug 21 '17 at 10:21
