Convert a JSON object to a particular CSV format - json

Question

I want to convert this
{
"Name A":{
"Name B":{
"Name C":"Value C",
"Name D":"Value D",
"Name E":"Value E"
}
}
}
to this
Name A,,,
,Name B,,
,, Name C,Value C
,, Name D,Value D
,,Name E,Value E
It will look like this when opened in excel
I'm attempting to achieve this by running a small script, but before that I wanted to check if there is any node package or tool that can achieve this easily. Any clues?

Answer 1

Might be you can try with this npm module csvjson.
The link is here:- https://www.npmjs.com/package/csvjson

Answer 2

I solved this by writing my own script. I had to tweak a little to fit my necessity according to the format of the data. It is not the most elegant solution. It was quick dirty solution I got working. Still it's a good reference if anyone wants to try writing their own script to convert JSON to CSV
var fs = require('fs');
var file = 'templateEn.json';
var content = fs.readFileSync(file, { encoding: 'binary' });
var obj = JSON.parse(content);
var jsonString = ""
var lineEnd = "\r\n";
var firstLevelKeys = Object.keys(obj);
jsonString += firstLevelKeys[0] + ",,,,," + lineEnd;
var secondLevelKeys = Object.keys(obj["en"]);
secondLevelKeys.forEach(key => {
jsonString += ',' + key +',,,,'+ lineEnd
var thirdLevelKeys = Object.keys(obj["en"][key]);
thirdLevelKeys.forEach(key2=>{
if (typeof obj["en"][key][key2] === "string"){
jsonString += ",," + key2 + ',"' + obj["en"][key][key2]+'",,'+ lineEnd;
}
else if (typeof obj["en"][key][key2] === "object"){
var fourthLevelKeys = Object.keys(obj["en"][key][key2]);
jsonString += ',,' + key2 + ',,,' + lineEnd
fourthLevelKeys.forEach(key3 => {
if (typeof obj["en"][key][key2][key3] === "string") {
jsonString += ",,," + key3 + ',"' + obj["en"][key][key2][key3] + '",' + lineEnd;
}
else if (typeof obj["en"][key][key2][key3] === "object") {
var fifthLevelKeys = Object.keys(obj["en"][key][key2][key3]);
jsonString += ',,,' + key3 + ',,' + lineEnd
fifthLevelKeys.forEach(key4 => {
if (typeof obj["en"][key][key2][key3][key4] === "string") {
jsonString += ",,,," + key4 + ',"' + obj["en"][key][key2][key3][key4] + '"' + lineEnd;
}
})
}
})
}
});
});
fs.writeFileSync("generated.csv", jsonString, "utf8");
