Usage

import { findUpJsonFile, toObject, writeFile } from '@jfonx/file-utils';

/* Write a file on the disk */
writeFile({
  file: __dirname + '/filename.txt',
  content: 'I am programmer',
  force: true, // Force rewrite if the file exists
});

/* Read the contents of a JSON file and convert it to an object */
toObject(__dirname + '/tsconfig.json', true /* exit program if error */);

  isJson: true,
  rootDir: __dirname /* From this folder */,
});
console.log(module);
