json file doesn't show up in godot










0















I'm making a dating sim as my first game and I want to use a JSON file to store all of my dialogue, sprites and B.G.M. kind of like a A.P.I; but the file I wrote won't appear in the godot filesystem section.



here's an image of what i'm talking about.



I can't get the file path without it, is there a way for it to appear or should I just give up.

          Try using the File API and read the data into the variable. Like so:



          var data =
          var path = "res://data.json"
          func _ready():
          var jsonfile = File.new()
          jsonfile.open(path, File.READ)
          data = parse_json(jsonfile.get_as_text())
          print(data)
          pass
