Prerequisites

Node.js

Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:

Requirements and caveats from upstream:

• var fs = require('fs'), // needed to read JSON file from disk
• Collection = require('postman-collection').Collection,

Basic usage or getting-started notes:

• In this example snippet we will get started by loading a collection from a file and output the same in console.

• javascript

• myCollection;
