Handling of large contract file with JSONStream

[akrysiak-equinix]

Currently to read (and probably generate json) the tool uses: JSON.parse. For large contract files parsing ends up with exception:

SyntaxError: Expected ':' after property name in JSON at position 65536 (line 2154 column 19)
    at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)
    at generate (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/json-schema-faker-cli/node_modules/json-schema-faker/bin/gen.cjs:93:55)
    at Transform.transform [as _transform] (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/json-schema-faker-cli/node_modules/json-schema-faker/bin/gen.cjs:111:7)

The JSON parses stops after reaching max position: 65536

Would be feasible to use something like: https://www.npmjs.com/package/JSONStream?

Thanks for reporting this.

Maybe streaming could make sense in handing large files. However, I'm not interested too much in maintaining this tool. I believe I haven't used it for many years. Especially large files aren't something valuable for me here because I've always used this tool for relatively short files, and I don't know about anybody else using large schemas. Instead of an enormous file, you could try splitting it into many shorter files.

Anyway, you're welcome to create your own fork.
