I believe it is simple as.

• Reading the JSON file and use JSON.parse to convert it to a Javascript object or array.
• Loop through it to add new rows using the Database provider or the Models (whichever is appropriate in your case)
• Use the validator (read docs) and validate rows before writing them to the database.
