Overwriting the .json file will probably work. The sequence of events will be
important. I imagine it'll be fine if you "close" the DB module, overwrite the
file, then reload the DB module.
Another option would be to make a script like the one I described, but run it
as a timed event (or have your Python script kick it off after it creates its
JSON file) instead of as a module service. That way it wouldn't be constantly
running, and could update your DB as needed.
