Make Apache2 a directory pointer in json

Question

When it is enabled and privileged, the mod_dir module in Apache2 automatically sends an HTML page with the contents of the directory when the directory does not contain the index.html file. I am looking for an easy way to make this directory contents readable; It is preferable to have the contents of a directory formatted as a JSON array containing subdirs / subfiles instead of an HTML page.

What would be an easy way to accomplish this, which works on most standard Apache2.2 configurations? (without php scripts)

Not. You need to either modify or rebuild mod_autoindex, or you will need to redirect to a script file or generated JSON on the server.
