Pretty prints resulting data JSON.

The patches consist on an array of operations, each one contained in another array:

[
    [<path>, <operation>, <argument>],    
    [<path>, <operation>, <argument>],    
    ...
] 

• path - A path in data object to operate. Supports dot notation, like "a.b.c" or "a.b.0".
• operation - One of the implemented operations.
• argument - Argument for the operation.

• fetch() - Returns value stored on the selected path.
• put(value) - Adds value to the selected path, creating parent objects as needed.
• remove() - Removes key and contents stored on the selected path.
• move(path) - Moves contents to given path, removing them from the selected path.
• copy(path) - Copy contents to given path.

This module also provides a class for using in your Node.js application.

var Patcheable = require('japan').Patcheable;

var data = Patcheable({"a":{"b":2},"c":2}); // Example data object

// Patcheable.prototype.getKey(path)
// Used to get mutable slices of data object on selected path
// NOTE: Throws error if key is not accessible
console.log(data.getKey("a.b")); // { root: { b: 2 }, value: 'b' } 

// Patcheable.prototype.makeKey(path)
// Used to generate mutable slices of data object on selected path
console.log(data.getKey("a.c.x.z")); // { root: { z: {} }, value: 'z' } 

// Common operations
console.log(data.fetch("a")); // { b: 2 }
console.log(data.put("a.c", 3)); // 3
console.log(data.copy("c", "a.b")); // 2
console.log(data.move("a.c", "c")); // 3
console.log(data.remove("c")); // 3

// You can use data as a normal object
console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); // '{"a":{"b":2}}'
