Usage

var rapunzel = require('rapunzel');

var h_obj = {
    "example":
    {
        "of": "stringifying a simple object",
        "that": "only has objects and strings",
    }
};

var stringify_obj = function(add, h_part) {
    if('string' === typeof h_part) {
        add("'"+h_part.replace(/'/g, "\\'")+"'", true);
    }
    else {
        add.open('{', ',', true);
        for(var s_property in h_part) {
            add(s_property+': ');
            stringify_obj(add, h_part[s_property]);
        }
        add.close('}');
    }
};

var k_builder = rapunzel({
    preamble: function(add) {
        add('// this is the beginning');
    },
    body: function(add) {
        stringify_obj(add, h_obj);
    },
    closing: function(add) {
        add('// this is the end');
    },
});

k_builder.produce({
    indent: '\t',
});

yields:

// this is the beginning
{
    example: {
        of: 'stringifying a simple object',
        that: 'only has objects and strings',
    },
}
// this is the end
