(Ruby) Insert JSON Object into another JSON Object

Demonstrates how to insert one JSON object into another. Effectively, the JSON object must be copied into the other..

require 'chilkat'

#  Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
jsonA = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
jsonA.UpdateString("animal","zebra")
jsonA.UpdateString("colors[0]","white")
jsonA.UpdateString("colors[1]","black")

jsonA.put_EmitCompact(false)
print jsonA.emit() + "\n";

#  jsonA contains:

#  {
#    "animal": "zebra",
#    "colors": [
#      "white",
#      "black"
#    ]
#  }

jsonB = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
jsonB.UpdateString("type","mammal")
jsonB.UpdateBool("carnivore",false)

jsonB.put_EmitCompact(false)
print jsonB.emit() + "\n";

#  jsonB contains:

#  {
#    "type": "mammal",
#    "carnivore": false
#  }

#  Let's say we want to insert jsonB into jsonA to get this:

#  {
#    "animal": "zebra",
#    "info" " { 
#       "type": "mammal",
#        "carnivore": false
#  	},
#    "colors": [
#      "white",
#      "black"
#    ]
#  }

#  First add an empty object at the desired location:
jsonA.AddObjectAt(1,"info")

#  Get the JSON object at that location, and load the JSON..
# jsonInfo is a CkJsonObject
jsonInfo = jsonA.ObjectOf("info")
jsonInfo.Load(jsonB.emit())

print jsonA.emit() + "\n";

#  The end result is this:

#  {
#    "animal": "zebra",
#    "info": {
#      "type": "mammal",
#      "carnivore": false
#    },
#    "colors": [
#      "white",
#      "black"
#    ]
#  }
