var rapunzel = require('rapunzel');

var h_obj = {

	{
		"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 {
		this.open('{', ',', true);
		for(var s_property in h_part) {
			add(s_property+': ');
			stringify_obj.apply(this, [add, h_part[s_property]]);
		}
		this.close('}');
	}
};

var k_builder = rapunzel({
	preamble: function(add) {
		add('// this is the beginning');
	},
	body: function(add) {
		stringify_obj.apply(this, [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
