### Use `tson` as a library in your application
You can use tson in your application as following.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
tson "github.com/skanehira/tson/lib"
)
func main() {
j := []byte(`{"name":"gorilla"}`)
// tson.Edit([]byte) will return []byte, error
res, err := tson.Edit(j)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
fmt.Println(string(res))
}
```

## About editing nodes
When editing a node value, the JSON value type is determined based on the value.
For example, after inputed `10.5` and saving the JSON to a file, it will be output as a float type `10.5`.
If the value sorround with `"`, it will be output as string type always.
The following is a list of conversion rules.
| input value | json type |
|--------------------|-----------|
| `gorilla` | string |
| `10.5` | float |
| `5` | int |
| `true` or `false` | boolean |
| `null` | null |
| `"10"` or `"true"` | string |
## About adding new node
You can use `a` to add new node with raw json string.
For expample, you have following tree.
```
{array} <- your cursor in there
├──a
├──b
└──c
```
If you input `{"name":"gorilla"}` and press add button,
then you will get new tree as following.
```
{array} <- your cursor in there
├──a
├──b
├──c
└──{object}
└──name
└──gorilla
```
Also, You can use `A` to add new value to current node.
For example, you have following tree.
```
{object} <- your cursor in there
└──name
└──gorilla
```
If you input `{"age": 26}` and press add button,
then you will get new tree as following.
```
{object} <- your cursor in there
├──name
│ └──gorilla
└──age
└──26
```
