# Deep Merge core documentation.
# deep_merge! method permits merging of arbitrary child elements. The two top level
# elements must be hashes. These hashes can contain unlimited (to stack limit) levels
# of child elements. These child elements to not have to be of the same types.
# Where child elements are of the same type, deep_merge will attempt to merge them together.
# Where child elements are not of the same type, deep_merge will skip or optionally overwrite
# the destination element with the contents of the source element at that level.
# So if you have two hashes like this:
# source = {:x => [1,2,3], :y => 2}
# dest = {:x => [4,5,'6'], :y => [7,8,9]}
# dest.deep_merge!(source)
# Results: {:x => [1,2,3,4,5,'6'], :y => 2}
# By default, "deep_merge!" will overwrite any unmergeables and merge everything else.
# To avoid this, use "deep_merge" (no bang/exclamation mark)
#
# Options:
# Options are specified in the last parameter passed, which should be in hash format:
# hash.deep_merge!({:x => [1,2]}, {:knockout_prefix => '--'})
# :preserve_unmergeables DEFAULT: false
# Set to true to skip any unmergeable elements from source
# :knockout_prefix DEFAULT: nil
# Set to string value to signify prefix which deletes elements from existing element
# :sort_merged_arrays DEFAULT: false
# Set to true to sort all arrays that are merged together
# :unpack_arrays DEFAULT: nil
# Set to string value to run "Array::join" then "String::split" against all arrays
# :merge_debug DEFAULT: false
# Set to true to get console output of merge process for debugging
#
# Selected Options Details:
# :knockout_prefix => The purpose of this is to provide a way to remove elements
# from existing Hash by specifying them in a special way in incoming hash
# source = {:x => ['--1', '2']}
# dest = {:x => ['1', '3']}
# dest.ko_deep_merge!(source)
# Results: {:x => ['2','3']}
# Additionally, if the knockout_prefix is passed alone as a string, it will cause
# the entire element to be removed:
# source = {:x => '--'}
# dest = {:x => [1,2,3]}
# dest.ko_deep_merge!(source)
# Results: {:x => ""}
# :unpack_arrays => The purpose of this is to permit compound elements to be passed
# in as strings and to be converted into discrete array elements
# irsource = {:x => ['1,2,3', '4']}
# dest = {:x => ['5','6','7,8']}
# dest.deep_merge!(source, {:unpack_arrays => ','})
# Results: {:x => ['1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8'}
# Why: If receiving data from an HTML form, this makes it easy for a checkbox
# to pass multiple values from within a single HTML element
#

# and usages of deep_merge! by just browsing the test examples
