What is the behavior if a JSON path is an array, object or literal in different cases?

[jpmckinney]

I expect an error as behavior is undefined – but better if the error is human-readable and clear to a user.

[jpmckinney]

If the path is inconsistent across top-level objects, it works as follows:

[
    {
        "foo": "bar"
    },
    {
        "foo": {
            "baz": "bzz"
        }
    },
    {
        "foo": [
            {
                "zzz": 1
            }
        ]
    }
]

yields:

main.csv

_link,_link_main,foo,foo_baz
1,1,bar,
2,2,,bzz
3,3,,

foo.csv

_link,_link_main,zzz
3.foo.0,3,1

Inconsistency across deeper objects yields the same as above (with different files and link columns):

[
    {
        "array": [
            {
            "foo": "bar"
            },
            {
                "foo": {
                    "baz": "bzz"
                }
            },
            {
                "foo": [
                    {
                        "zzz": 1
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
]

More work needs to be done on documenting output format. #5

However, the above is intended behaviour as I wanted to accept the most amount of possible input data, even with inconsistant keys. Probably a warning would be useful though.

Closing not fixed will be part of #5.
