FUNCTIONS

       looks_like_path($str)
           Returns 1 if the given string is a path, 0 otherwise.  Only recognizes
           Catmandu::Path::simple paths prefixed with a dollar sign at the moment.

               looks_like_path("$.foo.bar.$append")
               # => 1
               looks_like_path("waffles")
               # => 0

       as_path($str, $type)
           Helper function that returns a Catmandu::Path instance for the given path string.  The
           optional $type argument gives preliminary support for alternative path implementations
           and defaults to 'simple'.

               as_path("$.foo.bar.$append")
               # is equivalent to
               Catmandu::Path::simple->new(path => "$.foo.bar.$append");
