Create a JSON document.

{{< highlight bash >}}
redis> JSON.SET doc $ '{"obj":{"a":1, "b":2}, "arr":[1,2,3], "str": "foo", "bool": true, "int": 42, "float": 3.14}'
OK
{{< / highlight >}}

{{< highlight bash >}}
redis> JSON.CLEAR doc $.*

{{< / highlight >}}

Get the updated document. Note that numeric values have been set to `0`.

{{< highlight bash >}}
redis> JSON.GET doc $
"[{\"obj\":{},\"arr\":[],\"str\":\"foo\",\"bool\":true,\"int\":0,\"float\":0}]"
{{< / highlight >}}
</details>
