Build Status Code Coverage version downloads MIT License PRs Welcome

A small library that can deep diff two JavaScript Objects, including nested structures of arrays and objects.

Installation

yarn add deep-object-diff

npm i --save deep-object-diff

Functions available:

Importing

ES6 / Babel:

import { diff, addedDiff, deletedDiff, updatedDiff, detailedDiff } from 'deep-object-diff';

ES5:

const { diff, addedDiff, deletedDiff, detailedDiff, updatedDiff } = require("deep-object-diff");

// OR

const diff = require("deep-object-diff").diff;
const addedDiff = require("deep-object-diff").addedDiff;
const deletedDiff = require("deep-object-diff").deletedDiff;
const detailedDiff = require("deep-object-diff").detailedDiff;
const updatedDiff = require("deep-object-diff").updatedDiff;

Usage:

diff:

const lhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a', 'b'],
      b: 2,
      c: ['x', 'y'],
      e: 100 // deleted
    }
  },
  buzz: 'world'
};

const rhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a'], // index 1 ('b')  deleted
      b: 2, // unchanged
      c: ['x', 'y', 'z'], // 'z' added
      d: 'Hello, world!' // added
    }
  },
  buzz: 'fizz' // updated
};

console.log(diff(lhs, rhs)); // =>
/*
{
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: {
        '1': undefined
      },
      c: {
        '2': 'z'
      },
      d: 'Hello, world!',
      e: undefined
    }
  },
  buzz: 'fizz'
}
*/

addedDiff:

const lhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a', 'b'],
      b: 2,
      c: ['x', 'y'],
      e: 100 // deleted
    }
  },
  buzz: 'world'
};

const rhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a'], // index 1 ('b')  deleted
      b: 2, // unchanged
      c: ['x', 'y', 'z'], // 'z' added
      d: 'Hello, world!' // added
    }
  },
  buzz: 'fizz' // updated
};

console.log(addedDiff(lhs, rhs));

/*
{
  foo: {
    bar: {
      c: {
        '2': 'z'
      },
      d: 'Hello, world!'
    }
  }
}
*/

deletedDiff:

const lhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a', 'b'],
      b: 2,
      c: ['x', 'y'],
      e: 100 // deleted
    }
  },
  buzz: 'world'

const rhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a'], // index 1 ('b')  deleted
      b: 2, // unchanged
      c: ['x', 'y', 'z'], // 'z' added
      d: 'Hello, world!' // added
    }
  },
  buzz: 'fizz' // updated
};

console.log(deletedDiff(lhs, rhs));

/*
{
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: {
        '1': undefined
      },
      e: undefined
    }
  }
}

updatedDiff:

const lhs = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      a: ['a', 'b'],
      b: 2,
      c: ['x', 'y'],
      e: 100 // deleted

    bar: {
      a: ['a', 'b'],
      b: 2,
      c: ['x', 'y'],
