To compare JSON objects containing asset metadata for a digital library. Upon change of any metadata, we'd store these changes as an audit trail and email asset stakeholders for review and approval of the changes.
npm install diffleroriginal and updated are two JSON objects for comparison.
If same: returns {} (empty object)
If different: A JSON object with preserved path structure. The resulting values will be an object with from and to fields.
import diffler from 'diffler';
const before = { name: 'omgaz', location: 'London' };
const after = { name: 'omgaz', location: 'Melbourne' };
const difference = diffler(before, after);
console.log(difference); // { location: { from: 'London', to: 'Melbourne' } }const diffler = require('diffler');
const before = { name: 'omgaz', location: 'London' };
const after = { name: 'omgaz', location: 'Melbourne' };
const difference = diffler(before, after);
console.log(difference); // { location: { from: 'London', to: 'Melbourne' } }Requires Node 18+.
