lodash-mixin-diff-value

This is a lodash mixin for getting a JSON object that rappresent the value variation of a JSON respect another.

Installation

npm install lodash-mixin-diff-value

Usage

const _ = require('lodash');
const differenceValues = require('lodash-mixin-diff-value');

_.mixin({ differenceValues });

const diff = _.differenceValues(editedJson, originalJson[, options]);

options is a json with the fields:

Field: extract

• only-add: will return only field that occurs in editedJson and not in originalJson
• only-remove: will return only field that not occurs in editedJson and are in originalJson
• only-changed: will return only field that occurs in editedJson and originalJson too
• only-add-change: like only-add + only-changed

Field: dateCheck

If true: activate deep controls for the date object and strings. The input are evaluated with the options.dateFormatIn format and compared using the options.dateFormatOut format. This will enable you to read corectly a date in a format like options.dateFormatIn: yyyy-MM-dd but consider the date changed only if the year and month change options.dateFormatOut: yyyy-MM.

If false: only Date objects are evaluated as date.toISOString() for comparison.

Field: dateFormat

This format let you to execute the diff value on portion of the date string not only on the complete date. This cost in performance because all the string will be checked if match with this format.

Test

For run the tests simply execute:

npm test

Example

See test for more examples.

const oldObj = {
  a: 'b',
  arr: [1, 2, 3, { a: 111 }],
  more: 'more',
  intarr: [1, 2, 3, 4],
  newarr: [{ k: 'XXX' }, { k: 'val' }, 3333],
  arrtwo: [{ k: 'nod' }, { k: 'val' }],
  json: { a: 'a', b: 'b', c: 'c', d: { deep: [12, 3, { mode: 'deep' }] } },
  o: { sub: 'json' },
};

const newObj = {
  a: 'b',
  arr: [1, 22, 3, { a: 111, q: 'none' }],
  intarr: [1, 2, 3, 4],
  newarr: [{ k: 'XXX' }, { k: 'val' }, 3333],
  arrtwo: [{ k: 'XXX' }, { k: 'val' }, 3333],
  json: { a: 'a', b: 'b', c: 'c', d: { deep: [12, 333, { mode: 'deeper' }] } },
  o: { sub: 'json' },
};

const out = _.differenceValues(newObj, oldObj);

// Will print out:
{
  "arr": [
    22,
    {
      "q": "none"
    }
  ],
  "arrtwo": [
    {
      "k": "XXX"
    },
    3333
  ],
  "json": {
    "d": {
      "deep": [
        333,
        {
          "mode": "deeper"
        }
