Support displaying only areas of diff #6
Description
First of all, great library! This is a tricky problem to solve and it's done very nicely in jsondiff!
Now, I am diffing very large JSON files, and I would like to only output the actual differences, not the entire doc if possible.
I couldn't see an existing way to do this, but if there is, please let me know!
Either a config setting that would allow you to display X lines/objects above and below each diff, or potentially a way to roll up previous fields?
The roll-up would ideally look something like this:
From online demo:
{
"content": [
{
"align": "center",
"content": [
{
"content": "And please, feel free to send us your feedback and comments to ",
"style": {
"bold": 2,
"color": "FFFFFF",
- "fontFamily": "Arial",
"italic": 2,
+ "name": "Arial",
"size": 20,
~ "underline": 1 => 2
}
},
...
Rolled up:
{
"content": [
{
"content": [
{
"style": {
"bold": 2,
"color": "FFFFFF",
- "fontFamily": "Arial",
"italic": 2,
+ "name": "Arial",
"size": 20,
~ "underline": 1 => 2
}
},
...
Or potentially by separating parent objects using a dot notation:
content.content.style {
"bold": 2,
"color": "FFFFFF",
- "fontFamily": "Arial",
"italic": 2,
+ "name": "Arial",
"size": 20,
~ "underline": 1 => 2
}
It's a tricky one, but to start with, just having an option to say, only display X lines above and below the change, might be enough!
