A Scala library to extract differences between two objects. This makes easy finding out what changes are applied on the old object.
Quick example:
// Using Ammonite-REPL
@ import $ivy.`net.petitviolet::generic-diff:<VERSION>`
@ import net.petitviolet.generic.diff._
...
@ case class User(id: Long, name: String)
defined class User
@ User(1L, "alice") diff User(1L, "bob")
res2: DiffResult[User] = DiffResult(List(FieldSame("id", 1L), FieldDiff("name", "alice", "bob")))
libraryDependencies += "net.petitviolet" %% "generic-diff" % "<version>"
import net.petitviolet.generic.diff._
case class User(id: Long, name: String, age: Int)
case class GroupName(value: String)
case class Group(id: Long, name: GroupName)
def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
// extract difference between 2 objects
val userDiff = User(1L, "alice", 20) diff User(2L, "alice", 35)
// result contains sequence of FieldDiff and FieldSame
assert(userDiff.fields == List(FieldDiff("id", 1, 2), FieldSame("name", "alice"), FieldDiff("age", 20, 35)))
// dynamic field access
assert(userDiff.name == FieldSame("name", "alice"))
assert(userDiff.age == FieldDiff("age", 20, 35))
// userDiff.foo // compile error!
// extract diff from nested objects
val groupDiff = Group(1, GroupName("tech")) diff Group(2L, GroupName("hoge"))
assert(
groupDiff.fields == List(
FieldDiff("id", 1, 2),
FieldDiff("name", GroupName("tech"), GroupName("hoge"))
)
)
}
