dee-diff example.js

// This example shows that deep-diff reports arrays of objects with different sort order as "edit" diffs:

var diff = require('deep-diff').diff;

var lhs = {
    name: 'my object',
    details: {
        it: 'has',
        an: 'array',
        with: [{'a': 1}, {'a': 2}, {'a': 3}]
    }
};

var rhs = {
    name: 'my object',
    details: {
        with: [{'a': 3}, {'a': 2}, {'a': 1}],
        it: 'has',
        an: 'array',
    }
};

var differences = diff(lhs, rhs);

console.log(JSON.stringify(differences, null, 2));
