# 🎃 json-squash

> Squash JSON-Patch operations patch into a mathematically equivalent smaller patch. Shines the most for array splice and shift patches. Removing a single element from an array, whererver it is in the array, will produce a single operation 🙌

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/alshakero/json-squash.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/alshakero/json-squash)

## Installation

Using npm:
```sh
npm install json-squash --save
```

Using yarn:
```sh
yarn add json-squash
```

## Usage:

```js
const squash = require('json-squash');
// or
import squash from 'json-squash';

const patch = [
{ "op": "add", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 1},
{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 12 },
{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 123 },
{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 1234 },
{ "op": "move", "from": "/a/b/c", "path": "/a/b/d" },
{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/d", "value": 12345 },
];

const squashed = squash(patch);
// ==> [{ "op": "add", "path": "/a/b/d", "value": 12345 }]

// array shift
const obj = {arr: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]};
obj.arr.shift();

// fast-json-patch diff result
const patch = [
{op: "replace", path: "/arr/0", value: 2},
{op: "replace", path: "/arr/1", value: 3},
{op: "replace", path: "/arr/2", value: 4},
{op: "replace", path: "/arr/3", value: 5},
{op: "replace", path: "/arr/4", value: 6},
{op: "remove", path: "/arr/5"}
];

const squashed = squash(patch);
// ==> [{ "op": "remove", "path": "arr/0" }]
```
