# jsondiff
This is a first cut of a simple JSON diff utility, inspired by the usefulness
and simplicity of [trentm/json](https://github.com/trentm/json).
## Usage
Install node.js, then simply call the script on two JSON files, like so:
```bash
jsondiff left.json right.json
```
## License
ISC. See the header in the source.
## Examples
### Array Diff
Left:
```json
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]
```
Right:
```json
[1,2,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,5,5,5,19,20]
```
Diff:
```diff
[
1,
2,
- 3,
- 4,
- 5,
6,
7,
8,
9,
10,

+ 5,

+ 5,
19,

]
```
### Object Diff
Left:
```json
{
"c": 6,
"aa": 7,
"y": "diff all the things!",
"z": true,
"removed": {
"red": true,
"green": false,
"blue": false
},
"common": {
"john": 4,
"still here": true
},
"equal": "!!!!",
"wasarray": [ 1, 2 ,3 ,4],
"stillisarray": [ 1, 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 0, 2, 3, 2, 3, 5, 9]
}
```
Right:
```json
{
"y": "DIFF ALL THE THINGS!",
"c": null,
"aa": 5,
"b": false,
"z": true,
"e": {
"john": 5,
"mary": 6,

"wasarray": { "test": "5" },
"stillisarray": [ 3, 4, 0, 2, 3, 4, 6, 4, 2, 3, 5, 9]
}
```
Diff:
```diff
