sebastian/diff
Diff implementation for PHP, factored out of PHPUnit into a stand-alone component.
Installation
You can add this library as a local, per-project dependency to your project using Composer:
composer require sebastian/diff
If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency:
composer require --dev sebastian/diff
Usage
Generating diff
The Differ class can be used to generate a textual representation of the difference between two strings:
<?php
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Differ;
$differ = new Differ;
print $differ->diff('foo', 'bar');
The code above yields the output below:
--- Original
+++ New
@@ @@
-foo
+bar
There are three output builders available in this package:
UnifiedDiffOutputBuilder
This is default builder, which generates the output close to udiff and is used by PHPUnit.
<?php
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Differ;
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Output\UnifiedDiffOutputBuilder;
$builder = new UnifiedDiffOutputBuilder(
"--- Original\n+++ New\n", // custom header
false // do not add line numbers to the diff
);
$differ = new Differ($builder);
print $differ->diff('foo', 'bar');
StrictUnifiedDiffOutputBuilder
Generates (strict) Unified diff's (unidiffs) with hunks, similar to diff -u and compatible with patch and git apply.
<?php
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Differ;
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Output\StrictUnifiedDiffOutputBuilder;
$builder = new StrictUnifiedDiffOutputBuilder([
'collapseRanges' => true, // ranges of length one are rendered with the trailing `,1`
'commonLineThreshold' => 6, // number of same lines before ending a new hunk and creating a new one (if needed)
'contextLines' => 3, // like `diff: -u, -U NUM, --unified[=NUM]`, for patch/git apply compatibility best to keep at least @ 3
'fromFile' => null,
'fromFileDate' => null,
'toFile' => null,
'toFileDate' => null,
]);
$differ = new Differ($builder);
print $differ->diff('foo', 'bar');
DiffOnlyOutputBuilder
Output only the lines that differ.
<?php
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Differ;
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Output\DiffOnlyOutputBuilder;
$builder = new DiffOnlyOutputBuilder(
"--- Original\n+++ New\n"
);
$differ = new Differ($builder);
print $differ->diff('foo', 'bar');
DiffOutputBuilderInterface
You can pass any output builder to the Differ class as longs as it implements the DiffOutputBuilderInterface.
Parsing diff
The Parser class can be used to parse a unified diff into an object graph:
use SebastianBergmann\Diff\Parser;
use SebastianBergmann\Git;
$git = new Git('/usr/local/src/money');
$diff = $git->getDiff(
'948a1a07768d8edd10dcefa8315c1cbeffb31833',
'c07a373d2399f3e686234c4f7f088d635eb9641b'
);
$parser = new Parser;
print_r($parser->parse($diff));
The code above yields the output below:
