.diff(seq1, seq2, callbacks = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

#diff computes the smallest set of additions and deletions necessary to turn the first sequence into the second, and returns a description of these changes.

See Diff::LCS::DiffCallbacks for the default behaviour. An alternate behaviour may be implemented with Diff::LCS::ContextDiffCallbacks. If a Class argument is provided for callbacks, #diff will attempt to initialise it. If the callbacks object (possibly initialised) responds to #finish, it will be called.

.patch(src, patchset, direction = nil) ⇒ Object

Applies a patchset to the sequence src according to the direction (:patch or :unpatch), producing a new sequence.

If the direction is not specified, Diff::LCS::patch will attempt to discover the direction of the patchset.

A patchset can be considered to apply forward (:patch) if the following expression is true:

patch(s1, diff(s1, s2)) -> s2

A patchset can be considered to apply backward (:unpatch) if the following expression is true:

patch(s2, diff(s1, s2)) -> s1

If the patchset contains no changes, the src value will be returned as either src.dup or src. A patchset can be deemed as having no changes if the following predicate returns true:

patchset.empty? or
  patchset.flatten.all? { |change| change.unchanged? }

Patchsets

A patchset is always an enumerable sequence of changes, hunks of changes, or a mix of the two. A hunk of changes is an enumerable sequence of changes:

[ # patchset
  # change
  [ # hunk
    # change
  ]
]

The patch method accepts patchsets that are enumerable sequences containing either Diff::LCS::Change objects (or a subclass) or the array representations of those objects. Prior to application, array representations of Diff::LCS::Change objects will be reified.

.patch!(src, patchset) ⇒ Object

.sdiff(seq1, seq2, callbacks = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

#sdiff computes all necessary components to show two sequences and their minimized differences side by side, just like the Unix utility sdiff does:

old        <     -
same             same
before     |     after
-          >     new

See Diff::LCS::SDiffCallbacks for the default behaviour. An alternate behaviour may be implemented with Diff::LCS::ContextDiffCallbacks. If a Class argument is provided for callbacks, #diff will attempt to initialise it. If the callbacks object (possibly initialised) responds to #finish, it will be called.

# File 'lib/diff/lcs.rb', line 184

def sdiff(seq1, seq2, callbacks = nil, &block) #:yields diff changes:
  diff_traversal(:sdiff, seq1, seq2, callbacks || Diff::LCS::SDiffCallbacks,
                 &block)
end

.traverse_balanced(seq1, seq2, callbacks = Diff::LCS::BalancedCallbacks) ⇒ Object

#traverse_balanced is an alternative to #traverse_sequences. It uses a different algorithm to iterate through the entries in the computed longest common subsequence. Instead of viewing the changes as insertions or deletions from one of the sequences, #traverse_balanced will report changes between the sequences.

The arguments to #traverse_balanced are the two sequences to traverse and a callback object, like this:

traverse_balanced(seq1, seq2, Diff::LCS::ContextDiffCallbacks.new)

#sdiff is implemented with #traverse_balanced.

Callback Methods

Optional callback methods are emphasized.

callbacks#match

Called when a and b are pointing to common elements in A and B.

callbacks#discard_a

Called when a is pointing to an element not in B.

callbacks#discard_b

Called when b is pointing to an element not in A.

callbacks#change

Called when a and b are pointing to the same relative position, but A[a] and B[b] are not the same; a change has occurred.

#traverse_balanced might be a bit slower than #traverse_sequences, noticable only while processing huge amounts of data.

Algorithm

a---+
    v
A = a b c e h j l m n p
B = b c d e f j k l m r s t
    ^
b---+

Matches

If there are two arrows (a and b) pointing to elements of sequences A and B, the arrows will initially point to the first elements of their respective sequences. #traverse_sequences will advance the arrows through the sequences one element at a time, calling a method on the user-specified callback object before each advance. It will advance the arrows in such a way that if there are elements A[i] and B[j] which are both equal and part of the longest common subsequence, there will be some moment during the execution of #traverse_sequences when arrow a is pointing to A[i] and arrow b is pointing to B[j]. When this happens, #traverse_sequences will call callbacks#match and then it will advance both arrows.

Discards

Otherwise, one of the arrows is pointing to an element of its sequence that is not part of the longest common subsequence. #traverse_sequences will advance that arrow and will call callbacks#discard_a or callbacks#discard_b, depending on which arrow it advanced.

Changes

If both a and b point to elements that are not part of the longest common subsequence, then #traverse_sequences will try to call callbacks#change and advance both arrows. If callbacks#change is not implemented, then callbacks#discard_a and callbacks#discard_b will be called in turn.

The methods for callbacks#match, callbacks#discard_a, callbacks#discard_b, and callbacks#change are invoked with an event comprising the action (“=”, “+”, “-”, or “!”, respectively), the indicies i and j, and the elements A[i] and B[j]. Return values are discarded by #traverse_balanced.

Context

Note that i and j may not be the same index position, even if a and b are considered to be pointing to matching or changed elements.

.traverse_sequences(seq1, seq2, callbacks = Diff::LCS::SequenceCallbacks, &block) ⇒ Object

#traverse_sequences is the most general facility provided by this module; #diff and #lcs are implemented as calls to it.

The arguments to #traverse_sequences are the two sequences to traverse, and a callback object, like this:

traverse_sequences(seq1, seq2, Diff::LCS::ContextDiffCallbacks.new)

Callback Methods

Optional callback methods are emphasized.

callbacks#match

Called when a and b are pointing to common elements in A and B.

callbacks#discard_a

Called when a is pointing to an element not in B.

callbacks#discard_b

Called when b is pointing to an element not in A.

callbacks#finished_a

Called when a has reached the end of sequence A.

callbacks#finished_b

Called when b has reached the end of sequence B.

Algorithm

a---+
    v
A = a b c e h j l m n p
B = b c d e f j k l m r s t
    ^
b---+

If there are two arrows (a and b) pointing to elements of sequences A and B, the arrows will initially point to the first elements of their respective sequences. #traverse_sequences will advance the arrows through the sequences one element at a time, calling a method on the user-specified callback object before each advance. It will advance the arrows in such a way that if there are elements A[i] and B[j] which are both equal and part of the longest common subsequence, there will be some moment during the execution of #traverse_sequences when arrow a is pointing to A[i] and arrow b is pointing to B[j]. When this happens, #traverse_sequences will call callbacks#match and then it will advance both arrows.

Otherwise, one of the arrows is pointing to an element of its sequence that is not part of the longest common subsequence. #traverse_sequences will advance that arrow and will call callbacks#discard_a or callbacks#discard_b, depending on which arrow it advanced. If both arrows point to elements that are not part of the longest common subsequence, then #traverse_sequences will advance one of them and call the appropriate callback, but it is not specified which it will call.

The methods for callbacks#match, callbacks#discard_a, and callbacks#discard_b are invoked with an event comprising the action (“=”, “+”, or “-”, respectively), the indicies i and j, and the elements A[i] and B[j]. Return values are discarded by #traverse_sequences.

End of Sequences

If arrow a reaches the end of its sequence before arrow b does, #traverse_sequence will try to call callbacks#finished_a with the last index and element of A (A[-1]) and the current index and element of B (B[j]). If callbacks#finished_a does not exist, then callbacks#discard_b will be called on each element of B until the end of the sequence is reached (the call will be done with A[-1] and B[j] for each element).

If b reaches the end of B before a reaches the end of A, callbacks#finished_b will be called with the current index and element of A (A[i]) and the last index and element of B (A[-1]). Again, if callbacks#finished_b does not exist on the callback object, then callbacks#discard_a will be called on each element of A until the end of the sequence is reached (A[i] and B[-1]).

There is a chance that one additional callbacks#discard_a or callbacks#discard_b will be called after the end of the sequence is reached, if a has not yet reached the end of A or b has not yet reached the end of B.
