# html-differ [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/bem/html-differ.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/bem/html-differ) [![Coverage Status](https://img.shields.io/coveralls/bem/html-differ.svg)](https://coveralls.io/r/bem/html-differ?branch=master) [![Dependency Status](https://david-dm.org/bem/html-differ.svg)](https://david-dm.org/bem/html-differ) [![devDependency Status](https://david-dm.org/bem/html-differ/dev-status.svg)](https://david-dm.org/bem/html-differ#info=devDependencies)

Сompares two HTML.
<!-- toc -->
* <a href="#bla">bla</a>
* <a href="#bla-1">bla</a>
* <a href="#bla-2">bla</a>

## The comparison algorithm

**html-differ** compares HTML using the following criteria:
<a name="bla"></a>
# bla

* `<!DOCTYPE>` declarations are case-insensitive, so the following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:
<a name="bla-1"></a>
###### bla

```html
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "_PUBLIC" "_SYSTEM">
```

```html
<!doctype html public "_PUBLIC" "_SYSTEM">
```

* Whitespaces (spaces, tabs, new lines etc.) inside start and end tags are ignored during the comparison.

For example, the following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<span id="1"></span>
```

```html
<span id=
"1" ></span >
```

* Two respective lists of attributes are considered to be equivalent even if they are specified in different order.

For example, the following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<span id="blah" class="ololo" tabIndex="1">Text</span>
```

```html
<span tabIndex="1" id="blah" class="ololo">Text</span>
```

* Two respective attributes `class` are considered to be equivalent if they refer to the same groups of CSS styles.

For example, the following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<span class="ab bc cd">Text</span>
```

```html
<span class=" cd ab bc">Text</span>
```

**CAUTION!**<br>
**html-differ** does not check the validity of HTML, but compares them using the above shown criteria and specified options (see the list of possible options in the [API](https://github.com/bem/html-differ#api)).

## Install

```bash
$ npm install html-differ -g
```

## API

###HtmlDiffer###

```js
var HtmlDiffer = require('html-differ').HtmlDiffer,
htmlDiffer = new HtmlDiffer(options);
```

where `options` is an object:

* **ignoreAttributes: [ Array ]**

Sets what kind of respective attributes' content will be ignored during the comparison (default: `[]`).

**Example**: `['id', 'for']`<br>
The following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<label for="random">Text</label>
<input id="random">
```

```html
<label for="sfsdfksdf">Text</label>
<input id="sfsdfksdf">
```

* **compareAttributesAsJSON: [ Array ]**

Sets what kind of respective attributes' content will be compared as JSON objects, but not as strings (default: `[]`).<br>
In cases when the value of the attribute is an invalid JSON or can not be wrapped into a function, it will be compared as `undefined`.

**Example**: `[{ name: 'data', isFunction: false }, { name: 'onclick', isFunction: true }]`<br>
The following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<div data='{"bla":{"first":"ololo","second":"trololo"}}'></div>
<span onclick='return {"aaa":"bbb","bbb":"aaa"}'></span>

<button data='REALLY BAD JSON'></button>
<button onclick='REALLY BAD FUNCTION'></button>
```

```html
<div data='{"bla":{"second":"trololo","first":"ololo"}}'></div>
<span onclick='return {"bbb":"aaa","aaa":"bbb"}'></span>

<button data='undefined'></button>
<button onclick='undefined'></button>
```

**REMARK!**<br>
The first element of the array could be written in a short form as string:<br>
`['data', { name: 'onclick', isFunction: true }]`.

* **ignoreWhitespaces: Boolean**

Makes **html-differ** ignore whitespaces (spaces, tabs, new lines etc.) during the comparison (default: `true`).

**Example**: `true`<br>
The following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<html>Text Text<head lang="en"><title></title></head><body>Text</body></html>
```

```html
<html>
Text Text
<head lang="en">
<title> </title>


</head>

<body>
Text

</body>




</html>

```

* **ignoreComments: Boolean**

Makes **html-differ** ignore HTML comments during the comparison (default: `true`).

**Example**: `true`<br>
The following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<!-- comments1 -->
<html>
<head lang="en">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title><!-- comments2 --></title>
</head>
<body>
Text<!-- comments3 -->
</body>
</html>
```

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
<head lang="en">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
Text
</body>
</html>
```

* **ignoreEndTags: Boolean**

Makes **html-differ** ignore end tags during the comparison (default: `false`).

**Example**: `true`<br>
The following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<span>Text</span>
```

```html
<span>Text</spane>
```

* **ignoreDuplicateAttributes: Boolean**

Makes **html-differ** ignore tags' duplicate attributes during the comparison.<br>
From the list of the same tag's attributes, the attribute which goes the first will be taken for comparison, others will be ignored (default: `false`).

**Example**: `true`<br>
For example, the following two code samples will be considered to be equivalent:

```html
<span id="blah" id="ololo">Text</span>
```

```html
<span id="blah">Text</span>
```

**BEM preset**

You can set predefined options for [BEM](http://bem.info/) using the _preset_:

```js
var HtmlDiffer = require('html-differ').HtmlDiffer,
htmlDiffer = new HtmlDiffer('bem');
```

The options wiil be predefined:

```js
{
ignoreAttributes: ['id', 'for', 'aria-labelledby', 'aria-describedby'],
compareAttributesAsJSON: [
'data-bem',
{ name: 'onclick', isFunction: true },
{ name: 'ondblclick', isFunction: true }
],
ignoreWhitespaces: true,
ignoreComments: true,
ignoreEndTags: false,
ignoreDuplicateAttributes: false
}
```
