HTML Diffing in JavaScript

htmldiff.js is a JavaScript port of https://github.com/myobie/htmldiff by Keanu Lee at Inkling.

This is diffing that understands HTML. Best suited for cases when you want to show a diff of user-generated HTML (like from a wysiwyg editor).

Usage (JavaScript)

You use it like this:

  diff = require('htmldiff.js');
  console.log(diff('<p>this is some text</p>', '<p>this is some more text</p>'));

And you get:

<p>this is some <ins>more </ins>text</p>

Usage (TypeScript)

  import diff = require("htmldiff");
  console.log(diff("<p>this is some text</p>", "<p>this is some more text</p>"));

diff is just an arbitry name for the exported default module function, you can use any other name you like, e. g.:

  import diffHTML = require("htmldiff");
  console.log(diffHTML("<p>this is some text</p>", "<p>this is some more text</p>"));

Module

It should be multi-module aware. ie. it should work as a node.js module or an AMD (RequireJS) module, or even just as a script tag.
