Find the differences between two objects, based on properties and values.

var diffObject = require("can-diff/map/map");

diffMap({a: 1, b: 2}, {b: 3, c: 4})) // ->
  [{key: "a", type: "remove"},
   {key: "b", type: "set": value: 3},
   {key: "c", type: "add", "value": 4}]

Parameters

  1. oldObject {Object}:

    The object to diff from.

  2. newObject {Object}:

    The object to diff to.

Returns

{Array}:

An array of object-patch objects

The object-patch object format has the following keys:

  • type: the type of operation on this property: add, remove, or set
  • key: the mutated property on the new object
  • value: the new value (if type is "add" or "set")
