jsdiff implementation in Angular 4


How to implement diff-match-patch or jsdiff in Angular 4?

I've tried

import DiffMatchPatch from 'diff-match-patch'

const dmp = new DiffMatchPatch()
const diff = dmp.diff_main('dogs bark', 'cats bark', null, null)
this.foo = diff

and binding it by

<div [innerHtml]="foo"></div>

but still don't really know how to bind result to my.component.html. Example above doesn't work as well


Solution

  • You can use jsDiff like so:

    import * as jsdiff from 'diff'
    
    ...
    
    const diff = jsdiff.diffLines(str1, str2)
