This module should be included (built-in) within your Python installation, and you thus don't need to install any external modules as we did when working with PDF and Excel files, for instance. The module used for this purpose is the json module.
In the following image, the black letters are the longest common subsequence, the red letters only occur in the first sequence, and the green letters only occur in the second sequence. Just to let the world know that I have just created jsondiff.py, which is very simple Python script to generate a JSON of differences between two JSON files. Python makes it simple to work with JSON files. Once you have the longest common subsequences, you can derive the changes (inserts, updates, and deletions) from that.
So (ABD) and (ACD) are their longest common subsequences. They have 5 length-2 common subsequences: (AB), (AC), (AD), (BD), and (CD) 2 length-3 common subsequences: (ABD) and (ACD) and no longer common subsequences. From Wikipedia:įor example, consider the sequences (ABCD) and (ACBAD). The JSON produced by this module’s default settings (in particular, the default separators value) is also a subset of YAML 1.0 and 1.1. This algorithm finds the longest subsequence that is common to two provided subsequences. Detection of inserted and removed items can be achieved using an algorithm called the longest common subsequence (LCS). Choose between comparing, merging, patching and grafting your JSON data. The algorithm would simply report all array items as changed, starting from the place where an item is removed or inserted. However, this approach cannot deal with the case when an array item is inserted or removed. A naive approach will simply compare the array items one by one. Right click the first file and Select for Compare. When a property contains a nested object, the function will recursively compare these child objects.Ĭomparing two arrays requires some more work. This is the quickest, easiest way to bring up the diff panels. When both sides are an object, the algorithm will collect the unique keys of both objects, and then iterate over those, checking whether the left and right property have the same value. My goal is to compare the first file to the second file and if the first file has a JSON object where the name key doesnt match any of the objects name keys in the second file then it gets added to the second file. The function checks the type left and right document. In the other file I have a bunch of JSON objects from an HTTP GET request. Julia results (without strings in JSON): file loaded and read: elapsed time: 0.484029716 seconds Parsing JSON from string: elapsed time: 6.738140036 seconds (441511036 bytes allocated) Parsing JSON directly from file: elapsed time: 14.05050392 seconds (534468676 bytes allocated) Generating JSON: elapsed time: 3. The algorithm to compare two JSON documents works as follows. The json library has a json.dumps() method that serializes data into JSON format.
