Identifying differences between JSON files

DeltaJSON is a powerful toolkit for identifying all the changes within JSON files. Its output is structured JSON, making it ideal for embedding into your web applications or as a stand-alone tool for testing or review.

Reliable differencing, merging and patching

Unlike simple diff tools, DeltaJSON analyses the structure of your JSON files to reliably identify and provide a structured file recording the differences. Read More

What's Included?

Compare

Rather than performing an imprecise line-by-line comparison, DeltaJSON compares two JSON files using an accurate structured approach displaying the changes in a computer-readable JSON result file.

Merge

Analyse the structure of your JSON files by identifying differences and applying sophisticated rules for two-way or three-way automated merging.

Smart Patch

Ever updated a file and then you are given a new version of the original? With Smart Patch you can quickly update the new version with all the updates you have just made! Update multiple similar JSON files with a consistent change.

Graft

Apply any change made in one JSON file to another JSON file. Also termed "cherry picking", where there is a need to cherry pick changes made between two versions in one branch and apply these to the data in another branch.

How Does DeltaJSON Work?

DeltaJSON is a REST API that takes two or more JSON files, analyses their structure and then compares these files to identify the differences between them, returning the results in JSON or XML format.

Its algorithms work through the JSON files, analyzing their structure and matching up all the corresponding elements between them. DeltaJSON identifies all of the differences in your content according to various options you can specify. It then returns them in a format which combines your original content with new metadata detailing the changes.

Embedding DeltaJSON

DeltaJSON is designed for embedding into web applications and systems. It is implemented as a REST API. It can be called remotely or you can run it on the same server as your own software.

JSON files and configuration details are passed through the REST API with the results then returned as an HTTP response.

The output files are optimised for integration into your systems. DeltaJSON can generate a fully standards-compliant JSON patch; it can create a JSON or XML document describing the changes alone, or it can generate a file with all the changes marked-up within the original JSON code.

Powerful tools for change tracking and testing

DeltaJSON is designed for developers and can be readily incorporated into your testing or review processes. Whether you need to verify the output of your own application or submit data files for review, its highly-structured comparisons make it easy to isolate unexpected changes or highlight changes in a browser.

Its REST API can be called by your own scripts and the results easily manipulated and presented in a browser.

Guaranteed dependable results

If you are comparing JSON files for safety or compliance reasons, you can be certain that DeltaJSON will find all the differences between them.
