=head1 NAME
Text::Diff - Perform diffs on files and record sets
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Text::Diff;
## Mix and match filenames, strings, file handles, producer subs,
## or arrays of records; returns diff in a string.
## WARNING: can return B<large> diffs for large files.
my $diff = diff "file1.txt", "file2.txt", { STYLE => "Context" };
my $diff = diff \$string1, \$string2, \%options;
my $diff = diff \*FH1, \*FH2;
my $diff = diff \&reader1, \&reader2;
my $diff = diff \@records1, \@records2;
## May also mix input types:
my $diff = diff \@records1, "file_B.txt";
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<diff()> provides a basic set of services akin to the GNU C<diff> utility. It
is not anywhere near as feature complete as GNU C<diff>, but it is better
integrated with Perl and available on all platforms. It is often faster than
shelling out to a system's C<diff> executable for small files, and generally
slower on larger files.
Relies on L<Algorithm::Diff> for, well, the algorithm. This may not produce
the same exact diff as a system's local C<diff> executable, but it will be a
valid diff and comprehensible by C<patch>. We haven't seen any differences
between L<Algorithm::Diff>'s logic and GNU C<diff>'s, but we have not examined
them to make sure they are indeed identical.
B<Note>: If you don't want to import the C<diff> function, do one of the
following:
use Text::Diff ();
require Text::Diff;
That's a pretty rare occurrence,
so C<diff()> is exported by default.
If you pass a filename, but the file can't be read,
then C<diff()> will C<croak>.
=head1 OPTIONS
C<diff()> takes two parameters from which to draw input and a set of
options to control its output. The options are:
=over
=item FILENAME_A, MTIME_A, FILENAME_B, MTIME_B
The name of the file and the modification time "files".
These are filled in automatically for each file when C<diff()> is passed a
filename, unless a defined value is passed in.
If a filename is not passed in and FILENAME_A and FILENAME_B are not provided
or are C<undef>, the header will not be printed.
Unused on C<OldStyle> diffs.
=item OFFSET_A, OFFSET_B
The index of the first line / element. These default to 1 for all
parameter types except ARRAY references, for which the default is 0. This
is because ARRAY references are presumed to be data structures, while the
others are line-oriented text.
=item STYLE
"Unified", "Context", "OldStyle", or an object or class reference for a class
providing C<file_header()>, C<hunk_header()>, C<hunk()>, C<hunk_footer()> and
C<file_footer()> methods. The two footer() methods are provided for
overloading only; none of the formats provide them.
Defaults to "Unified" (unlike standard C<diff>, but Unified is what's most
often used in submitting patches and is the most human readable of the three.
If the package indicated by the STYLE has no C<hunk()> method, C<diff()> will
load it automatically (lazy loading). Since all such packages should inherit
from C<Text::Diff::Base>, this should be marvy.
Styles may be specified as class names (C<STYLE =E<gt> 'Foo'>),
in which case they will be C<new()>ed with no parameters,
or as objects (C<STYLE =E<gt> Foo-E<gt>new>).
=item CONTEXT
How many lines before and after each diff to display. Ignored on old-style
diffs. Defaults to 3.
=item OUTPUT
Examples and their equivalent subroutines:
OUTPUT => \*FOOHANDLE, # like: sub { print FOOHANDLE shift() }
OUTPUT => \$output, # like: sub { $output .= shift }
OUTPUT => \@output, # like: sub { push @output, shift }
OUTPUT => sub { $output .= shift },
If no C<OUTPUT> is supplied, returns the diffs in a string. If
C<OUTPUT> is a C<CODE> ref, it will be called once with the (optional)
file header, and once for each hunk body with the text to emit. If
C<OUTPUT> is an L<IO::Handle>, output will be emitted to that handle.
=item FILENAME_PREFIX_A, FILENAME_PREFIX_B
The string to print before the filename in the header. Unused on C<OldStyle>
diffs. Defaults are C<"---">, C<"+++"> for Unified and C<"***">, C<"+++"> for
Context.
=item KEYGEN, KEYGEN_ARGS
These are passed to L<Algorithm::Diff/traverse_sequences>.
=back
B<Note>: if neither C<FILENAME_> option is defined, the header will not be
printed. If at least one is present, the other and both C<MTIME_> options must
be present or "Use of undefined variable" warnings will be generated (except
on C<OldStyle> diffs, which ignores these options).
=head1 Formatting Classes
These functions implement the output formats. They are grouped in to classes
so C<diff()> can use class names to call the correct set of output routines and
so that you may inherit from them easily. There are no constructors or
instance methods for these classes, though subclasses may provide them if need
be.
Each class has C<file_header()>, C<hunk_header()>, C<hunk()>, and C<footer()>
methods identical to those documented in the C<Text::Diff::Unified> section.
C<header()> is called before the C<hunk()> is first called, C<footer()>
afterwards. The default footer function is an empty method provided for
overloading:
sub footer { return "End of patch\n" }
Some output formats are provided by external modules (which are loaded
automatically), such as L<Text::Diff::Table>. These are
are documented here to keep the documentation simple.
=head2 Text::Diff::Base
Returns "" for all methods (other than C<new()>).

=item Text::Diff::Unified::file_header
$s = Text::Diff::Unified->file_header( $options );
Returns a string containing a unified header. The sole parameter is the
C<options> hash passed in to C<diff()>, containing at least:
FILENAME_A => $fn1,
MTIME_A => $mtime1,
FILENAME_B => $fn2,
MTIME_B => $mtime2
May also contain
FILENAME_PREFIX_A => "---",
FILENAME_PREFIX_B => "+++",
to override the default prefixes (default values shown).
=item Text::Diff::Unified::hunk_header
Text::Diff::Unified->hunk_header( \@ops, $options );
Returns a string containing the heading of one hunk of unified diff.
=item Text::Diff::Unified::hunk
Text::Diff::Unified->hunk( \@seq_a, \@seq_b, \@ops, $options );
Returns a string containing the output of one hunk of unified diff.

This format also goes to some pains to highlight "invisible" characters on
differing elements by selectively escaping whitespace:

=head1 LIMITATIONS
Must suck both input files entirely in to memory and store them with a normal
amount of Perlish overhead (one array location) per record. This is implied by
the implementation of L<Algorithm::Diff>, which takes two arrays. If
L<Algorithm::Diff> ever offers an incremental mode, this can be changed
(contact the maintainers of L<Algorithm::Diff> and C<Text::Diff> if you need
this; it shouldn't be too terribly hard to tie arrays in this fashion).
Does not provide most of the more refined GNU C<diff> options: recursive
directory tree scanning, ignoring blank lines / whitespace, etc., etc. These
can all be added as time permits and need arises, many are rather easy; patches
quite welcome.
Uses closures internally, this may lead to leaks on Perl versions 5.6.1 and
prior if used many times over a process' life time.
=head1 SEE ALSO

used by C<Text::Diff>.
L<YAML::Diff> - find difference between two YAML documents.
L<HTML::Differences> - find difference between two HTML documents.
This uses a more sane approach than L<HTML::Diff>.

L<Array::Diff> - find the differences between two Perl arrays.
