htmldiff

This tool compares old and new versions of html and generates color-coded html in a diff format.

Install

Homebrew

brew install kemokemo/tap/htmldiff

scoop install htmldiff

Binary

Get the latest version from the release page, and download the archive file for your operating system/architecture. Unpack the archive, and put the binary somewhere in your $PATH.

Usage

$ htmldiff -h
Usage: htmldiff [<option>...] <old html> <new html>
  -h	display help
  -nh
    	true: use new header, false: use old header (default true)
  -o string
    	output filename (default "diff.html")j

When comparing two html files, you need to choose which header to use. By default, it uses the new header. To use the header of the old html file, set -nh=false flag. ( -nh means "use new header". )

Example

htmldiff -o=diff/index.html v1/index.html v2/index.html

If you use the header of v1/index.html, set -nh=false flag.

htmldiff -o=diff/index.html -nh=false v1/index.html v2/index.html

Information for developers

How to build

It is recommended to build with the go module.

If you don't use the go module, you need to go get the following libraries before building.

• github.com/andybalholm/cascadia

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the authors of these wonderful libraries and tools. Thank you!

Note

Tool packr2 is used to convert template file template/index.html to packrd/packed-packr.go for inclusion in the binary. Tool packr2 is installed as follows.
