createDiff(JsonStructure, JsonStructure)

createDiff

public JsonPatch createDiff(JsonStructure source,
                            JsonStructure target)

Create a JsonPatch by comparing the source to the target as defined in RFC-6902. Applying this JsonPatch to the source you will give you the target.

createMergePatch

public JsonMergePatch createMergePatch(JsonValue patch)

Create a merge patch based on the given JsonValue. If you have the following JsonMergePatch:

 {
   "a":"z",
   "c": {
     "f": null
   }
 }
 

and apply it to the following JSON

 {
   "a": "b",

createMergeDiff

public JsonMergePatch createMergeDiff(JsonValue source,
                                      JsonValue target)

Create a merge patch by comparing the source to the target. Applying this JsonMergePatch to the source will give you the target. A MergePatch is a JsonValue as defined in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396 If you have a JSON like

 {
   "a": "b",
   "c": {
     "d": "e",
     "f": "g"
   }
 }
 

and comparing it with

 {
   "a": "z",
   "c": {
     "d": "e",
   }
 }
 

you will get the following JsonMergePatch:

 {
   "a":"z",
   "c": {
     "f": null
   }
 }
