DiffUtils

DiffUtils.diff(x1, x2; stdout=stdout, side_by_side=true, color=true, options...)

Prints the diff of the string representations of x1 and x2.

Optionally, stdout specifies the stream which the output of diff gets written to.

julia> DiffUtils.diff("foo", "bar")
foo							      |	bar

For further details on the supported options, see diff(::Function).

DiffUtils.diff(f::Function; stdout=stdout, side_by_side=true, color=true, options...)

Takes a function f which gets passed two output streams and may write to them. The resulting contents are then passed to diff.

Optionally, stdout specifies the stream which the output of diff gets written to.

julia> DiffUtils.diff() do s1, s2
           println(s1, "foo")
           println(s2, "bar")
       end
foo							      |	bar
