Object & string diff rendering for all displays
npm install unfunk-diff  
> Object & String diff formatter for all displays
The diff renderers on npm (either object diff or string diffs) are not usable on displays without colour support. Object diffs usually lack a string diff representation which makes it difficult to spot subtle changes in string values deep in the objects structure. Unfunk-diff aims to integrate both to allow debugging of object and string differences, optionally without colour support.
* String-diff algorithm is jsDiff.
* Object-diff algorithm is objectDiff with nested string-diff. May currently be even stricter then your assertions!
* Style output abstracted by ministyle.
See the travis-ci build log for various examples (tests displayed with mocha-unfunk-reporter).
Install from npm:
```
$ npm install unfunk-diff
(it could work browser except I never got around to fix that)
Minimal:
``js``
console.log(formatter.ansi(valueA, valueB));
console.log(formatter.plain(valueA, valueB));
Full version:
``js
// get the constructor
var DiffFormatter = require('unfunk-diff').DiffFormatter;
// get a ministyle
var style = require('ministyle').css();
// pass the ministyle and line wrapping width
var formatter = new DiffFormatter(style, 80);
// get the wrapped diff
var str = formatter.getStyledDiff(valueA, valueB);
console.log(str);
