Generate JSON Patch (IETF RFC-6902).

This library allows you generate json-patch in PHP.

Installation

$ composer require ridvanaltun/json-patch-generator

Usage

<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use ridvanaltun\JsonPatchGenerator\Utils;

$utils = new Utils();

$oldSnap = [
  'name'    => 'foo',
  'surname' => 'bar',
  'skils'   => [
    'computer_science' => true,
    'algorithm'        => true,
    'math'             => false,
  ],
  'specs'   => [
    'a',
    'b',
    'c',
  ]
];

$currSnap = [
  'name'  => 'foo',
  'age'   => 23,
  'skils' => [
    'computer_science' => true,
    'algorithm'        => false,
  ],
  'specs' => [
    'a',
    'b',
    'd',
    'e',
  ]
];

$jsonPatch = $utils->generateJsonPatch($currSnap, $oldSnap);

var_dump($jsonPatch);
