final class PhabricatorDifferenceEngine
Phabricator Technical Documentation ()

Utility class which encapsulates some shared behavior between different applications which render diffs.

Tasks

Configuring the Engine

  • public function setOldName($old_name) — Set the name to identify the old file with. Primarily cosmetic.
  • public function setNewName($new_name) — Set the name to identify the new file with. Primarily cosmetic.

Generating Diffs

  • public function generateRawDiffFromFileContent($old, $new) — Generate a raw diff from two raw files. This is a lower-level API than @{method:generateChangesetFromFileContent}, but may be useful if you need to use a custom parser configuration, as with Diffusion.
  • public function generateChangesetFromFileContent($old, $new) — Generate an @{class:DifferentialChangeset} from two raw files. This is principally useful because you can feed the output to @{class:DifferentialChangesetParser} in order to render it.

Other Methods

Methods

public function setOldName($old_name)

Set the name to identify the old file with. Primarily cosmetic.

Parameters
string$old_nameOld file name.
Return
this

public function setNewName($new_name)

Set the name to identify the new file with. Primarily cosmetic.

Parameters
string$new_nameNew file name.
Return
this

public function setNormalize($normalize)

This method is not documented.
Parameters
$normalize
Return
wild

public function getNormalize()

This method is not documented.
Return
wild

public function generateRawDiffFromFileContent($old, $new)

Generate a raw diff from two raw files. This is a lower-level API than generateChangesetFromFileContent(), but may be useful if you need to use a custom parser configuration, as with Diffusion.

Parameters
string$oldEntire previous file content.
string$newEntire current file content.
Return
stringRaw diff between the two files.

public function generateChangesetFromFileContent($old, $new)

Generate an DifferentialChangeset from two raw files. This is principally useful because you can feed the output to DifferentialChangesetParser in order to render it.

Parameters
string$oldEntire previous file content.
string$newEntire current file content.
Return
@{class:DifferentialChangeset}Synthetic changeset.

private function normalizeFile($corpus)

This method is not documented.
Parameters
$corpus
Return
wild
