JSON Diff Node

How difficult would it be to turn this into a n8n node?

Hi @dickhoning,

developing a json diff node shouldn’t be to hard to do if you develop the node using the programattic node style. Inside a programmatic node’s execute function you can load any npm library, e. g. a json diff library. You could follow our Tutorial: Build a programmatic-style node and publish your own community node.

As an inspiration you could look into our Compare Datasets node (github code) which has two inputs to compare two json data inputs.

The zgrossbart/jdd solution you were proposing looks more like a visual browser solution and I don’t see any published npm packages you could use in nodejs. Using an npm package like json-diff would make development much easier.
