API

General

Both compare functions take the same parameters as input and output the same formatted Object.

Input

dirPath: String

Path to directory.

expectedResult: Object

Expected Object tree, where keys hold the file name with value true, false, or {}:

Output

{
    success: Boolean,
    error: String | null,
    diff: Array<DeepDiff>
}

diff: Array

An Array that holds deep-diff Objects. Showing the difference between the directory structure and the expectedResult.

softCompare(dirPath, expectedResult)

Files may be added, deleted if specified, but can not be altered.

hardCompare(dirPath, expectedResult)

The expectedResult should be the same as the directory structure.
