是否有一种方法可以在JavaScript中返回两个数组之间的差异?

例如:

var a1 = ['a', 'b'];
var a2 = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];

// need ["c", "d"]

当前回答

如果你不关心原始数组,编辑它们没有问题,那么这是一个更快的算法:

let iterator = arrayA.values()
let result = []
for (entryA of iterator) {
    if (!arrayB.includes(entryA)) {
        result.push(entryA)
    } else {
        arrayB.splice(arrayB.indexOf(entryA), 1) 
    }
}

result.push(...arrayB)
return result

困难的方法(如果你想做一些比.indexOf更奇特的东西)

var difference = function (source, target) {
    return source.reduce(function (diff, current) { 
        if (target.indexOf(current) === -1) { 
            diff.push(current); 
        }

        return diff; 
    }, []);
}

简单的方法

var difference = function (source, target) {
    return source.filter(function (current) {
        return target.indexOf(current) === -1;
    });
}

这是目前为止最简单的方法来得到你正在寻找的结果,使用jQuery:

var diff = $(old_array).not(new_array).get();

Diff现在包含了old_array中不在new_array中的内容

贡献一个jQuery解决方案,我目前正在使用:

if (!Array.prototype.diff) {
    Array.prototype.diff = function (a) {
        return $.grep(this, function (i) { return $.inArray(i, a) === -1; });
    }; 
}
const dbData = [{name:'ally'}, 
{name:'James'}]
const localData = [{name:'James'}] 

const diff = dbData.filter(a =>!localData.some(b => { return a.name === b.name}))

对我来说,把它作为部分函数处理比较容易。很惊讶没有看到函数式编程的解决方案,这是我在ES6中的:

const arrayDiff = (a, b) => {
  return diff(b)(a);
}

const contains = (needle) => (array) => {
  for (let i=0; i < array.length; i++) {
    if (array[i] == needle) return true;
  }

  return false;
}

const diff = (compare) => {
    return (array) => array.filter((elem) => !contains(elem)(compare))
}
