const dbData = [{name:'ally'}, 
{name:'James'}]
const localData = [{name:'James'}] 

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

对称和线性复杂度。需要ES6。

function arrDiff(arr1, arr2) {
    var arrays = [arr1, arr2].sort((a, b) => a.length - b.length);
    var smallSet = new Set(arrays[0]);

    return arrays[1].filter(x => !smallSet.has(x));
}

为了获得对称差异，您需要以两种方式比较数组(或在多个数组的情况下以所有方式比较)

ES7 (ECMAScript 2016)

// diff between just two arrays:
function arrayDiff(a, b) {
    return [
        ...a.filter(x => !b.includes(x)),
        ...b.filter(x => !a.includes(x))
    ];
}

// diff between multiple arrays:
function arrayDiff(...arrays) {
    return [].concat(...arrays.map( (arr, i) => {
        const others = arrays.slice(0);
        others.splice(i, 1);
        const unique = [...new Set([].concat(...others))];
        return arr.filter(x => !unique.includes(x));
    }));
}

ES6(2015年ECMAScript)

// diff between just two arrays:
function arrayDiff(a, b) {
    return [
        ...a.filter(x => b.indexOf(x) === -1),
        ...b.filter(x => a.indexOf(x) === -1)
    ];
}

// diff between multiple arrays:
function arrayDiff(...arrays) {
    return [].concat(...arrays.map( (arr, i) => {
        const others = arrays.slice(0);
        others.splice(i, 1);
        const unique = [...new Set([].concat(...others))];
        return arr.filter(x => unique.indexOf(x) === -1);
    }));
}

ES5 (ECMAScript 5.1)

// diff between just two arrays:
function arrayDiff(a, b) {
    var arrays = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments);
    var diff = [];

    arrays.forEach(function(arr, i) {
        var other = i === 1 ? a : b;
        arr.forEach(function(x) {
            if (other.indexOf(x) === -1) {
                diff.push(x);
            }
        });
    })

    return diff;
}

// diff between multiple arrays:
function arrayDiff() {
    var arrays = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments);
    var diff = [];

    arrays.forEach(function(arr, i) {
        var others = arrays.slice(0);
        others.splice(i, 1);
        var otherValues = Array.prototype.concat.apply([], others);
        var unique = otherValues.filter(function (x, j) { 
            return otherValues.indexOf(x) === j; 
        });
        diff = diff.concat(arr.filter(x => unique.indexOf(x) === -1));
    });
    return diff;
}

例子:

// diff between two arrays:
const a = ['a', 'd', 'e'];
const b = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
arrayDiff(a, b); // (3) ["e", "b", "c"]

// diff between multiple arrays
const a = ['b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'g'];
const b = ['a', 'b'];
const c = ['a', 'e', 'f'];
arrayDiff(a, b, c); // (4) ["c", "d", "g", "f"]

对象数组之间的差异

function arrayDiffByKey(key, ...arrays) {
    return [].concat(...arrays.map( (arr, i) => {
        const others = arrays.slice(0);
        others.splice(i, 1);
        const unique = [...new Set([].concat(...others))];
        return arr.filter( x =>
            !unique.some(y => x[key] === y[key])
        );
    }));
}

例子:

const a = [{k:1}, {k:2}, {k:3}];
const b = [{k:1}, {k:4}, {k:5}, {k:6}];
const c = [{k:3}, {k:5}, {k:7}];
arrayDiffByKey('k', a, b, c); // (4) [{k:2}, {k:4}, {k:6}, {k:7}]

function diffArray(newArr, oldArr) {
    var newSet = new Set(newArr)
    var diff = []
    oldArr.forEach((a) => {
        if(!newSet.delete(a))diff.push(a)
    })
    return diff.concat(Array.from(newSet)) 
}

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))
}

var a1 = ['a', 'b'];
var a2 = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
var diff = [];
for (var i in a2) {
   var found = false;
   for (var j in a1) {
      if (a2[i] === a1[j]) found = true;
   }
   if (found === false) diff.push(a2[i]);
}

那么简单。也可以用于对象，检查对象的一个属性。 就像,

if (a2[i].id === a1[j].id) found = true;
