I have two nested objects obj1 and obj2 and I want to compare them and the recursively return an object that for each nested key has a equality-like boolean flag



So for a given obj1 like



obj1 = 
prop1: 1,
prop2: "foo",
prop3:
prop4: 2,
prop5: "bar"




and the obj2 like



obj2 = 
prop1: 3,
prop2: "foo",
prop3:
prop4: 2,
prop5: "foobar"
,
prop6: "new"



it should return



equality = 
prop1: false,
prop2: true,
prop3 :
prop4: true,
prop5: false
,
prop6: false



If an object has a new property, like obj2.prop6, then the equality will be equality.prop6 = false.



For non-nested object a simple keys comparison solutions is here Get the property of the difference between two objects in javascript
While to recursively compare nested objects it is showed here JavaScript: Deep comparison recursively: Objects and properties

You could use reduce to build new object and another get method to get nested props from other object by string and compare it to current prop value in first object.






const obj1 = prop1: 1, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "bar" 
const obj2 = prop1: 3, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "foobar"

function get(obj, path)
return path.split('.').reduce((r, e) =>
if (!r) return r
else return r[e] , obj)


function compare(a, b, prev = "")
return Object.keys(a).reduce((r, e) =>
const path = prev + (prev ? '.' + e : e);
const value = a[e] === get(b, path);
r[e] = typeof a[e] === 'object' ? compare(a[e], b, path) : value
return r;
, )


const result = compare(obj1, obj2);
console.log(result)





To compare all properties of both objects you could create extra function that will perform loop by both objects.






const obj1 = "prop1":1,"prop2":"foo","prop3":"prop4":2,"prop5":"bar","prop7":"prop9":"prop10":"foo"
const obj2 = "prop1":3,"prop2":"foo","prop3":"prop4":2,"prop5":"foobar","prop6":"new","prop7":"foo":"foo","bar":"baz":"baz"

function get(obj, path)
return path.split('.').reduce((r, e) => undefined;
, obj);


function isEmpty(o)
if (typeof o !== 'object') return true;
else return !Object.keys(o).length;


function build(a, b, o = null, prev = '')
return Object.keys(a).reduce(
(r, e) =>
const path = prev + (prev ? '.' + e : e);
const bObj = get(b, path);
const value = a[e] === bObj;

if (typeof a[e] === 'object')
if (isEmpty(a[e]) && isEmpty(bObj))
if (e in r) r[e] = r[e];
else r[e] = true;
else if (!bObj && isEmpty(a[e]))
r[e] = value;
else
r[e] = build(a[e], b, r[e], path);

else
r[e] = value;

return r;
,
o ? o :
);


function compare(a, b)
const o = build(a, b);
return build(b, a, o);


const result = compare(obj1, obj2);
console.log(result)

You could iterate all keys and check the nested objects if both values are objects.






const isObject = v => v && typeof v === 'object';

function getDifference(a, b)
return Object.assign(...Array.from(
new Set([...Object.keys(a), ...Object.keys(b)]),
k => ( [k]: isObject(a[k]) && isObject(b[k])
? getDifference(a[k], b[k])
: a[k] === b[k]
)
));


var obj1 = prop1: 1, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "bar" ,
obj2 = prop1: 3, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "foobar" , prop6: "new" ;

console.log(getDifference(obj1, obj2));

Loop through each key and compare the properties. If the property is an object, recursively compare the properties. This will work for any level of nesting. Since the properties could be missing from either of the objects value || check is added.






const obj1=prop1:1,prop2:"foo",prop3:prop4:2,prop5:"bar",prop7:pro8:"only in 1",
obj2=prop1:3,prop2:"foo",prop3:prop4:2,prop5:"foobar", prop6: "only in 2";

const isObject = val => val && typeof val === 'object'; // required for "null" comparison

function compare(obj1, obj2)
let equality = ,
merged = ...obj1, ...obj2 ; // has properties of both

for (let key in merged)

return equality;


console.log(compare(obj1, obj2))

  • what if obj1 have some key with a child obj as its value and obj2 does not have the same key, then the method will be called with compare(obj1, undefined) which will throw an error at obj2[key]

var result = ;

function compare(obj1, obj2, obj_)

var type = typeof obj1[k];
if (type === 'object')

compare(obj1[k], obj2[k], obj_[k]);

if (Object.keys(obj1).length < Object.keys(obj2).length) //check if both objects vary in length.

, obj);

else return !Object.keys(o).length;

(r, e) =>
const path = prev + (prev ? '.' + e : e);

    I thinks this is the best solution since it supports all recent version of ECMAScript.

  • Just a thing, supposed that the property is a void object like , it does not make the comparison.

  • Ok, now it handles a nested lonely prop11= object, but if you have like the same prop12= in both, you will get the as result for the prop12 keyword, instead of bool. See here jsfiddle.net/gpu20nwy

You could iterate all keys and check the nested objects if both values are objects.






const isObject = v => v && typeof v === 'object';

function getDifference(a, b)
return Object.assign(...Array.from(
new Set([...Object.keys(a), ...Object.keys(b)]),
k => ( [k]: isObject(a[k]) && isObject(b[k])
? getDifference(a[k], b[k])
: a[k] === b[k]
)
));


var obj1 = prop1: 1, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "bar" ,
obj2 = prop1: 3, prop2: "foo", prop3: prop4: 2, prop5: "foobar" , prop6: "new" ;

console.log(getDifference(obj1, obj2));

Loop through each key and compare the properties. If the property is an object, recursively compare the properties. This will work for any level of nesting. Since the properties could be missing from either of the objects value || check is added.

obj2=prop1:3,prop2:"foo",prop3:prop4:2,prop5:"foobar", prop6: "only in 2";

const isObject = val => val && typeof val === 'object'; // required for "null" comparison

function compare(obj1, obj2)
