 # java-diff-utils
-Diff Utils library is an OpenSource library for performing the comparison / diff operations between texts or some kind of data: computing diffs, applying patches, generating unified diffs or parsing them, generating diff output for easy future displaying (like side-by-side view) and so on.

+## Intro
+
+Diff Utils library is an OpenSource library for performing the comparison operations between texts: computing diffs, applying patches, generating unified diffs or parsing them, generating diff output for easy future displaying (like side-by-side view) and so on.
+
+Main reason to build this library was the lack of easy-to-use libraries with all the usual stuff you need while working with diff files. Originally it was inspired by JRCS library and it's nice design of diff module.
+
+**This is originally a fork of java-diff-utils from Google Code Archive.**
+
+## API
+
+Javadocs of the actual release version: [JavaDocs java-diff-utils](https://java-diff-utils.github.io/java-diff-utils/4.7/docs/api/)
+
+## Examples
+
+Look [here](https://github.com/wumpz/java-diff-utils/wiki) to find more helpful informations and examples.
+
+These two outputs are generated using this java-diff-utils. The source code can also be found at the *Examples* page:
+
+**Producing a one liner including all difference information.**
+
+This is a test ~senctence~**for diffutils**.
+
+**Producing a side by side view of computed differences.**

+
+## Main Features
+
+* computing the difference between two texts.
+* capable to hand more than plain ascii. Arrays or List of any type that implements hashCode() and equals() correctly can be subject to differencing using this library
+* patch and unpatch the text with the given patch
+* parsing the unified diff format
+* producing human-readable differences
+* inline difference construction
+* Algorithms:
+  * Myer
+  * HistogramDiff using JGit Library
+
+### Algorithms
+
+* Myer's diff
+* HistogramDiff
+
+But it can easily replaced by any other which is better for handing your texts. I have plan to add implementation of some in future.
+
+## Source Code conventions
+
+Recently a checkstyle process was integrated into the build process. java-diff-utils follows the sun java format convention. There are no TABs allowed. Use spaces.
+
+```java
+public static <T> Patch<T> diff(List<T> original, List<T> revised,
+    BiPredicate<T, T> equalizer) throws DiffException {
+    if (equalizer != null) {
+        return DiffUtils.diff(original, revised,
+        new MyersDiff<>(equalizer));
+    }
+    return DiffUtils.diff(original, revised, new MyersDiff<>());
+}
+```
+
+This is a valid piece of source code:
+
+* blocks without braces are not allowed
+* after control statements (if, while, for) a whitespace is expected
+* the opening brace should be in the same line as the control statement
+
+### To Install
+
+Just add the code below to your maven dependencies:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>io.github.java-diff-utils</groupId>
+    <artifactId>java-diff-utils</artifactId>
+    <version>4.5</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+or using gradle:
+
+```groovy
+// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.github.java-diff-utils/java-diff-utils
+implementation "io.github.java-diff-utils:java-diff-utils:4.5"
+```
