title: makepatches and applypatches Operator (Examples)

type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki

These examples use the example texts in [[Hamlet]], taken from [[https://neil.fraser.name/software/diff_match_patch/demos/patch.html]]

Use `makepatches` to generate the set of patches to transform Shakepeare's original into Modern English:
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 1 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}]">>
|
|
|
|
Use `applypatches` to apply the patches to Shakespeare's original text:
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 2 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}] :map[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}applypatches<currentTiddler>]">>
|
|
|
|
In the above example, the [[Map Filter Run Prefix]] is used to pass the patches information as a parameter to `applypatches`. Inside `:map`, <<.value currentTiddler>> is set to the input title (i.e. the previously generated patches).
|
|
|
|
The patch information from the Shakepeare texts can also be used to transform the //Trekkie's Copy// to a Modern English version:
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 3 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}] :map[{Hamlet##Trekkie-old}applypatches<currentTiddler>]">>
|
|
|
|
The above examples used the character mode of `makepatches`. The `word` mode yields very similar results in this case, even when applied to the //Trekkie's Copy//.
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 4 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches:words{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}]">>
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 5 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches:words{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}] :map[{Hamlet##Trekkie-old}applypatches<currentTiddler>]">>
|
|
|
|
The `lines` mode doesn't work as well in this application:
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 6 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches:lines{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}]">>
|
|
|
|
<<.operator-example 7 "[{Hamlet##Shakespeare-old}makepatches:lines{Hamlet##Shakespeare-new}] :map[{Hamlet##Trekkie-old}applypatches<currentTiddler>]">>
|
|
|
|
It is better suited as a very fast algorithm to detect line-wise incremental changes to texts and store only the changes instead of multiple versions of the whole texts.
