So I'm currently developing an automated test system and I'm verifying my results by running a set of baselined data through and comparing the output (which is in a txt file) to a baseline results file. So of course I'm just using the diff command. Unfortunately each time I run the test there are 2 values that are changed. One is a uniq identifier and the other is a timestamp.
What is the best way to have my diff ignore those 2 values? Keep in mind I need to ignore the value and not the line. Dummy Example of the file below and the fields needing to be ignored highlighted in red.
Hello,
I want to compare two files. All records in file 2 that are not in file 1 should be output to file 3.
For example:
file 1
123
1234
123456
file 2
123
2345
23456
file 3 should have
2345
23456

HTML::Diff(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTML::Diff(3pm)NAME
HTML::Diff - compare two strings of HTML
This module compares two strings of HTML and returns a list of a chunks which indicate the diff between the two input strings, where
changes in formatting are considered changes.
HTML::Diff does not strictly parse the HTML. Instead, it uses regular expressions to make a decent effort at understanding the given HTML.
As a result, there are many valid HTML documents for which it will not produce the correct answer. But there may be some invalid HTML
documents for which it gives you the answer you're looking for. Your mileage may vary; test it on lots of inputs from your domain before
relying on it.
SYNOPSIS
$result = html_word_diff($left_text, $right_text);
DESCRIPTION
Returns a reference to a list of triples [<flag>, <left>, <right>]. Each triple represents a check of the input texts. The flag tells you
whether it represents a deletion, insertion, a modification, or an unchanged chunk.
Every character of each input text is accounted for by some triple in the output. Specifically, Concatenating all the <left> members from
the return value should produce $left_text, and likewise the <right> members concatenate together to produce $right_text.
The <flag> is either 'u', '+', '-', or 'c', indicating whether the two chunks are the same, the $right_text contained this chunk and the
left chunk didn't, or vice versa, or the two chunks are simply different. This follows the usage of Algorithm::Diff.
The difference is computed on a word-by-word basis, "breaking" on visible words in the HTML text. If a tag only is changed, it will not be
returned as an independent chunk but will be shown as a change to one of the neighboring words. For balanced tags, such as <b> </b>, it is
intended that a change to the tag will be treated as a change to all words in between.
