=RailsDiff

This is a small plug-in to provide an easy way to display a diff of two “files”
(long strings…) as html. It uses the diff-lcs gem to calculate the diff.
The default output “generator” creates table-rows in the following scheme:

Old-Line-Nr

Old-File

New-File

Old-Line-Nr

It applies different css classes to the elements depending on match/difference.

your own css rules to the applications-stylesheet.

in your view simply call:

<%= diff(@difftest.old, @difftest.new) %>

<tr><td>1. </td><td><pre class="only_a">require 'digest/sha1'</pre></td><td><pre class="only_b">require 'digest/sha2'</pre></td><td>1. </td></tr>
