## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'json-compare'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install json-compare

## Usage

    require 'yajl'
    require 'json-compare'

    json1 = File.new('spec/fixtures/twitter-search.json', 'r')
    json2 = File.new('spec/fixtures/twitter-search2.json', 'r')
    old, new = Yajl::Parser.parse(json1), Yajl::Parser.parse(json2)
    result = JsonCompare.get_diff(old, new)

If you want to exclude some keys from comparison use exclusion param:

    exclusion = ["from_user", "to_user_id"]
    result = JsonCompare.get_diff(old, new, exclusion)
