Differ
This package helps sending the HTML content of a page to a remote origin repeatedly. It keeps internal state of the last HTMLs it saw and only sends the delta.
const differ = require('delta-differ');
const diffClient = new differ.DiffClient((ticket) => {
// this method can return a promise - presumably it would perform
// a remote call to another machine running the code - the
// other machine knows what the state is by the passed ticket parameter
// see the e2e tests for a full example
return differ.delta(ticket);
});
const pageHtml = diffClient.sync();
// some time later after html changes...
const newPageHtml = diffClient.sync();
Syncing other things
The delta function accepts a second "getHtml" argument that's useful for getting something other than the page body's html.
