Engines & entrypoints

Optional engines live on tree-shakeable subpaths. Root keeps compatibility re-exports for core helpers.

Previous: DX / DiffView · Next: Merge

Subpath map

Import	Exports	Notes
`@jayoncode/object-diff`	`diff`, `compare`, `hasChanges`, filters, `patch`, `applyPatch`, `serialize`, …	Compatibility entry
`@jayoncode/object-diff/core`	`diff`, `compare`, `hasChanges`, filters	Slim — no patch/serialize
`@jayoncode/object-diff/patch`	`patch`, `applyPatch`, validate, optimize, …	Patch domain
`@jayoncode/object-diff/formatter`	`serialize`, `createSerializer`	Formats + plugins
`@jayoncode/object-diff/merge`	`merge`	Two-/three-way merge
`@jayoncode/object-diff/query`	`find`, `filter`, `exclude`, `query`, …	DiffResult helpers
`@jayoncode/object-diff/stats`	`statistics`	Rich metrics
`@jayoncode/object-diff/plugins`	`createEngine`	Opt-in plugin host
`@jayoncode/object-diff/view`	`createDiffView`, `explain`	Fluent DX toolbox

Goal	Prefer
Dirty check only	`/core` + `hasChanges`
Sync ops over the wire	`/patch`
Collaborative drafts	`/merge`
Filter an existing diff	`/query`
Telemetry / dashboards	`/stats`
Custom matchers / formatters / hooks	`/plugins`
Review / explain a DiffResult	`/view` + `explain()`
Fluent chaining	`/view`

Root import of merge/query/stats/plugins is not supported — use the subpath.
