A Go library for applying RFC 6902 JSON Patch documents and creating/applying RFC 7396 JSON Merge Patch documents. It also supports comparing JSON documents and combining merge patches, with configurable apply options.
Use cases
- apply rfc6902 json patch to a document in go
- create a json merge patch from two documents
- diff two json documents and generate a patch
- combine multiple merge patches into one
- apply json patch operations with configurable error handling
When to choose
- you need standards-compliant JSON Patch (RFC 6902) or Merge Patch (RFC 7396) support in Go
- you want a small, focused, well-established library with configurable apply behavior
When to avoid
- you need JSON Patch support in another language
- you need full JSON transformation or query capabilities beyond patching
