Java实现任意两段文字对比并输出对比结果到excel文件

一、需求描述

        在企业审计业务和公文业务中,需要实现对文档内容的对比,对比的结果供工作人员进行核查。主要实现以下功能:
        1.对比的结果以富文本的样式导出到excel中
        2.保留对比结果的新增、修改和删除效果

实现的最终效果图如下:

二、具体实现步骤

        需求看似简单,但实现起来有以下几大难点:

  • 文字内容比较的算法,如何快速找出并定位一段文本中的内容?
  • 在比对出结果后需要采用富文本的样式进行展示,如何实现?

2.1 引入EasyExcel

       主要实现Excel文件的处理,包含对比内容的生成等。

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.alibaba</groupId>
    <artifactId>easyexcel</artifactId>
    <easyexcel.version>3.0.5</easyexcel.version>
</dependency>

2.2  引入开源DiffMatchPatch

        主要实现文本的比对,代码不算太多,重点需要知道如何使用即可。具体代码如下:

2.3 实现自定义动态计算列宽度

        在生成对比结果Excel文件中,需要根据不同的内容动态计算列宽,详细代码如下:

package com.demo.common.excel;

import com.alibaba.excel.metadata.Head;
import com.alibaba.excel.metadata.data.WriteCellData;
import com.alibaba.excel.write.metadata.holder.WriteSheetHolder;
import com.alibaba.excel.write.style.column.AbstractColumnWidthStyleStrategy;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Cell;

import java.util.List;

/**
 * 导出表格宽度设置
 */
public class LongestCellWidthHandler extends AbstractColumnWidthStyleStrategy {

    /*列宽计算逻辑:以下标为1的列的宽度计算逻辑说明下,正常情况下设置的列宽是33乘以256,
            但实际上我们生成的excel中列宽是32.22,因为字体样式、大小以及单元格边框等占用额外的像素,
            所以实际的列宽比代码中设置的列宽要小0.78英寸(excel中的列宽单位是英寸),代码中设置的33也是英寸单位,
            那么实际我们需要设置成33.78英寸,但33.78乘以256是Double类型的数值,
            setColumnWidth的第二个参数必须是整数,所以在33.78*256=8647.68的基础上向上取整为8648*//*
    */
    @Override
    protected void setColumnWidth(WriteSheetHolder writeSheetHolder, List<WriteCellData<?>> cellDataList, Cell cell, Head head, Integer relativeRowIndex, Boolean isHead) {
        if (Boolean.TRUE.equals(isHead)) {
            int columnWidth = cell.getStringCellValue().length();
            columnWidth = Math.max(columnWidth * 5, 20);
            if (columnWidth > 255) {
                columnWidth = 255;
            }
            writeSheetHolder.getSheet().setColumnWidth(cell.getColumnIndex(), "对比结果".equals(cell.getStringCellValue().trim()) ? 12800 : columnWidth * 256);
            writeSheetHolder.getSheet().setColumnWidth(cell.getColumnIndex(), "参考文件".equals(cell.getStringCellValue().trim()) ? 12800 : columnWidth * 256);
        }
    }
}

2.4 实现Excel特定列的样式

比对结果为富文本样式,需要对Excel制定列的样式进行特殊处理,具体代码如下:

import com.alibaba.excel.metadata.Head;
import com.alibaba.excel.metadata.data.WriteCellData;
import com.alibaba.excel.write.handler.CellWriteHandler;
import com.alibaba.excel.write.metadata.holder.WriteSheetHolder;
import com.alibaba.excel.write.metadata.holder.WriteTableHolder;
import com.alibaba.fastjson.JSON;
import com.demmo.common.utils.DiffMatchPatch;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.ss.util.CellAddress;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFRichTextString;

import java.util.List;

/**
 * 自定义导出样式
 */
public class CustomCellWriteHandler implements CellWriteHandler {

    @Override
    public void afterCellDispose(WriteSheetHolder writeSheetHolder, WriteTableHolder writeTableHolder, List<WriteCellData<?>> cellDataList, Cell cell, Head head, Integer relativeRowIndex, Boolean isHead) {
        CellAddress address = cell.getAddress();
        int column = address.getColumn();
        if (!isHead && (column == 1)) {//指定那些列需要做定制化样式
            Sheet sheet = writeSheetHolder.getSheet();
            Workbook workbook = sheet.getWorkbook();
            // xlsx格式,如果是老版本格式的话就用 HSSFRichTextString
            String stringCellValue = cell.getStringCellValue();
            try {
                List<DiffMatchPatch.Diff> diffs = JSON.parseArray(stringCellValue, DiffMatchPatch.Diff.class);
                XSSFRichTextString richString = new XSSFRichTextString(cell.getStringCellValue());
                // 再设置回每个单元格里
                cell.setCellValue(diff_prettyHtml(diffs, workbook, richString, cell));
            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.out.println("stringCellValue:" + stringCellValue);
            }
        }
    }

    public XSSFRichTextString diff_prettyHtml(List<DiffMatchPatch.Diff> diffs, Workbook workbook, XSSFRichTextString richString, Cell cell) {
        int i = 0;
        StringBuffer sourceBuffer = new StringBuffer("");
        for (DiffMatchPatch.Diff diff : diffs) {
            sourceBuffer.append(diff.text);
        }
        richString.setString(sourceBuffer.toString());
        for (DiffMatchPatch.Diff aDiff : diffs) {
            int startIndex = i;
            i += aDiff.text.length();
            int endIndex = i;
            switch (aDiff.operation) {
                case INSERT:
                    Font font = workbook.createFont();
                    font.setColor(IndexedColors.SKY_BLUE.index);
                    richString.applyFont(startIndex, endIndex, font);
                    break;
                case DELETE:
                    Font font2 = workbook.createFont();
                    font2.setColor(Font.COLOR_RED);
                    font2.setStrikeout(true);
                    richString.applyFont(startIndex, endIndex, font2);
                    break;
                case EQUAL:
                    Font font3 = workbook.createFont();
                    richString.applyFont(startIndex, endIndex, font3);
                    break;
            }
        }
        return richString;
    }
}


2.5 编写测试程序,查看效果

可自行编写测试程序,查看完整的效果。这里简单举例,具体代码如下:

import com.demo.common.excel.CellStyleUtils;
import com.demo.common.excel.CustomCellWriteHandler;
import com.demo.common.excel.LongestCellWidthHandler;
import com.demo.common.utils.DiffMatchPatch;
import com.demo.common.utils.JsonUtils;
import com.demo.common.utils.MapUtils;
import com.demo.common.utils.StringUtils;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.*;

public class ExcelDiffExportDemo {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        List<Map<String,String>> list=new ArrayList<>();
        Map<String,String> mapObj1=new HashMap<>();
        mapObj1.put("name","张三");
        mapObj1.put("like1","我喜欢吃苹果");
        mapObj1.put("like2","我喜欢吃草莓");
        list.add(mapObj1);
        Map<String,String> mapObj2=new HashMap<>();
        mapObj2.put("name","李四");
        mapObj2.put("like1","我喜欢吃西瓜");
        mapObj2.put("like2","我喜欢吃西瓜和草莓");
        list.add(mapObj2);
        Map<String,String> mapObj3=new HashMap<>();
        mapObj3.put("name","王五");
        mapObj3.put("like2","我喜欢吃苹果");
        mapObj3.put("like1","我不喜欢吃苹果,喜欢吃香蕉");
        list.add(mapObj3);
        List<List<String>> exportData = new ArrayList<>();
        for (Map<String,String> mapObj : list) {
            DiffMatchPatch dmp = new DiffMatchPatch();
            System.out.println(mapObj);
            LinkedList<DiffMatchPatch.Diff> diffs = dmp.diff_main(MapUtils.getValueString(mapObj,"like1"), MapUtils.getValueString(mapObj,"like2"));
            List<String> itemList = new ArrayList<>();
            itemList.add(MapUtils.getValueString(mapObj,"name"));
            itemList.add(JsonUtils.toJsonString(diffs));
            exportData.add(itemList);
        }
        String fileName="水果喜好";
        List<List<String>> headList=new ArrayList<List<String>>();
        List<String> head1 = new ArrayList<>();
        head1.add(fileName);
        head1.add("姓名");
        List<String> head2 = new ArrayList<>();
        head2.add(fileName);
        head2.add("爱好对比结果");
        headList.add(head1);
        headList.add(head2);
        FileOutputStream outputStream = null;
        try {
            outputStream = new FileOutputStream(new File("D:\\doc\\202304\\like.xlsx"));
            EasyExcel.write(outputStream).inMemory(true).registerWriteHandler(CellStyleUtils.getHorizontalCellStyleStrategy())
                .registerWriteHandler(new LongestCellWidthHandler()).registerWriteHandler(new CustomCellWriteHandler())
                .head(headList).sheet("小朋友水果爱好比对").doWrite(exportData);
            outputStream.flush();
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            try {
                // 关闭文件流
                outputStream.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
}

以上是完整的实现过程和代码,相信JAVA开发的小伙伴们一定用的上。
