コード例: GroupDocs.Comparison を用いた並列バッチ比較

This example demonstrates GroupDocs.Comparison’s parallel batch processing capabilities:

Step 1: Single Document Comparison

First, create a function to compare a single document pair using GroupDocs.Comparison:

const groupdocs = require('@groupdocs/groupdocs.comparison');

async function compareWordPair(sourcePath, targetPath, outputPath, options = {}) {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  
  try {
    // GroupDocs.Comparison Comparer initialization
    const comparer = new groupdocs.Comparer(sourcePath);
    comparer.add(targetPath);

    // Use GroupDocs.Comparison CompareOptions for optimization
    const compareOptions = options.compareOptions || null;
    if (compareOptions) {
      await comparer.compare(outputPath, compareOptions);
    } else {
      await comparer.compare(outputPath);
    }

    return {
      success: true,
      duration: Date.now() - startTime,
      outputPath
    };
  } catch (error) {
    return {
      success: false,
      duration: Date.now() - startTime,
      error: error.message
    };
  }
}

Step 2: Parallel Batch Processing

Next, implement parallel batch processing to handle multiple documents:

async function compareBatchParallel(documentPairs, options = {}, concurrency = 5) {
  const startTime = Date.now();
  const results = [];

  // Process batches with controlled concurrency
  for (let i = 0; i < documentPairs.length; i += concurrency) {
    const batch = documentPairs.slice(i, i + concurrency);
    
    const batchResults = await Promise.all(
      batch.map(pair => compareWordPair(
        pair.source,
        pair.target,
        pair.output,
        options
      ))
    );

    results.push(...batchResults);
  }

  const totalDuration = Date.now() - startTime;
  const succeeded = results.filter(r => r.success).length;
  const throughput = (succeeded / (totalDuration / 1000)).toFixed(2);

  return {
    total: documentPairs.length,
    succeeded,
    failed: documentPairs.length - succeeded,
    totalDuration,
    throughput: `${throughput} documents/second`,
    results
  };
}

Step 3: Usage Example

Finally, use GroupDocs.Comparison with optimized settings:

async function main() {
  const documentPairs = [
    { source: 'source/doc1.docx', target: 'target/doc1.docx', output: 'output/result1.docx' },
    { source: 'source/doc2.docx', target: 'target/doc2.docx', output: 'output/result2.docx' }
  ];

  // Configure GroupDocs.Comparison CompareOptions for performance
  const compareOptions = new groupdocs.CompareOptions();
  compareOptions.setSensitivityOfComparison(75); // Performance tuning
  compareOptions.setGenerateSummaryPage(true);

  const results = await compareBatchParallel(
    documentPairs,
    { compareOptions },
    5 // Parallel concurrency
  );

  console.log(`Processed ${results.succeeded} documents`);
  console.log(`Throughput: ${results.throughput}`);
}
