GroupDocs Document Comparison API

Product Page | Docs | Demos | API Reference | Examples | Blog | Free Support | Temporary License

GroupDocs.Comparison Demos are applications that demonstrate powerful features of GroupDocs.Comparison for Java distributed as Docker images. Compare DOCX, PDF, PPT, XLS, and over 50 document formats without additional dependencies. Use these images as-is or customize and integrate them into your own project.

Note: without a license the application runs in trial mode. Purchase a license or request a temporary license.

Security Notice

These Docker images ship sample/demo applications — not production-ready services.

  • Intended for local development and evaluation only
  • Demo defaults enable upload, browse, and download; no authentication is included
  • Do not expose port 8080 to untrusted networks without authentication, a reverse proxy, path validation, and other controls required by your organization
  • For production, use the GroupDocs.Comparison library and implement your own secure document storage and API layer

Source code: GroupDocs.Comparison-for-Java

How to Run

Pull and run a Dropwizard image:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --name comparison --rm groupdocs/comparison:{{VERSION}}-java-openjdk8-bullseye-dropwizard
# Open http://localhost:8080/comparison/ in your browser.

Bind volumes for sample files and license:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --name comparison --rm \
  -v "C:/DocumentSamples/:/home/groupdocs/app/DocumentSamples" \
  -v "C:/Licenses/:/home/groupdocs/app/Licenses" \
  groupdocs/comparison:{{VERSION}}-java-openjdk8-bullseye-dropwizard

The sample reads license files from the mounted Licenses directory and lists documents from DocumentSamples.
