Angular Router version 7.1.4 is a minor patch update to the popular Angular routing library, building upon the foundation laid by version 7.1.3. Both versions share the same core dependencies, relying on tslib for TypeScript helper functions and peer dependencies like rxjs for reactive programming and core Angular modules (@angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/platform-browser). This consistency ensures compatibility within the Angular 7 ecosystem.
The key difference lies in the subtle enhancements and bug fixes introduced in 7.1.4. While the core functionality remains the same, developers might find that upgrading to 7.1.4 resolves specific edge-case routing issues or improves performance in nuanced scenarios. A notable change is observed in the unpackedSize of the package, which grew slightly from 4,407,256 bytes in 7.1.3 to 4,419,627 bytes in 7.1.4, indicating potential additions or modifications to existing code.
For developers already using Angular 7 and the Angular Router, the upgrade to 7.1.4 is generally recommended. Given the shared dependencies and the nature of patch releases, the upgrade should be seamless with minimal risk of breaking changes. The updated release date of December 18, 2018, signifies the improvements incorporated. Check the changelog and commit history on the angular/angular GitHub repository for more precise details on the specific changes made, helping to make informed decisions about when upgrading is imperative for particular applications.
