@types/node-fetch provides TypeScript definitions for the popular node-fetch library, enabling developers to use node-fetch with type safety and enhanced tooling support in TypeScript projects. Version 2.6.2 was released on June 15, 2022, succeeding version 2.6.1, which was released on February 15, 2022. Both versions share identical dependencies: form-data (version 3.0.0 or higher) and @types/node (any version). This indicates that the core functionality and compatibility with related libraries remained consistent between the releases. The license for both versions is MIT, suitable for a wide range of projects. The repository for both versions points to the DefinitelyTyped repository on GitHub, guaranteeing a community-driven approach to maintaining accurate type definitions.
A notable difference between the two versions lies in the file count within the distributed package. Version 2.6.2 contains 6 files, while version 2.6.1 contains 5, suggesting the addition of a new definition file or related asset. Additionally, the unpacked size of version 2.6.2 is slightly smaller at 12125 bytes compared to version 2.6.1's 12126 bytes, which could be a result of minor optimisations or changes in the file structure. TypeScript developers using node-fetch should upgrade to version 2.6.2 for the latest type definitions, which may include improved accuracy, enhanced support for newer node-fetch features, or bug fixes. Although minor, the file count difference indicates that there was indeed a modification between the versions.
