The @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin package, a vital tool for TypeScript developers using ESLint, saw a release of version 5.12.1 on February 21, 2022, following quickly on the heels of version 5.12.0 released on February 14, 2022. Both versions share a common foundation, providing a comprehensive suite of linting rules specifically tailored for TypeScript code. They aim to bridge the gap between ESLint and TypeScript, allowing developers to enforce consistent code style, catch potential errors, and improve overall code quality within their TypeScript projects.
The core dependencies remain largely consistent between the two versions, leveraging tools like debug for debugging, ignore for file exclusion, semver for version management, and regexpp for regular expression parsing. Notably, dependencies on other @typescript-eslint packages such as @typescript-eslint/utils, @typescript-eslint/type-utils and @typescript-eslint/scope-manager have been bumped to version 5.12.1 to match the core package. The difference on size of the packages on the dist section indicates the changes include bug fixes and incremental improvements.
Developers should pay attention to peer dependencies; both versions require compatible versions of eslint (6.x, 7.x, or 8.x) and @typescript-eslint/parser (5.x). Upgrading to version 5.12.1 is recommended to benefit from latest bug fixes, performance enhancements, and potential refinements to existing rules, ensuring a smoother and more robust linting experience. Although the changes seem minor, keeping dependencies up-to-date is always a good practice.
