Compression Webpack Plugin version 6.0.3 offers refined asset compression within your Webpack builds, boasting updated tooling and enhanced compatibility for developers. A key change from version 6.0.2 involves a dependency upgrade to schema-utils from version 2.7.1 to version 3.0.0. This suggests improvements in schema validation, potentially offering more robust configuration options and clearer error messages for developers configuring the plugin.
Furthermore, several development dependencies received updates: babel-jest (from 26.3.0 to 26.5.2), del (from 5.1.0 to 6.0.0), eslint (from 7.9.0 to 7.10.0), eslint-config-prettier (from 6.11.0 to 6.12.0), eslint-plugin-import (from 2.22.0 to 2.22.1), and file-loader (from 6.1.0 to 6.1.1), and jest (from 26.4.2 to 26.5.2). These changes likely involve bug fixes, performance improvements, and adherence to the latest linting and testing standards, contributing to a more stable and maintainable development environment. The unpackedSize of the package increased slightly, from 48212 to 48339, perhaps reflecting these underlying improvements.The core functionality of preparing compressed versions of your assets remains unchanged, aiming to optimize the delivery of your web application by reducing file sizes served with Content-Encoding. Both versions maintain peer dependency support for Webpack versions 4 and 5, ensuring broad compatibility.
