Version 2.0.2 Details

define-property is a small, efficient JavaScript utility designed to define non-enumerable properties on JavaScript objects. This is useful for creating properties that function more like internal data, preventing them from appearing during typical object iteration or when using JSON.stringify. Think of it as a way to add "hidden" properties with specific behaviors.

Version 2.0.2 introduces a key change in its dependencies. While both versions share is-descriptor for validating property descriptors, version 2.0.2 replaces kind-of with isobject. The kind-of package in version 2.0.1 provided comprehensive type checking, whereas isobject offers a more focused check specifically for whether a value is a JavaScript object. This change likely reflects a shift towards a more streamlined and targeted approach to object validation, potentially reducing the overall bundle size and improving performance where the comprehensive type-checking of kind-of was not essential.

Both versions of this small package maintain the same core functionality of defining properties and provide essential tools for developers who want fine-grained control over object properties. The library, authored by Jon Schlinkert, is licensed under the MIT license, which allows for flexible usage in various projects. Developers can manage the property behavior by using the functionalities it offers.
