Eslint-plugin-import version 0.5.1 is a minor update to version 0.4.5, both designed to bring sanity to JavaScript ES module imports within your ESLint workflow. The core functionality for ensuring proper import/export syntax and resolving module paths remains consistent between the versions, relying on the same foundational dependencies like es6-map, es6-set, eslint-import-core, and array.prototype.find. These dependencies are crucial for the plugin's ability to handle modern JavaScript features related to modules. The developer dependencies, essential for testing and development, like chai, mocha, eslint, istanbul, eslint-tester, and object-assign are unchanged.
A key detail is the peer dependency on ESLint itself (>=0.16.0), ensuring compatibility with suitable ESLint versions. While the core capabilities appear identical, version 0.5.1, released on July 14, 2015, comes after version 0.4.5 released on June 5, 2015. Developers utilizing this plugin benefit from consistent import rules enforcement, leading to cleaner, more maintainable codebases. The update will incorporate internal improvements and bug fixes accumulated between the releases, which typically address edge cases or enhance existing rule implementations. Users should update to the newer version to leverage these incremental improvements and ensure ongoing compatibility with project dependencies.
