eslint-plugin-node offers supplemental ESLint rules tailored for Node.js development, helping developers enforce best practices and catch potential errors specific to the Node.js environment. Comparing version 3.0.1 with its predecessor, 3.0.0, reveals incremental improvements rather than groundbreaking changes. Both share identical core functionalities, dependencies, and development dependencies, meaning the fundamental rules and tools remain consistent. Key dependencies like ignore, minimatch, object-assign, resolve, and semver are pinned to the same versions, ensuring consistent behavior across the two releases.
Similarly, the developer tooling, including codecov, eslint, eslint-config-mysticatea, if-node-version, mocha, npm-run-all, nyc, opener, rimraf, and shelljs, remains unchanged, suggesting no significant shifts in the project's build or testing infrastructure. The peer dependency on ESLint (>=2.0.0) also remains the same, confirming compatibility with existing ESLint setups.
The most noticeable difference lies in the releaseDate. Version 3.0.1 was published on November 1, 2016, a single day after version 3.0.0's release on October 31, 2016. This points towards a quick patch or minor adjustment. While the exact nature of the fix isn't explicitly detailed in the metadata, developers should consider upgrading to 3.0.1 for the latest, potentially bug-fixed, iteration. For users already on 3.0.0, the upgrade should be seamless due to the shared dependencies and developer setup.
