Eslint-plugin-prettier version 2.1.2 represents a minor update to version 2.1.1, focusing primarily on internal improvements. Both versions serve the same core function: integrating Prettier, the popular code formatter, directly into the ESLint workflow. This allows developers to automatically format their code according to Prettier's rules as part of their linting process, ensuring consistent code style across projects.
The key difference lies in the release date, with version 2.1.2 appearing on June 14, 2017, roughly a month after version 2.1.1 released on May 19, 2017. Looking deeper there is a small difference in the peer dependecies specification with version 2.1.1 accepting eslint versions from "^3.14.1" and version 2.1.2 accepting versions from ">=3.14.1". This very subtle difference indicate more relaxation in which version of eslint are acceptable for the package.
For developers leveraging eslint-plugin-prettier, both versions offer a streamlined way to enforce code style. The package depends on "fast-diff" and "jest-docblock" and relies on several dev dependencies to be tested like "mocha", "eslint" and "prettier". Ensure that your project includes the peer dependencies of ESLint (version >=3.14.1 for version 2.1.2 and version ^3.14.1 for version 2.1.1) and Prettier (version >= 0.11.0) to avoid compatibility issues. This plugin simplifies maintaining a consistent code style, reducing manual formatting efforts and promoting cleaner, more readable codebases. Choose the version that best suits your project's dependency constraints, keeping in mind the nuanced change in peer dependency handling for ESLint between the two releases.
