A full version history of the find-line-column package with size, number of distributed files and dependency evolution.
find-line-column is a lightweight npm package designed to pinpoint the precise line and column number within a given string at a specific character position. This functionality proves invaluable for debugging, error reporting, and source code analysis, enhancing the clarity and maintainability of software projects.
The package has two notable versions. Version 0.5.1, released in May 2014, marks the initial offering of this utility. It includes jasmine-node as a dev dependency for testing and is licensed under the MIT license, promoting open-source usage and modification.
A subsequent update, version 0.5.2, arrived in June 2014, building upon the foundation of its predecessor. While maintaining the core functionality and MIT license, this version notably introduces a repository link, pointing to the package's GitHub repository. This addition fosters community engagement and allows developers to contribute to the project's ongoing development and improvement, ensuring users are able to find the location of the code in question. Both iterations are authored by Matt Blair, solidifying the package's consistent ownership and direction. Each version is readily accessible through npm, indicated by its unique tarball URL, simplifying integration into various development workflows.
