Version 0.23.0 Details

Fs-extra is a popular Node.js package extending the core fs module with useful file system operations like recursive directory creation (mkdir -p), file copying (cp -r), and removal (rm -rf). Version 0.23.0 arrives after version 0.22.1, bringing a subtle but potentially important change for developers. While both versions offer the same core functionality and share the same set of development dependencies crucial for testing, linting and coverage reporting, the key difference lies in the dependencies. Version 0.23.0 introduces a new dependency: path-is-absolute at version ^1.0.0. This addition suggests that the new version is now explicitly checking or handling absolute paths within its operations, providing increased robustness as the management of file paths are key when working with files and directories.

Developers relying on fs-extra for file system manipulation can benefit from this enhanced path handling in version 0.23.0. Both versions ship containing the same toolset for development that contains Mocha for testing, Semver for version management and Istanbul for coverage measurement, to name a few. The MIT license ensures the library remains free to use and redistribute. The core fs-extra team is committed that their tool is up to standards when it comes to the quality of code.
