Version 10.0.1 Details

Fs-extra version 10.0.1 is a minor update to the popular Node.js library that enhances the built-in fs module. Both versions, 10.0.0 and 10.0.1, provide developers with extra file system methods, making tasks like recursive directory creation (mkdir), file copying, and deletion significantly easier. The core dependencies remain unchanged, with both utilizing jsonfile, graceful-fs, and universalify.

However, the key difference lies in the development dependencies and the package's metadata. Version 10.0.1 upgrades the standard linter from version 14.1.0 to 16.0.3, suggesting improvements in code style enforcement and adherence to modern JavaScript standards. Notably, coveralls is removed as a development dependency in the newer version. This could indicate a shift in how code coverage reporting is handled within the project.

Furthermore, the dist metadata reveals that version 10.0.1 has a smaller unpacked size (62876 bytes) and fewer files (31) compared to version 10.0.0 (131768 bytes and 34 files), potentially indicating optimizations and streamlining of the package contents. Developers upgrading should be aware of the standard linter update which may highlight styling differences during development; and consider the removal of coveralls if they want to continue to use it - it must be added as a dev dependency again. The library remains under the MIT license, ensuring flexibility for use in various projects. The author remains JP Richardson.
