Version 9.0.4 Details

Version 9.0.4 of the html-to-text package brings a subtle but potentially important update compared to version 9.0.3. Both versions share the same core functionality, excelling at converting HTML content into readable plain text, making them invaluable tools for tasks like email processing, text indexing, and generating clean text summaries from web pages. Both versions builds upon a solid foundation, incorporating dependencies like htmlparser2 for robust HTML parsing, dom-serializer for handling the DOM, and selderee along with its htmlparser2 plugin for advanced text extraction.

The key difference lies in the updated deepmerge dependency. Version 9.0.4 upgrades to deepmerge version 4.3.0, whereas version 9.0.3 relies on version 4.2.2. While seemingly minor, this upgrade could encompass bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features within the deepmerge library that indirectly benefit html-to-text. deepmerge is a utility to deeply merge Javascript objects. This upgrade can lead to improved stability and reliability when dealing with complex HTML structures and customized conversion options.

Developers should consider this update if they heavily rely on configuration merging within html-to-text or have encountered issues related to object merging in previous versions. The increased unpacked size, shows that there are some internal changes but the file count remain the same, so there are no new files being added in the newer version, which means it's a minimal update worth considering. The updated release date also indicates active maintenance and ongoing improvements to the package.
