Install-local is a handy node module designed to simplify the process of installing local packages within your projects, ensuring compatibility with both modern and legacy npm versions. Focusing on versions 3.0.0 and 3.0.1, the core functionality remains consistent, providing a seamless experience for developers aiming to manage local dependencies. Both versions boast identical dependencies, including execa, lodash.flatmap, rimraf, and uniqid, ensuring consistent functionality for executing commands, handling data, removing files, and generating unique identifiers respectively. The developer experience is further enhanced by a suite of development dependencies encompassing testing frameworks like Mocha, Stryker, and Chai, along with tools for linting, formatting, and type checking (ESLint, Prettier, TypeScript).
While the dependency tree and development tools remain consistent, the key difference lies in the patch version update from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1. Although specific bug fixes or performance improvements aren't explicitly detailed, minor version bumps often address subtle issues or edge cases that could impact stability. The dist object also reveal minor changes. Version 3.0.1 has an unpacked size of 189908 bytes, slightly smaller than version 3.0.0 which unpacks to 191876 bytes, suggesting perhaps some optimization or minor changes in file sizes. Both share an exact release date, only minutes apart. For developers, upgrading to the latest patch version (3.0.1) is generally recommended to leverage the most up-to-date bug fixes and enhancements. If a developer faces issues using 3.0.0 they should upgrade to 3.0.1 to resolve them.
