Jsonc-parser is a valuable tool for developers needing to work with JSON files that include comments, a feature not natively supported by standard JSON. Versions 2.0.0 and 2.0.1 provide scanning and parsing capabilities for this extended JSON format. Examining the differences between these versions can help developers choose the right one for their needs.
Both versions share a common set of development dependencies including Mocha for testing, rimraf for removing files and directories, tslint for code linting, typescript for development, and @types/node and @types/mocha for type definitions. They are licensed under the MIT license and maintained by Microsoft, indicating a solid foundation and ongoing support.
The key differences lie in the release date and the "dist" section. Version 2.0.1 was released on June 25, 2018, while version 2.0.0 was released earlier on April 12, 2018. The "dist" section reveals that version 2.0.1 has a smaller fileCount (17 vs. 21) and unpackedSize (166901 vs. 169829) compared to version 2.0.0. This suggests potential optimizations or bug fixes in the later release that resulted in a more compact package. Developers will benefit from choosing version 2.0.1 due to its optimized size. The newest version of the library allows for a reduced footprint in their project, potentially improving load times and reducing storage requirements. While the specific bug fixes or optimizations aren't detailed, the updated release date and smaller size of version 2.0.1 make it the preferred choice for most use cases.
