List-stream is a Node.js package designed for collecting data chunks or objects from a readable stream and, conversely, writing objects or chunks to a writable stream. Version 2.0.0 introduces notable changes compared to the earlier stable version, 1.0.1. Foremost is an updated dependency on readable-stream, moving from version ~2.0.5 to ~3.4.0. This upgrade likely incorporates performance improvements and bug fixes present in the newer readable-stream package, offering a more robust streaming experience. The newer version also sheds the dependency on xtend, indicating a potential internal refactoring that may simplify the package's code or provide performance gains.
Developer tooling also reflects updates. The standard linter is adopted in version 2.0.0. The tape version is upgraded from ~2.3.2 to ~4.11.0 and the Faucet version is also upgraded. These adjustments typically enhance code quality and developer workflow through improved linting, testing, and streamlined dependency management. License details change slightly, version 1.0.1 having "MIT +no-false-attribs" and version 2.0.0 having simply "MIT". These differences should be evaluated when considering migrating or choosing to use a version and can be important based on the software development context. Version 2 was released in 2019 while version 1 in 2016 indicating a long period of maintenance and updates.
