Version 0.2.12 Details

Longjohn is a valuable tool for Node.js developers seeking improved debugging capabilities through extended stack traces, drawing inspiration from the long-stack-traces project. Version 0.2.12, released in January 2017, refines its dependency management compared to the prior stable version 0.2.11, which was released in December 2015. A key change is the more specific versioning for the source-map-support dependency, changing from just 0.3.2 to 0.3.2 - 1.0.0, indicating compatibility with a broader range of source-map-support versions, potentially resolving compatibility issues for users.

Furthermore, version 0.2.12 upgrades the development dependencies including significant version bumps for grunt, grunt-cli, and mocha, while the older version used tilde (~) version ranges for grunt and grunt-contrib-coffee and "latest" for mocha and coffee-script. These updates incorporate the latest build and testing tools at the time, potentially leading to more robust builds and testing during the development process of Longjohn itself.

For developers using the library, the core functionality of providing long stack traces remains consistent. However, developers should consider the updated dependency constraints in version 0.2.12, which could impact compatibility with their existing projects or necessitate adjustments in their dependency management strategies. The update to newer grunt and mocha versions may also indicate internal improvements or bug fixes indirectly benefiting users through a more stable and reliable library.
