Version 2.4.0 Details

Mime version 2.4.0 represents an incremental update over version 2.3.1, offering improvements and refinements to this widely-used mime-type mapping library for Node.js. Both versions maintain the same core purpose: providing a comprehensive and reliable way to determine the MIME type of a file based on its extension.

The key differences are found in the updated development dependencies. Version 2.4.0 includes newer versions of several tools, notably eslint (upgraded from 4.6.1 to ^5.9.0) and mocha (upgraded from 3.5.3 to 5.2.0). The significant update is in mime-db (from 1.33.0 to ^1.37.0) reflecting the constant evolution of Mime specification. These updates likely incorporate bug fixes, performance enhancements, and new features within those respective development tools. Standard-version has also been updated from 4.2.0 to ^4.4.0.

For developers using the library, the functional impact of upgrading from 2.3.1 to 2.4.0 is likely minimal in terms of API changes or core functionality. The updates to development dependencies suggest a focus on improving code quality, testing procedures, and the underlying data used for mime-type lookups. The updated mime-db ensures that the library has the most current and accurate MIME type definitions. The unpacked size increases slightly from 71814 to 73137 bytes, indicating a small augmentation of the package's content.
