React-copy-to-clipboard has undergone notable updates between versions 3.0.4 and 4.0.0, potentially affecting developers considering an upgrade. Both versions share the core functionality of providing a React component for easy copy-to-clipboard interactions, relying on the same "copy-to-clipboard" dependency.
The significant changes lie in the development dependencies, reflecting shifts in the JavaScript ecosystem and build processes. Version 4.0.0 showcases a move towards newer Babel versions (6.x) for transpilation, along with related presets and plugins like "transform-object-rest-spread," indicating support for modern JavaScript syntax. Webpack is also updated and the introduction of tools such as codecov.io hints at improved code coverage analysis. Furthermore, version 4.0.0 uses nightwatch-autorun suggesting that the project automated its tests by using Nightwatch.
Version 3.0.4, on the other hand, relies on older versions of Babel (5.x) and webpack (1.12.2) along with testing tools like karma and jasmine. The react and react-dom peer dependencies have also been updated, version 4.0.0 only supporting react version 0.14 whereas version 3.0.4 supports0.13 || ^0.14 . Developers upgrading should be aware of these changes, especially the peer dependencies to assure compatibility with their React versions, and be prepared to adjust their build configurations accordingly. Projects already using newer Babel and Webpack setups might find version 4.0.0 a smoother integration.
