The schemes npm package, version 1.0.0, provides a comprehensive list of IANA Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) schemes, enhanced by a collection of unofficial schemes crowdsourced from the community. This version, released in April 2015, caters to developers needing a readily available and extensive registry of URI schemes for tasks like URL validation, protocol identification, and building applications that interact with diverse internet protocols.
This initial stable release depends on the extend package (version 2.0.0 or higher) for object extension functionalities. Its development dependencies include chalk for colored console output, cheerio for parsing and manipulating HTML, and simple-get for making HTTP requests. These tools were primarily used for building and maintaining the scheme list itself.
For developers utilizing this specific version, the primary value lies in the consolidated URI scheme data. If the previous stable version is absent or significantly older, a move to 1.0.0 represents access to a potentially larger and more up-to-date scheme repository. However, developers relying on later functionalities, bug fixes, and updated dependencies won't find here these new features. The MIT license offers considerable freedom in how the package is integrated into different software projects encouraging its use in both open-source and commercial contexts. Before adoption, developers should assess whether the included schemes meet their specific requirements, considering that the list incorporates community-sourced data and might require further validation in certain applications.
