Through2 is a lightweight wrapper around Node's streams2 Transform, designed to streamline the creation of transform streams without the verbosity of manual subclassing. Comparing versions 0.5.0 and 0.5.1, the primary difference lies in the dependencies. Version 0.5.1 updates xtend from ~2.1.1 to ~3.0.0. and the releaseDate is different. This xtend update could potentially impact how object properties are extended or merged within the stream, warranting a review if you heavily rely on through2's internal object manipulation features.
For developers choosing between these versions, consider the project's existing dependency management strategy. If staying current with the xtend package is a priority, version 0.5.1 is the clear choice. However, be sure to consult the xtend changelog for any breaking changes introduced by the major version update and regression test to ensure compatibility. Otherwise, version 0.5.0 provides a stable baseline. Both versions offer the core benefit of simplifying stream transformations, making it easier to pipe data through custom processing logic.
