Version 0.7.4 Details

Websocket-driver is a versatile Node.js package designed for robust WebSocket protocol handling, offering developers the ability to implement WebSocket communication with pluggable I/O. Comparing versions 0.7.3 and 0.7.4, the key difference lies in the dependency requirements for http-parser-js. Version 0.7.3 specifies a range of acceptable versions, ">=0.4.0 <0.4.11", potentially limiting compatibility with newer releases of http-parser-js. Version 0.7.4 broadens this compatibility, requiring ">=0.5.1". This update ensures smoother integration with more recent versions of http-parser-js, reducing the risk of dependency conflicts and potentially unlocking performance improvements or bug fixes included in those later releases. Both versions maintain dependencies on safe-buffer (>=5.1.0) and websocket-extensions (>=0.1.1), essential components for safe buffer handling and WebSocket extension negotiation respectively. Developers should note that both versions are licensed under Apache-2.0, offering considerable freedom in their use. The releaseDate indicates that version 0.7.4 was released roughly a year after 0.7.3, suggesting accumulated updates and refinements. If you were using a version of http-parser-js outside of the range specified in 0.7.3 then updating to 0.7.4 would allow continued compatibility. Using version 0.7.4 is encouraged for better compatibility and potentially improved stability especially when using newer versions of core dependencies.
