1.8.1 + 1.8.2:

(unpublished due to version mismatch)

1.8.0:

• new features:
  • function jsl.seededRNG.generateSeededNumbers(count, seed) to generate "random" numbers based on a passed seed
  • function jsl.seededRNG.generateRandomSeed(digitCount) to generate a random seed to be used in jsl.generateSeededNumbers()
  • function jsl.seededRNG.validateSeed(seed) to check whether or not a seed is valid
  • function jsl.mapRange(value, range_1_min, range_1_max, range_2_min, range_2_max) to transform a value from one numerical range to another
  • function jsl.downloadFile(url, destPath, options) to download a file from a URL
  • function jsl.unused(any_var) to indicate an unused variable to a linter
  • function jsl.replaceAt(input: str, index: number, replacement: str) to replace a character at the specified index of a string with a replacement
  • function jsl.randomizeArray(array: array) to randomize the indexes of the items of an array
  • object colors to make it easier to add colors to the console output - this will replace jsl.consoleColor()
  • class MenuPrompt for an interactive menu (directly in the CLI) - methods:
    • open() to open the prompt
    • addMenu() to add a new menu to the prompt
    • validateMenu() to check whether a menu is invalid
    • currentMenu() to get the current menu index
    • close() to prematurely close the prompt and get the results
    • result() to prematurely get the results of the prompt (without closing it)
  • added unit tests for every function, class and object. They can be run with npm test or node unittest
• improvements / fixes:
  • added support for ESLint (use npm i --save-dev and then npm run lint)
  • improved time measurement system for jsl.ping()
  • improved the background stuff in jsl.ping() to improve performance
  • added contentType property to jsl.ping()'s promise callback
  • edited a bunch of functions and methods to throw an error instead of returning it as a string, which could've caused unwanted and unpredictable behavior
  • put the UUID generation inside an object, renamed it and added four new ones:
    • generateUUID.hexadecimal(format: str, upperCase: bool) [0-9,a-f/A-F]
    • generateUUID.alphanumerical(format: str, upperCase: bool) [0-9,a-z/A-Z]
    • generateUUID.decimal(format: str) [0-9]
    • generateUUID.binary(format: str) [0-1]
    • generateUUID.custom(format: str, possibleValues: str) [Custom]
  • added contributors and documentation properties to the jsl.info object
  • removed the signal SIGKILL from the shutdown prevention functions as SIGKILL is intended as a signal that forces a process to be exited no matter what
  • rewrote the entire README.md
  • restructured the entire script to separate each function into its own file
  • fixed isEmpty()'s object-with-length-0-detection

1.7.0:

• added ProgressBar class to create a dynamic progress bar
• added function jsl.readdirRecursive(folder, callback(err, result){}) to read a folder and its subfolders asynchronously

• added function jsl.readableArray(array, separators, lastSeparator) to make an array more easily human-readable
• split the package up into three separate files

1.6.6:

• removed jsl.settings completely
• updated documentation for jsl.ping()

1.6.5:

• changed dependency perf_hooks to execution-time because a feature was deprecated
