v0.2.0

0.2.0

Breaking Changes

• Peer dependency bumped to @zxing/library@^0.22.0 — projects still on 0.21.x must upgrade.
• BrowserCodeReader.options type narrowed — the protected readonly options property is now typed as Required<IBrowserCodeReaderOptions> instead of IBrowserCodeReaderOptions. TypeScript subclasses that read option
  properties will now receive number instead of number | undefined; runtime behaviour is unchanged.

Bug Fixes

• Removed invalid --screw-ie8 flag from the Terser minification script, which caused the build:umd:min step to fail with modern Terser.
• Fixed syntax error in the async dynamic-import example in the README.
• Corrected BrowserPDF417CodeReader → BrowserPDF417Reader in the README reader list.
• Corrected the description of BrowserCodeReader in the README (it is a concrete base class, not abstract).

Tooling & Infrastructure

• Migrated from Yarn to npm. yarn.lock removed; package-lock.json is now the lock file. Install with npm ci.
• Replaced Cypress with Jest for testing. Tests now run in Node.js via ts-jest and node-canvas, removing the need for a browser or a local HTTP server. Run with npm test.
• Migrated from TSLint to ESLint (with typescript-eslint). TSLint has been unmaintained since 2019. The new config lives in eslint.config.mjs using the ESLint 10 flat config format.
• Rollup config renamed rollup.config.js → rollup.config.mjs for explicit ESM; upgraded to Rollup 4. UMD build warnings (circular deps in @zxing/library, this-rewrite) are now suppressed via onwarn and context: 'window'.
• GitHub Actions modernised:
  • All actions bumped to latest versions (checkout@v4, setup-node@v4, cache@v4, upload-artifact@v4, download-artifact@v4).
  • Node.js upgraded from 18 → 24.
  • Deprecated ::set-output replaced with $GITHUB_OUTPUT.
  • Yarn cache steps replaced with setup-node's built-in cache: npm.
