Difference between 3.0 and 3.1

yanickrochon opened this issue · comments

Are there any differences between 3.0 and 3.1? Or rather, are there any incompatibilities between the two versions?

I am asking this because the archive in this repository and the latest tarball do not contain the same amount of files at all!

I am also asking this because I will propose a PR that will install the dictionaries directly from princeton.edu instead of keeping a 10Mb file in this repository.

@yanickrochon I'm not sure about the differences. The Princeton site is pretty sparse on the changes. I've manually created a database-files-only tar file (the one on Princeton contains much more than is needed/used by npm modules) and updated WNdb to use this file.

@moos In that case, if you can confirm what exactly are the required files for the wordpos module to properly work, I could add a filter when extracting files from the archive. This would reduce the size of the module after install and prevent having unnecessary files. Thus why I opened this issue in the first place. :)
