Full Changelog: v2.0.0...v2.0.1

Lunar Phase v2.0.0

Though the API is largely unchanged, major rework of the package has been implemented.

First, this project was ported to TypeScript and now features type declaration for inclusion in TypeScript projects.

Second, the build pipeline has been converted to Vite, now featuring CJS, ESM, UMD, and IIFE builds.

There are potentially three breaking changes.

Options params instead of Hemisphere

To better support features requests, this package is moving to an options pattern instead of individual parameters of functions.

This should only effect those who specify Hemisphere, such as Southern Hemisphere for lunar emoji.

Formerly called as:

import { Hemisphere, Moon } from "lunarphase-js";

Moon.lunarPhaseEmoji(new Date, Hemisphere.SOUTHERN);

Now called via options as:

import { Hemisphere, Moon } from "lunarphase-js";

Moon.lunarPhaseEmoji(new Date(), {
  hemisphere: Hemisphere.SOUTHERN,
});

Julian vs JulianDay

The JulianDay instance is now just Julian.

Formerly called as:

import { JulianDay } from "lunarphase-js";

JulianDay.fromDate();

Now called via Julian

import { Julian } from "lunarphase-js";

Julian.fromDate();

Emoji constants

Emoji per hemisphere are now just two constant enumerations.

Formerly these would be accessed via nested constants:

LunarEmoji.NorthernHemisphere
LunarEmoji.SouthernHemisphere

Now, each set is simply accessed individually:

import {
  NorthernHemisphereLunarEmoji,
  SouthernHemisphereLunarEmoji,
} from "lunarphase-js";

NorthernHemisphereLunarEmoji["FULL"]
SouthernHemisphereLunarEmoji["FULL"]

Log an issue and I will assist in any migration issues.

Synodic month accuracy increased, based on Mean Synodic Month, 2000 AD mean solar days.

Project Updates

The following updates were implemented.

Project

Converting project to TypeScript, but retaining functional implementation as modules.

Imports

Replacing the glob import with a module export.

This is currently implemented as:

import * as Moon from 'lunarphase-js';

Instead, I'm changing this to:

import { Moon } from 'lunarphase-js';

RESTful API

Eliminating all the get prefixes on the method signatures for a more RESTful API.

Structure

Isolating some enumerations, constants, and date calculations.
