Renaming of library
Hey fellow developers!
As everyone knows, the name of the library is not suited anymore, because Angular is in version 4 now. To make the name more clear, I want to change the name to a "version-independent" name. Does anyone have a strong opinion on this and good suggestions for the perfect name?
@safo6m suggestion was ngx-json-api-store, what do you think about this?
How about just ngx-jsonapi? Clear and concise.
On a side note, great work by everyone on this library!
One other thing to ponder:
Does the library really need to be renamed? It seems like most Angular developers realize that Angular 2 libraries work with newer versions. That said, might be more of a hassle than it's worth.
Food for thought 👍
There is a peer dependency for Angular 4, so the current lib name is misleading. Also, Angular team suggests not to put framework version into the name.
For me, +1 for @jamesdixon suggestion. I like ngx-jsonapi :) But what happens for developers looking for upgrades for the current library? Will they find new versions if we change the name?
You can deprecated the old version on npm and a warning will be displayed if someone installs that deprecated version (I think you can specify a warning message).
