v0.0.7

README Changes

• [Enhancement] Updated minified script size statistics based on new minification method

Bug fixes

• [Fix] UglifyJS was mangling the .min.js version of the file, so much so that it straight up wouldn't work in some browsers/environments. Stripped out the uglification and for now have gone with a "simple" minification method (via Google's Closure Compiler)

v0.0.6

README Changes

• [New] Add "with inline comments" size stat
• [New] Added a GitHub hit counter (because that's How Idiots Track Success)
• [Enhancement] Updated script size statistics
• [Enhancement] Updated script size stats now there's Promise support

Bug fixes

• [Fix] Re-add missing }
• [Fix] dynamicPolyfill() was passing each polyfill item through to polyfill.io individually, rather than all at once. This was resulting in each item within an array (for example, 3 items needing polyfill) having it's own polyfill.io request - a waste of 2 requests for example!
• [Fix] Fix an issue where polyfill's were being individually called, due to missing .join(","); on the end of filtering through the polyfillReq array

Script Changes

• [New] Included polyfill for Promise dependency (see #1)
• [New] Added a lastWord in firstWord.prototype != true and split out checks for array items containing .'s into nested if's as we were getting false positives 😢
• [Enhancement] JSLint'ed the scripts - now we have nice and consistent formatting!
• [Enhancement] Move a couple of var's around, so that if they're not needed (aka if if (check.indexOf(splitChars) >= 1) is not true) don't use them/don't generate the overhead
• [Enhancement] Store the polyfill.io URL as a const so it can be reused (rather than having duplicates all over the place!)
• [Enhancement] Furthermore, if nothing needed polyfilling, we were still calling out to polyfill.io for absolutely nothing... a wasted request!
• [Enhancement] Minified using Uglify: The minified output (1079 bytes, saved 69.48%)

File additions

• [New] Create a version of the script with inline comments, so that people can understand what each line is doing and why... might help with further development?

README

Updated parameter details
Updated example scripts
Updated deployment instructions (include "local")
Updated stats

The actual scripts

Major overhaul:

• I realised I had two functions that were simply there to call other functions. They weren't doing anything for themselves! Therefore, function dynamicPolyfill, function pageLoaded and function checkNativeSupport have now all been combined into a single, function: function dynamicPolyfill - closes #14
• Allow array to be passed for:
  • features (parameter 1)
  • scriptURL (parameter 2)
  • initFunction (parameter 3)
    You can still pass simple strings to each if you want though
    Closes #10 and closes #8
• Iterate through array values using Array.forEach()
• Split out loadMyScript repeated code into a helper function - minimising duplication! See #12.
• Refactored init function to include a micro-helper function to avoid duplication! See #12.
• initialiseMyScript is no longer called from the "core" pageLoaded function - instead it is called depending on whether the scripts that are to be used have loaded or not. See #12.
• initialiseMyScript had an unnecessary var (var fn = new Function) which has been instead moved inline into the try{}. See #12.
• fns in loadPolyfill was unused... not sure how it even got there! See #12.
• Fix erroneous try{}catch{}
• Remove console.log from dynamicPolyfill.js that shouldn't have remained
• Fix issue where if initFunction wasn't an array, it wouldn't execute
• Order functions logically
• Inline comments to explain what each step is doing
• Retain backwards compatibility!
• Support for Safari and its weird behaviours. Closes #13.
• General tidying up of code. See #12.
• Formatting fixes
• Add various console messages to dynamicpolyfill-consolemessages.js for troubleshooting/debugging/fun purposes [NOW DEPRECATED]

Deprecated dynamicpolyfill-consolemessages.js due to complexity to maintain (if you really want it - log an issue and I'll re-add it!)
