The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 4.5.2 of the bson package!

Release Highlights

Some APIs were marked internal that should've been public. We've also add toString methods to our Int32 and Double classes that wrap Javascript's Number.toString() method.

Additionally a bug in Decimal128 was corrected where the representation string was wrongly used to find the significant digits. This impacted negative numbers of pattern -0.00XX.

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 4.5.0 of the bson module!

Release Highlights

The Timestamp constructor can now be called with a more convenient object parameter: new Timestamp({ t: number, i: number }); the existing new Timestamp(increment, timestamp) option has been deprecated.

Furthermore, this minor version significantly improves deserialization performance for buffer inputs and corrects an issue with our ESM bundles resulting from a reference to global which does not exist in web environments.

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 4.4.1 of the bson package!

Release Highlights

This patch addresses the bugs listed below. Most notably our EJSON API now correctly stringifies Infinity and NaN doubles in relaxed mode. Relaxed mode is intended for human readable JSON while non-relaxed or canonical mode can be used for data serialization since it will preserve the original BSON type. Double check you are using the correct format for your use case.

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 4.4.0 of the bson module!

Release Highlights

This release of the BSON library brings some additional convenience to our Decimal128 and Long classes.
Users can now specify the construction of these types as shown below:

const longFromBigInt = new Long(23n)
const d128FromString = new Decimal128('4.23')

Here is the new API specification:

  • [new] Decimal128(string)
  • [new] Long(string[, unsigned])
  • [new] Long(bigint[, unsigned])

Thanks so much to @addaleax to contributing a number of the fixes listed below! 🚀
