geolib 4.0.0 on Node.js Yarn

4.0.0 (2026-10-08)

isPointInPolygon treats polygon edges that span more
than 180 (but less than 360) degrees of longitude as crossing the
antimeridian. Polygons that relied on such edges going the long way
around need an additional vertex in between.
computeDestinationPoint uses earthRadius
(6,378,137 meters) as its default radius, which moves results by about
0.1%. Pass 6371000 as the fourth argument to get the previous results.
getDistanceFromLine now rounds its result to the given
accuracy (1 meter by default) and returns more precise values. Pass an
accuracy of 0 to get the unrounded distance.
The geolib/es/* and geolib/lib/* deep imports are
gone. Import named functions from the package root instead, e.g.
import { getDistance } from 'geolib', which is fully tree-shakeable
now. The browser build moved from lib/index.js to
dist/geolib.iife.js and no longer supports AMD loaders. There is no
default export: use import * as geolib from 'geolib' instead of
import geolib from 'geolib'. The output targets ES2020, so very old
browsers such as Internet Explorer are no longer supported, and the type
definitions require TypeScript 4.7 or newer.
