Is this lib deprecated? #173

Hello I'm getting this error in npm when I install loopback npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported

Also curious the background on this. If you need a new maintainer, we're willing to take it on at @readmeio.

ahmadnassri commented 4 years ago

indeed, i'm no longer able to maintain this library.

complications include:

being nested in dep chain of many projects due to request lib using it (my fault)
npm cli itself is indirectly dependant on this library, npm -> request -> har-validator which also means the entirety of Node.js is dependant on this library not breaking, since Node.js ships with the npm cli.

if you're wiling to take ownership of it, I can happily pass it, but be warned, and do your research first (see issues for history of pain) to see what you're adopting.

ahmadnassri commented 4 years ago

that said, this is technically feature complete, and aside from dependency updates (because security warnings) there is not much to improve / add / change in the functionality ...

ktalebian commented 3 years ago

@ahmadnassri since this is now marked as no longer supported, it always logs

npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported

Whenever you are using a package that depends on this. Can we either transfer the ownership or undo the npm warning?

I think the deprecation and the warning are functionning as expected, if you don't want to see warnings, set the npm loglevel to error
