Response object IPv4/IPv6 output differs between code/tests and documentation

Closed this issue · 1 comments

The getdns-node readme has since 2014 mentioned that IPv4 and IPv6 dictionary entries will be converted to plain strings for example in just_address_answers. The code has at the same time not done this, with tests to confirm it.

{
  "answer_type": 800,
  "canonical_name": "getdnsapi.net.",
  "just_address_answers": [
    "2a04:b900:0:100::37",
    "185.49.141.37"
  ],
  ...
}

This should be fixed, but after three years I don't think it can be seen as a bugfix semver bump. I think it should be a full version bump; see #15.

With getdns-node v2.0.0-alpha.1 being released (see #22) I'll close this issue.
