Release Notes

0.7.0

  • Removed all bigint types from TypeScript declarations, in favor of number, since bigint is not widely supported across browsers. This changes impacts:
    • Device.screenResolution
    • Device.videoResolution
    • Discovery.purchasedContent
    • Metrics.mediaProgress
    • Metrics.mediaSeeking
    • Metrics.mediaSeeked
    • Parameters.initialization

To upgrade to 0.7.0 simply change the type of any Firebolt Promise resolutions from bigint to number, e.g.:

const res:[bigint, bigint] = await Device.screenResolution()

Should become:

const res:[number, number] = await Device.screenResolution()
