Changes

• To ensure proper package operation, the node engine version has been updated to the latest LTS release (10.16.3). Please note that while Travis still builds against node versions all the way back to node v6 for the time being, I cannot support this package for any node version other than LTS.

Replace `new Buffer` with `Buffer.from`

Improvements

• Replaced new Buffer with Buffer.from (#12). new Buffer has been deprecated since Node.js v6.0.0. Thank you @ThatBean!
• Upgraded dependencies.

Fixes

Improved

Housekeeping

Fixes

• Fixed readme badge URLs.

Fix to object name parsing

PLEASE NOTE: This release does not contain the bignum changes in 0.2.1 since they were ultimately poorly implemented and never actually made it into master (see #5). 0.2.1 should not even be a tag or a release but I'm leaving it alone in case people are using it. I'm sorry for the confusion.

Please consider 0.2.2 the successor of 0.2.0.

Fixes

• Fix to object name parsing. #6 (🎩 @IamIpanda and @Yangff)
