Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@aligheisar/fetch-kit

v0.1.1

Published

A type-safe Fetch API wrapper with optional runtime validation.

Readme

@aligheisar/fetch-kit

A small, focused fetch wrapper with optional runtime validation.

fetch-kit provides a thin, predictable layer on top of the native Fetch API. It gives you a small set of focused fetch helpers with different levels of safety, depending on what you need.

No abstractions you didn’t ask for. Just safer data handling.

Installation

npm install @aligheisar/fetch-kit

or

pnpm add @aligheisar/fetch-kit

or

yarn add @aligheisar/fetch-kit

cFetch

import { cFetch } from "@aligheisar/fetch-kit";

API

function cFetch<T = unknown>(
  url: UrlType,
  options?: FetchOptions
): Promise<T>;

Example

type User = {
  id: string;
  name: string;
};

const user = await cFetch<User>("/api/user");

cFetch assumes the response body already matches your expectations. No runtime validation is performed.

vFetch (validated fetch)

import { vFetch } from "@aligheisar/fetch-kit/v-fetch";

vFetch parses and validates the response using a Valibot schema. If validation fails, an error is thrown.

Note To use vFetch, you must install valibot as a dependency:

npm install valibot

API

function vFetch<
  Schema extends BaseSchema<unknown, unknown, BaseIssue<unknown>>
>(
  url: UrlType,
  schema: Schema,
  options?: FetchOptions
): Promise<InferOutput<Schema>>;

Example

import { object, string } from "valibot";
import { vFetch } from "@aligheisar/fetch-kit/v-fetch";

const UserSchema = object({
  id: string(),
  name: string(),
});

const user = await vFetch("/api/user", UserSchema);

If the API returns invalid data, vFetch fails fast instead of letting bad data flow through your app.
