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 🙏

  • AxiosLogger
  • DeployEnvironments
  • HandlerError
  • JsonLoaderFromFile
  • PackageJsonReader

Configuration

  1. Add in your dependencies in your package.json
	"dependencies": {
		"@basic-tools/node-platform-tools-lib": "^1.0.0",
	},
  1. You need declare EXECUTION_MODE environment in your envs: These are the availables values: development | test | staging | production
# .env file
EXECUTION_MODE=production

If EXECUTION_MODE env don't exist it will be taken from NODE_ENV

Usages

AxiosLogger

  1. Init AxiosLogger in your code: For Example in your main.ts or index.ts
import { AxiosLogger } from '@basic-tools/node-platform-tools-lib';
AxiosLogger.config();

ExecutionsModes

  1. Use it anywhere in your code.
import { ExecutionsModes } from '@basic-tools/node-platform-tools-lib';

ExecutionsModes.isDevelopment()

HandlerError

  1. Create a middleware where you can asociate Handler Error Function:
const handler = new HandlerError();
handler.handle(request, response, exception);

import { ArgumentsHost, Catch, ExceptionFilter } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Request, Response } from 'express';
import { HttpAdapterHost } from '@nestjs/core';
import { HandlerError } from '@basic-tools/node-platform-tools-lib';

@Catch()
export class UnknownExceptionFilter implements ExceptionFilter {

	constructor(private readonly httpAdapterHost: HttpAdapterHost) {
	}

	catch(exception: any, host: ArgumentsHost) {
		try {
			const ctx = host.switchToHttp();
			const response = ctx.getResponse<Response>();
			const request = ctx.getRequest<Request>();
			const handler = new HandlerError();
			handler.handle(request, response, exception);
		} catch (e) {
			console.error('Something extrange happened try to print errors');
		}
	}
}

import { JsonLoaderFromFile } from '@basic-tools/node-platform-tools-lib';
const jsonLoaded: any = JsonLoaderFromFile.resolve(pathToFile);

PackageJsonReader

  1. Use in any place of your code
