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 🙏

Gulp module for packaging a NodeJS project for deployment

Description

Will generate a tar.gz package of the project with included package.json. It adds to the package.json a build property that will be the revision option if provided.

This gulp plugin is opinionated and is used across our projects.

Installation

$ npm install @firma-de/gulp-package

Usage

Basic usage :

const pack = require("@firma-de/gulp-package");

return gulp
    .src( [
        "./.build/**/*",
        "./config/**"
    ], { base : "./.build" } )
    .pipe( pack( {
        revision : `${your_git_revision}`,
        branch : `${your_git_branch}`
    } ) )
    .pipe( gulp.dest( "./package" ) )

With this configuration options it will create a tar.gz file that has as a root ./build folder and inside it will copy ./config and the package.json of the project.

It will add to the package.json revision property from the configuration and it will name the file pkgName-gitBranch-gitRev.tar.gz

Options

revision

The revision number that will be included in package.json and in the name of the final file.

Usually this can be env variable from your build, e.g. :

{ revision: process.env["CIRCLE_SHA1"] }

Value : String

Default Value : snapshot

branch

Branch of the package. It's used for the name of the package file.

Usually this can be env variable from your build, e.g. :

{ branch: process.env["CIRCLE_BRANCH"] }

Value : String

Default Value : branchless
