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 🙏

Readme

@frag-ment/better-sqlite3-sqlcipher

SQLCipher-enabled adapter around better-sqlite3, plus helper scripts to bootstrap a working SQLCipher runtime (notably in Electron contexts).

Role

  • Provides a small typed adapter around better-sqlite3 + SQLCipher PRAGMAs.
  • Keeps native encryption concerns outside app business/UI layers.
  • Makes extraction to a dedicated repository straightforward later.

Public API

  • openEncryptedDatabase(options)
  • closeDatabase()
  • runMigrations(migrate)
  • isCipherAvailable(databaseCtor?)
  • applySecurityPragmas(db, passphrase, options?)

Install

npm i @frag-ment/better-sqlite3-sqlcipher

postinstall tries to bootstrap automatically (best effort). If it fails, install still succeeds and you can run strict mode manually.

For deterministic local/CI setup, run strict mode manually:

npm run sqlcipher:bootstrap:strict

Host app resolution:

  • Scripts use FRAGMENT_APP_ROOT (or INIT_CWD) to find the host app root.
  • If Electron version is not found in host package.json, set ELECTRON_VERSION explicitly.

System dependencies

Linux build dependencies are the same as the desktop app native toolchain: build-essential, python, OpenSSL dev headers and node-gyp compatible environment.

Runtime versions

  • Node.js: >=22.14.0
  • Electron host app: 35.1.4
