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 🙏

fortunes-list

This forks of jimkang's fortune-tweetable that forks of williamfligor's fortune also makes the content of the old fortune Unix command available to Node programs, with the following changes:

  • All of the fortunes under fortunes/off and a few other fortune files that had similar "Truly Tasteless Jokes"-type content. Don't worry – there's probably still plenty of cringeworthy crotchety uncle stuff left in there.

  • convert.js, which converts the fortunes to JSON has been modified to omit any fortune over 140 characters.

  • Added "keys()" to get all fortune topics.

  • Added "key" prop to "fortune()" to get all specific topic fortune.

This will run the postinstall script from package.json. If you modify the contents of the fortunes directory run npm run-script postinstall to rebuild the JSON files that the module uses to get fortunes.

Usage

const fortunes = require('fortunes-list')
console.log(fortunes.keys())
console.log(fortunes.fortune())
console.log(fortunes.fortune('art'))
