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 🙏

Loader and parser for the PDS file format.

Readme

PDS Loader

Utility for loading PDS file data formats as described here. Example files available here.

!> Note that this package is built to support specific downlink products and does not support the whole PDS spec as a result. The loader can be expanded as needed.

Use

import { PDSLoader } from '@gov.nasa.jpl.honeycomb/pds-loader';
const loader = new PDSLoader();
loader.load('./path/to/file.vicar').then(res => {

    // ... pds file contents ...

});

API

PDSResult

labels

labels : Array<{ isLabelGroup : Boolean, name : String, value : any }>

The set of header labels in the file. This includes both the header and EOL extension labels if present.

product

product : VicarResult | null = null

The image stored in the file based on the Vicar loader result.

This is present only if there are no product pointers in the header OR if there are only IMAGE and IMAGE_HEADER objects that point to Vicar data in the same file.

products

products : Array<VicarResult | null> = null

The set of products pointed to by the header in either this file or separate ones.

!> Note this is not currently implemented and separated data products will never be represented here.

PDSLoader

Class for loading and parsing PDS files.

fetchOptions

fetchOptions : Object = { credentials: 'same-origin' }

Fetch options for loading the file.

load

load( url : String ) : Promise<PDSResult>

Loads and parses the PDS file. The promise resolves with the returned data from the parse function.

parse

parse( buffer : Uint8Array | ArrayBuffer ) : PDSResult

Parses the contents of the given PDS file and returns an object describing the telemetry.
