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 🙏

About

Hitchy is a fast server-side framework focusing on these features:

  • Easily discovering plugins.
  • Quickly dispatching incoming requests to handlers of discovered plugins.

Thus, Hitchy starts lean and requires some plugin to help with conveniently managing data. This package is taking that spot. It is an object document management (ODM) system for Hitchy.

This package works on top of a key-value store like LevelDB. It is using any such store via some backend API. There are two backends included with this package, but neither of them is for LevelDB to keep the number of dependencies as little as possible.

  • A memory-based adapter manages data in volatile runtime memory mostly for developing and testing purposes. It is the default backend.
  • A filesystem-based adapter is storing all data in a controllable folder of your local filesystem. This backend is suitable for persistently storing data.

In addition, there is a separate plugin providing an adapter for using an etcd3 cluster as backend.

Is It Ready For Production?

This plugin supports index-backed searching. This indexing is fixing one of the most severe bottlenecks of its filesystem-based adapter by strongly improving performance on searching instances by indexed properties. Thus, we believe Hitchy and its ODM are ready for use in real-world applications.

Of course, this package isn't meant to compete with established database engines like MySQL or MongoDB. However, most applications don't require the performance provided by those engines either. As a benefit, using Hitchy in combination with this ODM comes with very little prerequisites to be met by server-side setups. Just imagine running real-world applications out of the box on any server you like. All you need on a server is Node.js. Putting your whole application in a single rather simple Docker container is an option, too. That's following one of the core-principles of Hitchy: getting rid of dependencies as good as possible.
