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 🙏

Official Playwright adapter for @hsblabs/scrape-kdl

Readme

@hsblabs/scrape-kdl-playwright

Official Playwright adapter for @hsblabs/scrape-kdl. It requires Node.js 22 or later and pins Playwright 1.61.1. Chromium is supported; Firefox and WebKit are exercised as non-blocking best-effort targets.

Release artifacts use the exact matching core candidate and are installed together in a clean consumer before publication. Use the repository's responsible-use guidance before targeting a live service.

import { chromium } from "playwright";
import { compile } from "@hsblabs/scrape-kdl";
import { PlaywrightAdapter } from "@hsblabs/scrape-kdl-playwright";

const browser = await chromium.launch({ headless: true });
const adapter = new PlaywrightAdapter(browser);
try {
  const { program, diagnostics } = await compile(source);
  if (!program) throw new Error(JSON.stringify(diagnostics));
  const result = await program.extract(inputs, {
    browser: adapter,
    allowJavaScript: true, // only for trusted specifications
  });
  // use result
} finally {
  await adapter.close();
  await browser.close();
}

The adapter creates a fresh isolated BrowserContext for every navigation and implements the extraction-wide lease. Session headers, cookies, and user agent apply only to that context. Timeout or cancellation invalidates the context before the lease is released, so an interrupted Playwright operation cannot continue into the next extraction. close() closes adapter-owned contexts; the caller continues to own the Browser.

See docs/playwright-adapter.md for concrete behavior and docs/browser-runtime.md for the browser-library-neutral author contract.
