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 🙏

@mdp/discord-dump

CI

Minimal CLI to export messages from a Discord channel as JSON or markdown.

Usage

DISCORD_TOKEN=<token> npx @mdp/discord-dump [--text] <channelId> [limit] [output]

| Argument | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | channelId | — | Discord channel ID (required) | | limit | 500 | Number of messages to fetch | | output | stdout | File path to write to |

| Flag | Description | |---|---| | --text | Output markdown instead of JSON |

Examples

# JSON to stdout
DISCORD_TOKEN="Bot xxx" npx @mdp/discord-dump YOUR_CHANNEL_ID

# Last 100 messages as markdown, copied to clipboard
DISCORD_TOKEN="Bot xxx" npx @mdp/discord-dump --text YOUR_CHANNEL_ID 100 | pbcopy

# Save 500 messages as JSON
DISCORD_TOKEN="Bot xxx" npx @mdp/discord-dump YOUR_CHANNEL_ID 500 messages.json

# Save 500 messages as markdown
DISCORD_TOKEN="Bot xxx" npx @mdp/discord-dump --text YOUR_CHANNEL_ID 500 messages.md

Token

Set DISCORD_TOKEN in your environment. Two formats are supported:

  • Bot token: Bot MTk4N... (requires MESSAGE_CONTENT privileged intent in the Developer Portal for non-slash-command content)
  • User token: raw token string, no prefix

Rate limiting

Respects Discord's advisory rate-limit headers and retries on 429 with exponential backoff (up to 8 attempts). Progress is written to stderr so stdout stays clean for piping.
