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 🙏

NodeJS module to create polyfill bundles tailored to individual user-agents

Install

npm install @mrhenry/polyfill-library --save

Usage

const polyfillLibrary = require('@mrhenry/polyfill-library');
const UA = require('@financial-times/polyfill-useragent-normaliser');

const polyfillBundle = polyfillLibrary.getPolyfillString({
	ua: new UA('Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; en-US)'),
	minify: true,
	features: {
		'es6': { flags: ['gated'] }
	}
}).then(function(bundleString) {
	console.log(bundleString);
});

API

polyfillLibrary.listAllPolyfills()

Get a list of all the polyfills which exist within the collection of polyfill sources.

Returns a Promise which resolves with an array of all the polyfills within the collection.

polyfillLibrary.describePolyfill(featureName)

Get the metadata for a specific polyfill within the collection of polyfill sources.

  • @param {String} featureName - The name of a polyfill whose metadata should be returned.

Returns a Promise which resolves with the metadata or with undefined if no metadata exists for the polyfill.

polyfillLibrary.getOptions(opts = {})

Create an options object for use with getPolyfills or getPolyfillString.

  • @param {object} opts - Valid keys are ua, minify, unknown, excludes and features.
  • @param {Boolean} [opts.minify=true] - Whether to return the minified or raw implementation of the polyfills.
  • @param {'ignore'|'polyfill'} [opts.unknown='polyfill'] - Whether to return all polyfills or no polyfills if the user-agent is unknown or unsupported.
  • @param {Object} [opts.features={}] - Which features should be returned if the user-agent does not support them natively.
  • @param {Array<String>} [opts.excludes=[]] - Which features should be excluded from the returned object.
  • @param {Object} [opts.ua={}] - The user-agent object to check each feature against.

Returns an object which has merged opts with the defaults option values.

polyfillLibrary.getPolyfills(opts)

Given a set of features that should be polyfilled in 'opts.features' (with flags i.e. {<featurename>: {flags:Set[<flaglist>]}, ...}), determine which have a configuration valid for the given opts.ua, and return a promise of set of canonical (unaliased) features (with flags) and polyfills.

  • @param {object} opts - Valid keys are ua, minify, unknown, excludes and features.
  • @param {Boolean} [opts.minify=true] - Whether to return the minified or raw implementation of the polyfills.
  • @param {'ignore'|'polyfill'} [opts.unknown='polyfill'] - Whether to return all polyfills or no polyfills if the user-agent is unknown or unsupported.
  • @param {Object} [opts.features={}] - Which features should be returned if the user-agent does not support them natively.
  • @param {Array<String>} [opts.excludes=[]] - Which features should be excluded from the returned object.
  • @param {Object} [opts.ua={}] - The user-agent object to check each feature against.

Returns a Promise which resolves to an Object which contains the canonicalised feature definitions filtered for UA.

polyfillLibrary.getPolyfillString(opts)

Create a polyfill bundle.

  • @param {object} opts - Valid keys are ua, minify, unknown, excludes and features.
  • @param {Boolean} [opts.minify=true] - Whether to return the minified or raw implementation of the polyfills.
  • @param {'ignore'|'polyfill'} [opts.unknown='polyfill'] - Whether to return all polyfills or no polyfills if the user-agent is unknown or unsupported.
  • @param {Object} [opts.features={}] - Which features should be returned if the user-agent does not support them natively.
  • @param {Array<String>} [opts.excludes=[]] - Which features should be excluded from the returned object.
  • @param {Object} [opts.ua={}] - The user-agent object to check each feature against.
  • @param {Boolean} [opts.stream=false] - Whether to return a stream or a string of the polyfill bundle.

Returns a polyfill bundle as either a utf-8 ReadStream or as a Promise of a utf-8 String.
