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 🙏

Launcher for Lex, the local-first Bible study terminal

Readme

@n8te_/lex-cli

@n8te_/lex-cli is the npm launcher for Lex, the local-first Bible study terminal.

npm install --global @n8te_/lex-cli

The first invocation downloads the latest Lex GitHub release archive, verifies its SHA-256 sidecar, creates an isolated Python 3.12+ environment, and installs Lex's Python dependencies. The npm package deliberately does not bundle Lex's large offline runtime data.

Verify

lex --version
lex help

Try It

lex John 3:16
lex study John 1:1
lex search "kingdom of god"
lex strongs G3056

Search

lex search covenant
lex search covenant --page 2
lex search covenant --page 3 --limit 20
lex search covenant -jeremiah
lex search resurrection -nt

Search runs against verse text. Use explicit scopes such as -jeremiah, -john, -nt, -major, or -pauline when you want to narrow results.

Strong's

lex strongs G3056
lex strongs G3056 --page 2 --limit 25
lex strongs G3056 --all
lex strongs love
lex strongs

Number lookups show the lexicon entry and, when available, reverse verse usage from the bundled ESV interlinear index. The result footer prints commands for the next page, more results per page, and all matches.

Launcher Notes

For development, LEX_CLI_HOME may point to an existing valid Lex checkout. Use lex --npm-version to report the launcher version without downloading the release archive.

The launcher resolves the current GitHub release on first install and falls back to its pinned release tag if that lookup is unavailable. Override it for testing with:

LEX_CLI_RELEASE_TAG=v2.6.2 lex --version
LEX_CLI_RELEASE_BASE_URL=https://example.invalid/releases lex --version
