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 🙏

Framework-agnostic data fetching package with support for sync/async and SSR/CSR operations

Readme

DEMO Function/usage for the component.


type UserData = {
    id: number;
    name: string;
};

// Dummy asynchronous fetcher function
async function asyncFetchUserData(): Promise<UserData> {
    // Simulate an async operation (e.g., API call)
    return new Promise((resolve) => {
        setTimeout(() => {
            resolve({ id: 1, name: 'John Doe (async)' });
        }, 500);
    });
}

// Dummy synchronous fetcher function
function syncFetchUserData(): UserData {
    // Simulate a synchronous operation
    return { id: 2, name: 'Jane Doe (sync)' };
}

// Configuration for local file system fetching (server mode)
// Ensure that the file exists at the given path or this will throw an error.
const localConfig: FetchConfig = {
    mode: 'server',
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'data', 'user.json') // e.g., ./data/user.json
};

// Configuration for remote fetching (client mode)
const remoteConfig: FetchConfig = {
    mode: 'client',
    url: 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/1'
};

// Create asynchronous fetchers using the factory functions
const asyncLargeUserFetcher = CreateAsyncLarge(asyncFetchUserData, localConfig);
const asyncSmallUserFetcher = CreateAsyncSmall(asyncFetchUserData, remoteConfig);

// Create synchronous fetchers using the factory functions
const syncLargeUserFetcher = CreateSyncLarge(syncFetchUserData, localConfig);
const syncSmallUserFetcher = CreateSyncSmall(syncFetchUserData, remoteConfig);

// Register fetchers in the global registry for later retrieval if needed
globalRegistry.register(asyncFetchUserData, 'asyncUserLocal', localConfig);
globalRegistry.register(syncFetchUserData, 'syncUserLocal', localConfig);
globalRegistry.register(asyncFetchUserData, 'asyncUserRemote', remoteConfig);
globalRegistry.register(syncFetchUserData, 'syncUserRemote', remoteConfig);

        console.log('Sync Remote Data (fallback):', remoteSyncData);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error in syncSmall (fallback):', error);
    }

    const registeredFetcher = globalRegistry.get<UserData>('asyncUserLocal');
    if (registeredFetcher) {
        try {
            const registryData = await registeredFetcher.fetcher();
