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 🙏

Fetcher

A utility class for managing fetch requests with cancellation and retry capabilities.

The Fetcher class provides a simple way to make fetch requests with built-in support for cancellation and retry attempts. It allows you to create a singleton fetch function that can be used to make requests to a specific resource, and also provides a method for making one-off fetch requests.

Key Features

  • Cancellation: Abort ongoing requests and reset the loading state.
  • Retry: Configure retry attempts and wait time for failed requests.
  • Singleton fetch function: Create a reusable fetch function for a specific resource.
  • One-off fetch requests: Make ad-hoc fetch requests with cancellation support.

Example

import { Fetcher } from "@supercat1337/fetcher";

const fetcher_test_button = document.getElementById("fetcher_test_button");
const fetcher_test_button_2 = document.getElementById("fetcher_test_button_2");
const fetcher_test_button_3 = document.getElementById("fetcher_test_button_3");
const cancel_fetcher_button = document.getElementById("cancel_fetcher_button");

const fetcher = new Fetcher();
const fetch_1 = fetcher.createFetchFunction({ retryCount: 10, waitTime: 5000 });
const fetch_2 = fetcher.createFetchFunction({ retryCount: 10, waitTime: 5000 });
const fetch_3 = fetcher.createFetchFunction({ retryCount: 10, waitTime: 5000 });

cancel_fetcher_button.addEventListener("click", () => {
  fetcher.cancel();
});

fetcher_test_button.addEventListener("click", async () => {
  try {
    let response = await fetch_1(
      "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1"
    );
    console.log(response);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
});

fetcher_test_button_2.addEventListener("click", async () => {
  try {
    let response = await fetch_2(
      "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/2"
    );
    console.log(response);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
});

fetcher_test_button_3.addEventListener("click", async () => {
  try {
    let response = await fetch_3(
      "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/3"
    );
    console.log(response);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
});
