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 🙏

Keyed async storage behind one adapter interface — IndexedDB, localStorage, the URL hash, memory — and an in-memory record cache that writes behind and hears other tabs. No React.

Readme

@weasel-js/storage

Keyed storage behind one async interface, StorageAdapter, with adapters for IndexedDB, localStorage, sessionStorage, the URL hash and memory. openRecords loads every record under a prefix into a RecordCache: reads are synchronous from memory, writes land in memory at once and reach storage on a debounce, and changes other tabs make arrive as remote changes.

Adapters that can read synchronously (localStorage, sessionStorage, memory) also implement listSync, and openRecordsSync opens a cache from one with no await.

A cache whose first read fails opens empty with writable false, and reads again on a backoff (retryMs, doubling to retryMaxMs; retryMs: false turns that off). cache.read() tries at once, and cache.whenRead() resolves once a read has landed. When a read lands, the cache reports the records as remote changes and starts writing, beginning with whatever was set while it waited; those writes win over what it read.

A write storage rejects stays queued and is sent again on the same backoff, and flush() resolves false until it lands. While a write is queued or on its way, another writer's change to that record is ignored. With retryMs: false a rejected write waits for the next flush.

defaultStorage() is IndexedDB under the database 'weasel', or localStorage, with a warning, where IndexedDB will not open; it chooses once per page. fallbackStorage(preferred, fallback, label) makes the same choice between any two adapters, and createDefaultStorage(preferred, label) builds a defaultStorage of your own over a different preferred adapter, such as IndexedDB under another database.
