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 🙏

Installation

You can install quickinstall to your system by running this command:

npm i -g @yoshiboi18303/quickinstall

After that just run:

quickinstall

And follow the prompts, it's that easy!


Debug Mode

This CLI provides a debug mode, if you want to get more information.

There are two ways to activate debug mode...

Way 1, config file

This method requires a configuration file, here's how you would go about this:

Step one: Create a quickinstall.json file in the current working directory (AKA, where your terminal/project is).

Step two: Replace the contents of the configuration file with this:

{
  "debug": true
}

This will enable debug mode, if you ever want it off, either set debug to false or remove the configuration file.

Way 2, debug option

This CLI also provides a --debug option, here's how to use this with the CLI:

quickinstall --debug

OR

quickinstall -d

This will add debug messages to the console.


Use this source code

Here's how you can use this CLI's source code.

Prerequisites

You will need: Node.js, npm (bundled with Node.js) and Python (optional, to run the provided scripts)

Bolded prerequisites are required.


Here's what you need to do after installing the required prerequisites:

1. Clone the repository

2. THIS IS A ONE-TIME ONLY STEP

Run this in the project directory:

npm link

3. Make whatever changes you want to the TypeScript files.

4. Once you're ready to test, run:

If you have Python installed:

npm run build

Otherwise, run:

npx tsc --outDir bin
