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 🙏

An adb wrapper that provides some helpful functions for working with apps on external displays on Android desktop mode

Usage

parseDisplayInfo(data)

Parses a DisplayInfo object to JSON. This is mainly intended to be used internally by getDisplays().

  • data: A string containing DisplayInfo data. See the DisplayInfo source (especially the toString() function) for more info.

getDisplays()

Returns an array of DisplayInfo objects. See https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/java/android/view/DisplayInfo.java for more info on what's included. To avoid issues when translationg to a JSON structure, any entries that were singular values rather than key/value pairs are put inside a _flags array, since most are intended to be flags. However, as you can see in the toString() function of the DisplayInfo source linked above, the first value entered is always the name of the device, so this will always be the first item in _flags.

getDensity(displayId)

Returns the dpi of a given display.

  • displayId: The id of the display

setDensity(displayId)

Sets the dpi of a given display. This can be useful for scaling app content.

  • displayId: The id of the display

startActivity(displayId, pkg, forceStart)

Starts an activity on a given display. If forceStart is set to true

  • displayId: The id of the display
  • pkg: The package name of the app to start. Some apps may require you to include an intent as well.
  • forceStart: If true, the app is closed and reopened, which can help with stability. Set to true by default.

getTaskId(displayId, pkg)

Returns the task id of an app on a given display. Returns null if it couldn't be found.

  • displayId: The id of the display.
  • pkg: The package name of the app.

resizeTask(taskId, x1, y1, x2, y2)

Sets the position and size of an app window on external displays in desktop mode.

  • taskId: The task id of the app.
  • x1: The x coordinate to move the top left corner to.
  • y1: The y coordinate to move the top left corner to.
  • x2: The x coordinate to move the bottom right corner to.
  • y2: The y coordinate to move the bottom right corner to.

Example

You can find in example script in example/index.js. This script allows you to configure a few apps to be automatically launched and positioned in a configurable layout on the screen in desktop mode. You can also change the density option to set the dpi of the screen, which is helpful for scaling app content for smaller or larger screens.
