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 🙏

AoC TIMER

What is it?

AoC timer measures your Advent of Code solutions time in relative units, so you can compare your code performance with others, independent of your machine specs.

The timer is not perfect in replicating the same results on different machines, but the results are precise enough to make it a fun tool.

It also provides a score and shows you the level of your optimizations, making performance tweaks more gratifying.

Example output

    +--- AoC 2020 Day 18 - AOC TIMER --------------------+

You can add it to your README file or post it in the solution megathread on AoC subreddit.

Installation

Via NPM

It is the recommended way if you have Node.js and NPM already installed (or you are willing to do it).

Requires Node 14LTS or higher.

Global installation:

npm i aoctimer -g

Local installation (as a dev tool for your project):

npm i aoctimer -D

Via a single binary

If you prefer a single binary file (Node.js included), you can download it for the most popular platforms:

After downloading, extract the ZIP file and place the file in your executable directory, or set up a PATH to point to the aoctimer executable.

You can also use it locally, invoking it by pointing to it's location, for example:

~/home/utils/aoctimer

C:\User\me\tools\aoctimer.exe

Preparing your code

AoC TIMER is language independent and relies on a simple protocol - in your code write to the stdout line that contains following info (in order):

  • the word "total"
  • the time as number
  • the unit as one of (optional, ms as default):
    • s (seconds)
    • ms (milliseconds)
    • us (microseconds)
    • ns (nanoseconds)

Additional characters and spaces are allowed, the program is not case-sensitive.

Examples:

total 12.01ms

Total: 100 ns

TOTAL TIME - 5s

Total 12345

My solution has total time of 123.100 us.

Example (JS):

import { read } from "../../utils/index"

const part1 = (input) => {
  // solution...
  return result
}

const part2 = (input) => {
  // solution...
  return result
}

const input = read()

const t0 = process.hrtime.bigint()
const result1 = part1(input)
const result2 = part2(input)
const t1 = process.hrtime.bigint()

const total = Number(t1 - t0) / 1e6

console.log("Solution to part 1:", result1)
console.log("Solution to part 2:", result2)

console.log(`Total time: ${total}ms`) // <- Line for AoC timer to parse

Usage

In your project folder run:

aoctimer init

It will create the local config and execute the benchmark.

Execute your code (if you skip the day flag, it will try to autocomplete the day by scanning your command):

aoctimer --day <day_number> <your_command>

aoctimer -d <day_number> <your_command>

aoctimer <your_command>

# Examples:

  aoctimer node day01/index.js

  aoctimer python day5.py

  aoctimer day25.exe

  aoctimer go run aoc/day01/solution.go

  aoctimer -d 13 java my_solution

  aoctimer --day 15 lua solution.lua

Show the summary:

aoctimer summary

You can save the output of the commands to the file, using standard command-line piping (Bash / zsh / fish / PowerShell):

aoctimer summary > MY_FILE.txt

CLI

Commands:
  init [language] [year]        Calibrate and create local config
  summary                       Display the summary
  [-d, --day <day>] <command>   Run the timer for your command
  --help, -h                    Show help page
  --version, -v                 Show version
