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 🙏

Readme

app-tester

App tester is an app built with all plugins known to vigour which presents the user with an input box allowing him to be redirected wherever. It's intended use is to help with app development.

Installation

via hockeyapp

Usage

  • Install the app on your device
  • Enter a URL (starting with http(s)://) in the input box
  • Tap the button
  • Get redirected to that URL
  • The app downloaded from that URL can expect the latest versions of all vigour plugins to be available.

Debugging

Debugging requires the device to be plugged into your computer. Simulators and emulators should also work the same way.

Android

  • Open Google Chrome
  • Navigate to chrome://inspect
  • The page opened in app-tester should be listed here, click on it to open it in the dev tools
  • To get the device (native) logs, use the Android Debugging Bridge (adb): adb logcat (more info)

iOS

  • Open Safari
  • In the develop menu, find the device running the app-tester. In that submenu, you should find the page currently loaded.
  • Click on it to open it in the Safari dev tools
  • TODO find out how to get access to device (native) logs

Maintenance

When the native code for a plugin changes, a new version of the app-tester has to be built and published to hockeyapp.

Building

Building is as easy as npm run android or npm run ios. Of course you will need to have the tools for these platforms installed:

Android

  • Android SDKs
  • Android debugging bridge (adb)
  • The ANDROID_HOME environment variable must point to the location of the Android SDK installation. In my case, I have:
$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
/Users/shawn/android-sdks/

iOS

  • Xcode
  • Xcode command line tools

Publishing to hockeyapp

To publish an app to hockey, you will of course need the credentials to the hockey account, which you can find here

Android

Building for Android creates a .apk file. Simply upload this file to hockeyapp to allow others to install it.

iOS

Building for iOS creates an xcode project and workspace. If you open the workspace in xcode, you can then archive the project and export it as a .ipa file which can be uploaded to hockey. The archiving and exporting parts require that you have some certificates and provisioning profiles in your keychain. Make sure you make a development build, otherwise the app-tester will lose it's debugging capabilities.
