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 🙏

Pre-requisities

Node-Gyp's NAN package dependency causes the node-hashtable dependency within this package to remain locked in <v12 of Node, I recommend targeting v10.22.1.

Setup

After running npm i, you'll need to supply credentials for a BC store and MongoDB server. This app assumes usage of dotenv and a .env file or similar. An example of what this might look like:

MONGO=mongodb+srv://user:pass@domain/database
CLIENT=BC CLIENT ID
TOKEN=BC TOKEN
SECRET=BC SECRET
HASH=BC HASH
PORT=3333

You should be able to run node index.js successfully, but when reaching the localhost:PORT your console might show errors when trying to access the database.

Errors

I started running into an error which caused me to enable a dev dependency for v4.5.0 of the Handlebars NPM package, see https://handlebarsjs.com/api-reference/runtime-options.html#options-to-control-prototype-access for details. For this to work as expected, you need to install the app with developer dependencies, this can be done with the command npm i -D.

Developer Branch

If you're on the dev branch, installing devDependencies also installs the node-hashtable and nan Node packages to enable use of variants in future iterations.
