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 🙏

bm2

v1.1.1

Published

[DEPRECATED] BM2 is deprecated in favor of pboss (https://github.com/Procboss/pboss). This package is a backwards-compatible wrapper around pboss.

Readme

⚡ BM2 (Deprecated) — Migrated to ProcBoss (pboss)

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: BM2 is deprecated in favor of ProcBoss (pboss).

BM2 has been renamed and evolved into ProcBoss (pboss). All active development, bug fixes, features, and updates have moved to the new repository and package:

This package (bm2) now serves as a backwards-compatible wrapper that automatically forwards all CLI commands and programmatic API calls to pboss.


🚀 Migration Guide

Please update your installations and dependencies to use pboss directly:

1. Global CLI Migration

Uninstall bm2 and install pboss:

# Bun
bun remove -g bm2
bun add -g pboss

# npm
npm uninstall -g bm2
npm install -g pboss

Run commands using pboss:

# Before:
bm2 start server.ts --name api

# Now:
pboss start server.ts --name api

2. Project Dependency Migration

# Bun
bun remove bm2
bun add pboss

# npm / pnpm / yarn
npm uninstall bm2
npm install pboss

3. Programmatic API Migration

Update your imports:

// Before:
import BM2, { list, start } from "bm2";
import type { StartOptions } from "bm2/types";

// Now:
import PBoss, { list, start } from "pboss";
import type { StartOptions } from "pboss/types";

const pboss = new PBoss();
await pboss.connect();
await pboss.start({ script: "./server.ts", name: "my-api" });

📦 Compatibility Wrapper Details

If your existing environment still invokes bm2, this package (bm2@>=1.1.0) will:

  • Transparently execute pboss CLI with all provided arguments.
  • Pass through stdin, stdout, stderr, and exit codes.
  • Forward signals (SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGHUP).
  • Re-export all classes, methods, and TypeScript types from pboss.
  • Emit a deprecation notice to notify developers to complete the migration.
