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 🙏

Create an ArrayBuffer instance from a Data URI string

This module accepts a "data" URI String of data, and returns an ArrayBuffer instance with the decoded data.

This module is intended to work on a large variety of JavaScript runtimes, including Node.js and web browsers.

Example

import { dataUriToBuffer } from 'data-uri-to-buffer';

// plain-text data is supported
let uri = 'data:,Hello%2C%20World!';
let parsed = dataUriToBuffer(uri);
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(parsed.buffer));
// 'Hello, World!'

// base64-encoded data is supported
uri = 'data:text/plain;base64,SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ%3D%3D';
parsed = dataUriToBuffer(uri);
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(parsed.buffer));
// 'Hello, World!'

API

export interface ParsedDataURI {
	type: string;
	typeFull: string;
	charset: string;
	buffer: ArrayBuffer;
}

dataUriToBuffer(uri: string | URL) → ParsedDataURI

The type property gets set to the main type portion of the "mediatype" portion of the "data" URI, or defaults to "text/plain" if not specified.

The typeFull property gets set to the entire "mediatype" portion of the "data" URI (including all parameters), or defaults to "text/plain;charset=US-ASCII" if not specified.

The charset property gets set to the Charset portion of the "mediatype" portion of the "data" URI, or defaults to "US-ASCII" if the entire type is not specified, or defaults to "" otherwise.

Note: If only the main type is specified but not the charset, e.g. "data:text/plain,abc", the charset is set to the empty string. The spec only defaults to US-ASCII as charset if the entire type is not specified.
