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 🙏

What It Is

DePendancy ANalyzer, an SQLite-based database of your projects' npm dependency trees

Notes

  • DB file created and re-used by default
  • most inserts are upserts / on conflict do nothing, so faster on updates
  • unclear how to deal with deletions though

To Do

  • [–] implement

  • [–] document

  • [–] add property dba to Dpan::constructor() to pass configuration directly to ICQL/DBA

  • [–] fetch data from https://registry.npmjs.cf/$pkg_name

  • [–] provide info about vulnerabilities

    • [–] from GitHub
    • [–] from npm

  • [–] package manager used (npm/pnpm/yarn...)

  • [–] circular dependencies

  • [–] try to handle spurious changes caused by Unicode Normalization on some file systems (e.g. APFS); case in point is dbay-rustybuzz which has some filenames with ä; originally entered as single codepoint, the ä is turned into a sequence of base letter plus combining diacritic. This change is not reported by git status, but git-utils repo.getStatus() returns an object like this:

    { 'fonts/schäffel.ch/1455_gutenberg_b42.otf': 128,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/1458_gutenberg_b36.otf': 128,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/2002_horatius.otf': 128,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/LICENSE.txt': 128,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/1455_gutenberg_b42.otf': 512,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/1458_gutenberg_b36.otf': 512,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/2002_horatius.otf': 512,
  'fonts/schäffel.ch/LICENSE.txt': 512 }

    where the files in question both have a deleted and a new marker. One should suspect this being a flaw in either git or in git-utils; also check how [nodegit][https://github.com/nodegit/nodegit] deals with this situation.
