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

Dynder

Simple server side renderer

Dynder is a basic server side renderer to serve custom HTML pages on each request based on variables set in html.

Installation

npm i dynder

Development

Require into your file:

const {dynder} = require('dynder');

Generate HTML :

const htmlPage = dynder({
    filePath:'', // absolute path to the file
    mapping:{}, // variables to change in html
    serverFromMemory:true // boolean value to load file in memory & serve
})

Examples

Project Structure :

  • index.html
  • server.js
  • package.json

HTML :

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>%exampleHeading%</h1>
    <p>%examplePara%</p>
    <img src="%exampleImage%" alt="">
    %exampleDiv%
</body>
</html>

Server.js :

const path = require("path");

// Express HTTP Server
const express = require("express");
const app = express();

// Load Dynder
const { dynder } = require("dynder");

// Example Route
app.get("/", (req, res) => {
  // Date
  const date = new Date().toLocaleString();

  // dynder data
  const filePath = path.resolve(__dirname, "./index.html");
  const mapping = {
    exampleHeading: "This is heading from server",
    examplePara: "I am para injected by server",
    exampleImage:
      "https://i.picsum.photos/id/237/536/354.jpg?hmac=i0yVXW1ORpyCZpQ-CknuyV-jbtU7_x9EBQVhvT5aRr0",
    exampleDiv: `<div><h2>Date : ${date}</h2></div>`,
  };
  const serveFromMemory = true;

  // Call dynder
  const customHTML = dynder({ filePath, mapping, serveFromMemory });

  // Set content-type header
  res.setHeader("content-type", "text/html");

  // Send data
  res.send(customHTML).end();
});

app.listen(3000, () => console.log("Running on 3000"));

Result :

  • imgage
