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 🙏

e2e-verdaccio

v1.0.0

Published

Tests publishing with verdaccio and leaves it running for your use.

Readme

e2e-verdaccio

This is a script that you can use to test publishing via verdaccio. It will leave verdaccio running so you can use the server to test other aspects of your published package. When you're finished it will kill it.

Can't I just use verdaccio?

Yeah you could, but you'd need to spin up verdaccio, open up another terminal most likely, login to the verdaccio registry, and then you'd have to type out the local url to publish your package. And if you've already published that version of your package, you then have to unpublish and republish it.

This does all of that in one command.

Usage

Installation

If you're using pnpm or working across multiple devices you'll want to install this package locally, otherwise, globally installing it makes no difference.

pnpm install --dev e2e-verdaccio

# or

yarn add --dev e2e-verdaccio

Add it to your scripts

After installing the package you'll need to add it to your scripts for easy use.

{
  "scripts": {
    "test:publish": "e2e-verdaccio"
  }
}

Running it

Now to run it, simply run the test:publish script.

pnpm run test:publish

# or

yarn run test:publish
