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 🙏

eCmd

Easier way to do commands in cmd through Node.js

I created this npm with the intention of facilitating the execution of commands in the CMD that need many parameters and that need "interaction with the user". Ex: commands that ask passwords or permission to perform some action...

Installation

OS X & Linux & Windows:

npm install ecmd --save

Usage example

Expected params:

var cli = require('ecmd')

var Cli = new cli()                                                                     //DEBUG HERE 
Cli.execute("command", ['param1','param2'],[['line','user answer'],['line','user answer']], true ).then(()=>{
    console.log("Succes Callback");
}).catch(()=>{
    console.log("Error Callback")
})

command is the command expected to be done. Ex: "tree" in windows

param is an array of are the parameters that goes with the command. Can be 0 or more parameters

line is the text in the line that is asking for user interaction. Ex: "name:"

user answer is the user interaction expected for the line that is asking for user interaction. Ex: "Bruno"

The last array accept 0 or more arrays of "line" and 'user answer'

The debug option will help you dicover what is the content of a line in the CMD. In the debug option you should pass true to enable it or leave it blank to turn it off.

Use the callback to know when the command is completed with success or error and execute some code...

Simple command without Debug

var cli = require('ecmd')

var Cli = new cli()
Cli.execute("tree").then(()=>{ //DEBUG DISABLED
    console.log("Command finished");
}).catch(()=>{
    console.log("Command not executed")
})

Simple command with Debug

var cli = require('ecmd')

var Cli = new cli()
Cli.execute("tree", null,null,true).then(()=>{ //DEBUG ENABLED
    console.log("Command finished");
}).catch(()=>{
    console.log("Command not executed")
})

Command with params

var cli = require('ecmd')

var Cli = new cli()
Cli.execute("mkdir",['Bruno']).then(()=>{
    console.log("Command finished");
}).catch(()=>{
    console.log("Command not executed")
})

Command with params and User Interaction

var cli = require('ecmd')

var Cli = new cli()
Cli.execute("cf",['login'],[['Email> ',''],['Password> ','']]).then(()=>{
    console.log("Command finished");
}).catch(()=>{
    console.log("Command not executed")
})
