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 🙏

v0.2.0

Published

add more feature to node require

Readme

esrequire

This module extend node.js original require method to enable you require multiple module in one single call. Use with es6 destructuring you can require modules in a very concise way, utilize features like es6 module.

Install

    $ npm install esrequire --save

Require it in you apps first line

    require('esrequire');

    // same as native node require
    require('express');  
    
    // pass multi module name like this, result will be an object 
    var modulesObject = require('express co koa');
    
    // pass an module name array, result is an array of module in the same order
    var modulesArray = require(['express', 'co', 'koa']);

This seems not a big deal, but if you use it with ES6 desctructuring, it will be very awesome

    // require multiple module in one line
    let {express, co, koa} = require('express co koa');
    let [express, co, koa] = require(['express', 'co', 'koa']);

    // rename module 
    let {'body-parser': bodyParser} = require('body-parser');
    let [bodyParser] = require(['body-parser']);

    // only require what you need
    let {Router} = require('express');

Note: to learn destructuring check here

This module also has export an object esRequire to global, it provide some handy require method, for example folder require

    // require all the files in one folder.
    let {module1, module2, module3} = esRequire.folder('./test', __dirname);
