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 🙏

Express Git Puller

Module to act as an express endpoint for receiving Github webhooks & running commands, e.g. for automatically pulling code from Git after pushing & restarting a pm2 app

Prerequisites

  • The process directory should have git initalized
  • The git remote should also be configured
  • Also make sure to add any files you don't want to be overwritten to the .gitignore
Install
npm install --save express-git-puller
Basic Server Example
// Hello World Example from https://expressjs.com/en/starter/hello-world.html
const express = require('express')
const bodyParser = require('body-parser')
const {Puller} = require('express-git-puller');
const app = express()
const port = 3000

app.use(bodyParser.json()) // Required for validating the request

// Register the puller middleware at the specified endpoint
const puller = new Puller({
    events: ["push"], // Events to listen for (optional, since you can select them on Github as well - set to * to handle all events)
    secret: "SuperSecretSecret", // Set this to verify the request against the secret provided to github
    vars: {
        appName: "ExampleApp"
    }
});
app.use("/_my_git_endpoint", puller.middleware);

app.get('/', (req, res) => res.send('Hello World!'))

app.listen(port, () => console.log(`Example app listening at http://localhost:${ port }`))
Github Webhook Example

  • Obviously use your project's public domain
  • Set Content type to application/json
  • (optional) Set a secret and add it to the puller config
  • (optional) Choose which events should be sent to the webhook - also make sure to change the puller config respectively
