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 🙏

fetch-berlin-depth-contours

v0.2.1

Published

Fetch depth contour lines of Berlin bodies of water.

Readme

fetch-berlin-depth-contours

Fetch all tiles showing depth contour lines of Berlin bodies of water.

Warning: The tiles will be in the EPSG:3068 reference system.

Warning: This is a rather hacky WMS client. I should probably split this into focused modules and publish them on npm.

npm version ISC-licensed chat on gitter

Installing

npm install fetch-berlin-depth-contours

Usage

const download = require('fetch-berlin-depth-contours')

const dir = path.join(__dirname, 'out')
const saveTile = (tile, res) => {
	return res.buffer()
	.then(buf => {
		// write to disk here
	})
}

const onSuccess = (_, job) => {
	console.info('tile downloaded', job.title)
}
const onFailure = (err) => {
	console.error(err)
	process.exitCode = 1
}

download(saveTile, onSuccess, onFailure)
.catch((err) => {
	console.error(err)
	process.exit(1)
})

To save all tiles into a directory, you can use the saveToDir helper:

const path = require('path')
const saveToDir = require('fetch-berlin-depth-contours/save-to-dir')

const dir = path.join(__dirname, 'tiles')
const saveToFile = saveToDir(dir)

API

download(saveTile, onSuccess, onFailure, [opt])

download returns a Promise that rejects if something fails badly. Note that it does not reject if a single tile can't be fetched, instead it will call onFailure.

saveTile(tile, res) should store the tile somewhere, as fetch-berlin-depth-contours doesn't do this. tile is in the common format [x, y, zoom].res is a fetch Response object.

onSuccess(result, job) and onFailure(err) may report the progress.

opt is an optional object that overrides these defaults:

{
	zoom: 18,
	size: 500,
	concurrency: 4,
	bbox: null, // default: bbox that the WMS server provides
	layers: null // default: layer identified by lib/assert-capabilities
}

If provided, opt.bbox must be in the EPSG:4326 reference system a.k.a. WGS 84 and look like this:

{minLat: 1.23, minLon: 2.34, maxLat: 3.45, maxLon: 4.56}

If provided, opt.layers should be an array of layer IDs as strings.
