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 🙏

A queue system for fetch requests

Readme

fetch-queue

A simple queue system for fetch requests

See https://github.com/jkramp/fetch-queue for complete documentation.

TL;DR?

  1. Import and use just as you would with fetch
  2. Profit!

NOTE: This assumes fetch is globally available

Yet another queue tool?

There are a lot of queuing tools out there. This one is specific to fetch and built to be a drop in replacement for fetch.

Basic Usage

Import and call in place of fetch. This can be called in multiple parts of an application or in a batch using Promise.all or Promise.allSettled

    import fetchQueue from 'fetch-queue'

    Promise.allSettled([
        fetchQueue('https://example.com/endpoint1',{
                method: 'POST',
                body: JSON.stringify({test:123})
            }).then(resp=>resp.json()),
        fetchQueue('https://example.com/endpoint2',{
                method: 'POST',
                body: JSON.stringify({test:123})
            }).then(resp=>resp.json()),
        fetchQueue('https://example.com/endpoint3',{
                method: 'POST',
                body: JSON.stringify({test:123})
            }).then(resp=>resp.json())
    ]
    .then(resp=>{
        console.log('DONE', resp)
    }).catch(error=>{
        console.log(error)
    })

Advanced Usage


    import {
        debugQueue,
        createQueue,
        fetchQueue,
        checkQueue,
        killQueue,
        destroyQueue,
     } from 'fetch-queue'

    // enable debugging to the console
    debugQueue()

    // create a custom queue
    createQueue('mySpecialQueue', {
        concurrent: 3, // how many fetch requests the queue will process at any given time
        retries: 3,  // how many retries will occur on a failed request
        retryDelay: 10, // how many seconds between retries (approx)
        fetchOptions: {
            headers: {
                Authorization: 'bearer 123456'
            }
        }, // preset fetch options to be included with each request
        baseUrl: 'https://example.com/', // prefix urls with this string
        concurrent: 3,
        retryOn: [408, 409, 418, 425, 429, '5xx'] // http response codes that the queue should retry
    })

    // add item to a custom queue
    fetchQueue('endpoint1',{
            method: 'POST',
            body: JSON.stringify({test:123})
        }, 'mySpecialQueue')
        .then(resp=>resp.json()) 
        .then(resp=>{
            console.log('DONE', resp)
        }).catch(error=>{
            console.log(error)
        })

    // check the status of a queue
    let result = checkQueue('mySpecialQueue')

    // kill a queue 
    killQueue('mySpecialQueue').then(()=>{
        console.log('Queue is dead')
    })

    destroyQueue('mySpecialQueue').then(()=>{
        console.log('Queue no longer exists')
    })
