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 🙏

PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite3 storage for BackboneORM.

BackboneSQL provides an interface for BackboneORM models to persist to SQL databases.

Please checkout the website for examples, documentation, and community!

Schema definition

Fields are specified in the models schema property. Each (non-relation) field corresponds to a database column.

Each field must have a type and may be provided with the additional options.

An auto-incrementing field named id is automatically created as the primary key for each model.

To supply options the field descriptor is passed as an array, with the first item being the field type and a settings object as the second.

Available types

All types supported by Knex are available. Add column specific options along with the settings object for the field. The first letter of the type name is optionally capitalized, while the remainder must be camelCase.

Common field options

These options may be applied to any field. Note that column options are currently only applied when the columns are created.

  • nullable: Defaults to true. Set to false to throw an error on null values.
  • indexed: Defaults to false. Set to true to create an index on the column.
  • unique: Defaults to false. Set to true to create a unique constraint on the column.
CoffeeScript schema example
SQLSync = require('fl-backbone-sql').sync

class Project extends Backbone.Model

  # Database connection and table name are specified with the urlRoot
  urlRoot: 'postgres://username:password@localhost:27017/my_database/projects'

  # Schema defines the fields for the model's table
  schema:
    created_at: 'DateTime'
    type: ['Integer', nullable: false]
    name: ['String', unique: true, indexed: true]

  # Kick it off by setting the model's sync to an SQLSync
  sync: SQLSync(Project)
JavaScript schema example
var SQLSync = require('fl-backbone-sql').sync;

var Project = Backbone.Model.extend({

  // Database connection and table name are specified with the urlRoot
  urlRoot: 'postgres://username:password@localhost:27017/projects',

  // Schema defines the fields for the model's table
  schema: {
    created_at: 'DateTime',
    type: ['Integer', {nullable: false}],
    name: ['String', {unique: true, indexed: true}]
  }
});

// Kick it off by setting the model's sync to an SQLSync
Project.prototype.sync = SQLSync(Project);
