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 🙏

Components

VideoPlayer

The main video player component with GPS and sensor data integration.

interface VideoPlayerProps {
  // Video source
  videoUrl: string | null;
  
  // Auto-parsing configuration
  enableMetadataParsing?: boolean;
  
  // GPS and sensor data (external)
  gpsPoints?: GpsPoint[] | null;
  sensorData?: IAccel[] | null;
  
  // Player configuration
  autoPlay?: boolean;
  showControls?: boolean;
  showMap?: boolean;
  speedUnit?: 'km/h' | 'mph';
  
  // Event callbacks
  onTimeUpdate?: (currentTime: number) => void;
  onDurationChange?: (duration: number) => void;
  onPlay?: () => void;
  onPause?: () => void;
  onError?: (error: string) => void;
  
  // Styling
  className?: string;
}

Example:

<VideoPlayer
  videoUrl="https://example.com/video.mp4"
  enableMetadataParsing={true}
  autoPlay={true}
  showMap={true}
  speedUnit="km/h"
  onTimeUpdate={(time) => console.log('Current time:', time)}
  onError={(error) => console.error('Video error:', error)}
/>

MapComponent

Displays GPS tracking data on an interactive map.

interface MapComponentProps {
  gpsPoints?: GpsPoint[];
  currentTime?: number;
  sensorData?: IAccel[];
  speedUnit?: 'km/h' | 'mph';
  mapStyle?: 'streets' | 'satellite' | 'outdoors' | 'light' | 'dark';
  height?: string;
  className?: string;
}

Example:

<MapComponent
  gpsPoints={gpsData}
  currentTime={30}
  speedUnit="mph"
  mapStyle="satellite"
  height="300px"
/>

EventComponent

Visualizes G-sensor acceleration data.

interface EventComponentProps {
  sensorData?: IAccel[];
  currentTime?: number;
  videoDuration?: number;
  height?: string;
  className?: string;
}

Example:

<EventComponent
  sensorData={accelerationData}
  currentTime={30}
  videoDuration={120}
  height="100px"
/>

Utilities

GPS Data Parsing

import { parseGpsData, GpsParsingStatus } from 'fleeta-video-player';

const result = parseGpsData(base64GpsData);

if (result.status === GpsParsingStatus.SUCCESS) {
  console.log('GPS points:', result.points);
}

Sensor Data Parsing

import { parseSensorData, SensorParsingStatus } from 'fleeta-video-player';

const result = parseSensorData(base64SensorData);

if (result.status === SensorParsingStatus.SUCCESS) {
  console.log('Sensor data:', result.points);
}

MP4 Metadata Extraction

import { fetchAndParseMP4 } from 'fleeta-video-player';

const metadata = await fetchAndParseMP4('https://example.com/video.mp4');

console.log('GPS data:', metadata.gps);
console.log('Sensor data:', metadata.sensor);
console.log('Thumbnail:', metadata.thumbnail);

🎨 Styling

FleetA Video Player uses Tailwind CSS classes. You can:

  1. Use default styles - Include the CSS bundle
  2. Custom styling - Override with your own CSS
  3. Tailwind integration - Use Tailwind classes directly
// Include default styles
import 'fleeta-video-player/dist/style.css';

// Custom styling
<VideoPlayer 
  className="my-custom-player border-2 border-blue-500"
  videoUrl={url}
/>

🌳 Tree Shaking

Import only what you need to reduce bundle size:

// Import specific components
import { VideoPlayer } from 'fleeta-video-player';

// Import specific utilities
import { parseGpsData } from 'fleeta-video-player';

// Import only types (zero runtime cost)
import type { VideoPlayerProps } from 'fleeta-video-player';

Bundle size savings:

  • VideoPlayer only: ~40% smaller
  • GPS parsing only: ~80% smaller
  • Utilities only: ~90% smaller
  • Types only: 100% smaller (no runtime cost)

🔧 Configuration
