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 🙏

Installing

git clone 'https://github.com/vitalibarozzi/Flying-Tower' && cd Flying-Tower && make install

# or

npm install flying-tower && cd node_modules/flying-tower && make install

Usage

# verbose: [-v]
# version: [-V]
# debug  : [-d]
# help   : [-h]
# test   : [-t]

# lock  : [-l <path>]
# unlock: [-u <path>]
# key   : [-k <key>] // if ommited will prompt for the password
# output: [-o <path>] // if ommited $PWD will be used
# Lock a file/directory:

ft -l myfolder
# Unlock a locked tower file:

ft -u myfolder.ft
# Choose output path:

ft -l myfolder -o /media/xxx/myFlashDrive/
# Multiple targets

ft -l onefolder -l otherfolder -l idk # or ft -l "{onefolder,otherfolder,idk}"
# same for unlocking
ft -u onefolder.ft -u otherfolder.ft -u idk.ft # or ft -u "{onefolder,otherfolder,idk}.ft"
# Testing before using it in your precious files

ft -t # will lock and unlock some bogus files to see if everything is ok.

Getting Fancy

# Globbin and Brace Expansion:

ft -vk '123' -l "{onefolder,otherfolder,bin,idk}" # onefolder, otherfolder, bin, idk

ft -vk '123' -l "folder{1..3}" # folder1, folder2, folder3

ft -vk '123' -l "{folder{0..1},otherdir{A..B}}" # folder0, folder1, otherdirA, otherdirB

ft -vk '123' -l "*SATAN*" # mySATAN.txt, someOtherFileWithSATANInTheName.jpg

ft -vk '123' -l "*.txt" # anything.txt, otherthing.txt, zzz.txt

ft -vk '123' -l "d*" # dir1, dirXXX, directions.txt

ft -vk '123' -l "./**/*.jpg" # lock all .jpg files recursively from the current folder

ft -vk '123' -u "**/*.ft" # unlock all towers recursively from the current folder

ft -vk '123' -l "**/*" # set it loose to lock recursevly all files.

# Weird things to notice

# only braces and wild cards need double quotes, but you can quote everything if you want.

ft -vk '123' -l "*.{sh,txt}" # all files with .sh extension and .txt extension.

ft -vk '123' -l "f{A..B}.{txt,log}" # fA.txt, fA.log, fB.txt fB.log

ft -vk '123' -l . # lock current folder.

ft -vk '123' -l .. # lock parent folder.

ft -vk '123' -l ~ # lock home folder. (/home/user) !CAREFUL!

ft -vk '123' -l / # lock root. (Will not work, for safety)

ft -vk '123' -l "~/*" # lock all files/folders inside home folder. (individualy)

ft -vk '123' -l "*" # lock everything inside current folder. (individualy)

ft -vk '123' -u "*.ft" # unlock all towers in current folder.
