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 🙏

gencls

v2.0.3

Published

A Simple generator class.

Readme

#gencls

A Simple generator class to provide powerful mechanism to create a class like functionality, by providing "private and public" function's like capabilty.

Installation


npm install gencls

Testing

**Check any syntactical errors**

	```
	npm run lint
	```
**Fix any syntactical errors**

	```
	npm run lint-fix
	```
**Check for code based errros**

	```
	npm run test
	```

Quick start

All you need to do is to initialize it, as you would for any class with an object as a parameter containing all the data (variables and functions):

/*
*
* GenCls(object)
* object: Functions having a preceding underscore ( '_fun' ) is treated 
*	as a private functon which can not be accesed from outside world
*	and all other functions can be accessed publicly.
*
*/

const GenCls = require('gencls');

const MyClass = GenCls({
	
	/*
	* This can act like a private function, 
	* which you can call from other functions. 
	*/
	_private: function(){
		console.log('I\'m inside a private function!');
	},
	
	/*
	* It will act as a public function. 
	*/
	public: function(){ 
		console.log('this is a public function!');
		this._private();
	},
});

MyClass.public();

/*
*	Outputs:
*		this is a public function!
*		I'm inside a private function!
*/

Use Case

One can create a class like functionality using this package, but best
suited, when you need to create a class dynamically or on the fly.

Downside

Although gencls mimick a class perfectly, but under the hood it uses
proxy functions to achive that, which might look like a performance
overhead in some situations but not in others. So use it as you 
please :)
