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 🙏

get-user-media-promise

Build Status npm-version bower-version

Light-weight Ponyfill/Polyfill for navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia (the newer newer Promise-based API). Wraps the older callback-based navigator.getUserMedia when necessary.

Behaves as a ponyfill (doesn't touch globals) when used via browserify/webpack/etc. or as a polyfill (sets globals) when included as a standalone library.

Less than 0.5kb after minification and gzipping (about 5% of the size of the other getUserMedia shim).

Note: this will only work in web browsers, and only fairly current ones at that.

Additionally, this library does not attempt to reformat constraints for cross-browser support, so if you need advanced audio/video constraints, the other library may be a better choice.

Installation:

npm

npm install --save get-user-media-promise

Bower

bower install --save get-user-media-promise

Standalone

Download the latest release from GitHub.

Usage:

  • With a bundler such as Require.js, Browserify, or WebPack: require() the module and it returns a getUserMedia() method that will always return a Promise or Promise-like object.
  • As a standalone library: when neither define() nor module are defined, the module will go into polyfill mode, setting navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia() if that method is not already defined or doing nothing if it is.

Then:

var getUserMedia = require('get-user-media-promise'); // or navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia when used standalone

getUserMedia({audio: true, video: true})
  .then(function(mediaStream) {
    console.log(mediaStream);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log('error');
  });

Check browser support ahead of time via the isSupported property:

console.log(getUserMedia.isSupported);
