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 🙏

Readme

gibber.server

This is the server component for Gibber. To install in Gibber:

  1. If you don't have node installed, install node: http://nodejs.org
  2. Install and run CouchDB: http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/install/
  3. cd into the top level of the main Gibber repo
  4. Run npm install gibber.server. This will install gibber.server in the node_modules directory of the Gibber repo.
  5. To create the initial gibber database, run: node node_modules/gibber.server/createDatabase.

The dependencies installed with gibber.server are highly version specific in many cases, so don't go updating any of these modules.

To run the server, go to the top level of the Gibber repo that you installed gibber.server into, and run the following:

cd node_modules/gibber.server

node . 8080

You can substitute a port of your choice for 8080 in the above line. Now, if everything turns out OK, you can open 127.0.0.1:8080 in a browser and Gibber will be running.

Note to self:ejs must be version 0.8.4... using ~0.8.4 will mess things up.
