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 🙏

git-velocity

npm Travis branch

Animated gif showing example usage

git-velocity is a CLI tool used to calculate commit velocity over time. When invoked, the tool reads your current directory (looking for package.json) and attempts to "guess" reasonable defaults for the repository you're wanting to analyze, accepting user input for overrides. Once configured, a dashboard is displayed (courtesy of blessed-contrib) with useful metrics regarding your repository's commit velocity.

Install

npm install -g git-velocity

Usage

Navigate to the root directory of the repo you wish to analyze and run the following:

git-velocity

Currently, the following tiles are displayed on the dashboard:

INFO

Simple markdown-supported text area, introducing you to the dashboard, listing some basic stats on your repository and details what possible interactions are available.

LOG

"Server-style" rolling log of latest commits.

MULTI-LINE GRAPH

A layered line graph, comparing previous vs current commits. Length of time compared depends on how the dashboard was configured when the tool was invoked.

GETTING STARTED

After cloning and installing dependencies via npm install, you're basically all set and ready to go. The solution was built using many new language features that were not implemented during the time, and as such transpilation (via Babel) is required.

There are several npm scripts that are configured for development, listed below:

  • build - Transpiles source files and generates distributables in /dist.
  • debug - Executes build, then runs the distributed application files with the internal debugger listening on port 12345. There is a VS Code launch.json file configured for debugging and runs this command internally.
  • start - Runs the distributed application.
