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 🙏

Build Status

github-archive is a simple tool that backs up every repository and branch for a specified user.

You will never be missing again your Dublin Bus ride! This web application shows the due time for your next ride a warns you when time is running out. The backend will keep an eye for you at the expected times at your preferred stop. Any update will be instantly pushed to your screen!

Use

Run github-archive followed by the auth token of the user and the account name (or organizational account name).

For your convenience you can create a specific backup user (say BackupAgent) who is allowed to browse any repository you want to back up.

To get an auth token for this user, logs into its GitHub account, go into Settings, Personal access tokens, then Generate new token. Please store your token safely.

Example

github-archive 5a1a2393ca99685410fcd71e6e915232cb4fe21a YourOrganizationName

Everything will be backed up under the data folder.

Why backup a GitHub repository

In case something happens to GitHub. More generally because keeping your data in the cloud and relying on the cloud to back it up is foolish.
