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

gitignorer

Build Status codecov

Creates .gitignore for you with your very own profiles.

No more copy and pasting people's .gitignore. Start building your profiles!

Abstract

gitignorer has only two commands, yet they are very convenient:

  1. gitignore init [profile]
  2. gitignore profiles

Installation

npm install -g gitignorer

Usage

gitignore init [profile]

gitignore init creates .gitignore with the given profile.

# create .gitignore with "default" profile or empty profile
> gitignore init

# create .gitignore with "node" profile
> gitignore init node

gitignore profiles

gitignore profiles lists the profiles exported by ~/.gitignore.profiles.js.

> gitignore profiles

 default
  |- *.sw*
  |- .DS_Store

 node
  |- *.sw*
  |- .DS_Store
  |- node_modules
  |- npm-debug.log*

You can create a `.gitignore` using `gitignore init [profile]`

gitignore -h

gitignore help:

> gitignore -h

  Usage: gitignorer [options] [command]


  Options:

    -V, --version  output the version number
    -h, --help     output usage information


  Commands:

    init [options] [profile]  Create .gitignore at current directory
    profiles                  List all profiles and their corresponding files

subcommands help:

> gitignore init --help

  Usage: init [options] [profile]

  Create .gitignore at current directory


  Options:

    -f, --force  overwrite the existing .gitignore
    -h, --help   output usage information

Profiles (~/.gitignore.profiles.js)

gitignorer looks into ~/.gitignore.profiles.js which should export profiles.

A simple example that defines the default profile:

module.exports = {
  default: ['*.sw*', '.DS_Store']
};

A more complicated example:

const common = [
  '*.sw*',
  '.DS_Store'
];

const node = [
  'node_modules',
];

const java = [
  'url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gitignore/master/Java.gitignore',
  '.object2'
];

module.exports = {
  default: common,
  node: [...common, ...node],
  java: [...common, ...java],
  awesome: [...common, ...node, ...java],
};

Note that you could attach an url with any gitignore template. A very nice repository provides loads of templates available: github/gitignore.

Urls entry should start with "url: ".
