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

grunt-pkgcloud

Grunt task for deploying using pkgcloud

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-pkgcloud --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-pkgcloud');

The "pkgcloud" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named pkgcloud to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  pkgcloud: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
});

Options

options.createContainer

Type: Boolean Default value: true

If the specified dest container does not exists, should one be created?

options.metadata

Type: Object Default value: {}

Extra metadata to apply to the uploaded files.

options.client

Type: Object Default value: undefined

The client definition for a pkgcloud storage provider.

Usage Examples

Default Options

Deploy files to your OpenStack environment in the test container using the default settings. The files section currently only has support Grunt's "Files Array" mapping format, and the cwd option has to be specified.

grunt.initConfig({
  pkgcloud: {
    staging: {
      options: {
        client: {
          authUrl: 'https://identity.stack.cloudvps.com',
          username: 'foo',
          password: 'bar',
          provider: 'openstack',
          tenantId: 'moo'
        }
      },
      files: [{
        cwd: 'dist',
        src: '**',
        dest: 'test'
      }]
    }
  }
});

Contributing

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
