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 🙏

Serve HAR files from standalone server

harviewer-screenshot --har http://localhost:8080/hars/myhar.har --hv-page-idx 4 --hv-width 1024

The HAR URL must point to a server supporting CORS. http-server can be used to serve local files with CORS. For example:

npm install -g http-server
cd FOLDER_CONTAINING_HARS
http-server --cors

Serve HAR files using in-built server

If the --har argument is a valid file path, a local HTTP server is started to serve this file to HAR Viewer. E.g.:

harviewer-screenshot --har local-file.har

will start a HTTP server (on a random available port) and output something like the following:

Started local server on port 3933
Creating page
Opening http://gitgrimbo.github.io/harviewer/master/?har=http://localhost:3933/c:/path/to/local-file.har

Serve HAR file from stdin

E.g. (on Windows):

type x.har | harviewer-screenshot

As library

const screenshot = require("./lib/screenshot");

const opts = {
  hvUrl: "http://gitgrimbo.github.io/harviewer/master/?har=http://localhost:8080/my-har.har",
  hvPageIdx: 0,
  hvWidth: 1280,
  hvHeight: 1024,
  dest: "harviewer.png"
};

screenshot.screenshot(opts);

Development

Linting

npm run lint

TODO

  • Customisation
    • Timeouts.
    • Remove tabs/button/extraneous chrome.
    • Custom pre-processing of HARs
      • Filter har.log.pages (E.g. if HAR has several pages but you're only interested in one/some).
