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 🙏

Homebridge RC433 Etekcity Plugin

This Homebridge plugin enables you to control 433mhz Etekcity switchs by a Raspberry Pi.

The plugin is based on the idea of FWeinb's rcswitch plugin. The Etekcity switches require a pulse length beside its controlling code given, therefore a basic rc433mhz implementation does not work.

Setup

  1. Wire a 433Mhz RF transmitter and receiver kit to your Raspberry Pi. You can find several instructions on the web (e.g. (German) Click here).

  1. Use wiring-pi and its rf sniffer to record the codes for your switches by launching the programm on your Raspberry Pi and controlling the switches by the remote control. Be aware of the fact that there are several implementations of the 433mhz protocol. The Etekcity switches require those which handle the pulse lenght.

  2. Follow the intstructions to install Homebridge on your Raspberry Pi

  3. Install this plugin

npm i -g homebridge-rc433-etekcity
  1. Rename the sample-config.json to config.json and integrate your switches in the accessories array. The pins of the Raspberry Pi require root rights to control them. Therefore you have to save your config file not in your users directory. Put it under /root/.homebridge/config.json. If you are already running homekit with other apps integrate the accessories switches into your config.json and move your config file to the path above.

  2. If you want to start homebrige as a service atomaticlly when the Raspberry is turned on copy over the file homebridge to /etc/init.d/ on your Raspberry.
