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 🙏

is-positive-boolean

v13.0.0

Published

Determines if a boolean is positive or negative. Throws an error and suggests using is-positive-number, is-positive-integer or is-positive-int if type is not boolean. New readable and efficient version has minified source code.

Readme

is-positive-boolean

Validate if a value is a positive boolean. Version 3 comes with some funky new features:

npm version

  • Lodash support. Because it isn't an NPM module without a lodash dependency... Right?
  • Funky new styled error message (see below)
  • Optional translation using google translate (Returns a promise if used. Dive source to find out how)
  • Completely rebuilt in Typescript, which is minified for readability.

Funky New Styled Error Message

  • First we split the string into characters and call map on the resulting array passing a function that does the following:
  • The function picks 3 random (and unique) methods from the colors module, using the excellent pick-some module.
  • Then we use colors's signature super nifty way, which extends string.prototype to call the first function picked on each character

 

Install

npm install --save is-positive-boolean

Usage

var isPositiveBoolean = require('is-positive-boolean');

// Test cases
// Valid positive values
isPositiveBoolean(true);                           // true

//Valid negative values
isPositiveBoolean(false);                          // false
