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 🙏

Watermark your text invisibly easily

Readme

lavamark.js

A library to watermark text - invisibly!

Wait what?

Yes! You can hide text inside text without your users noticing!

But why?

There are a couple use cases to this.

  • You generally want to hide text inside text
  • You want to know who has copied a text from your site
  • thats actually every actual use case I've found so far for this

How does it work?

lavamark.js uses invisible unicode characters to transform information. It puts it somewhere inside the given visible text. Incase users copy it, they will copy the watermark aswell, which makes you able to look it up.

First off, require it.

const lavamark = require("lavamark");
// or
import * as lavamark from "lavamark";

Now, you can use the lavamark variable and access its functions.

Making a watermarked string

This is really easy! No really, its easier than stealing candies from a child.

let visibleText = "This text will be displayed";
let hiddenText = "This text will be hidden inside the visible text";

lavamark.mark(visibleText, hiddenText); 
// -> returns watermarked text, which looks exactly like visibleText, but has the information of hiddenText

// Alternatively you can set an index, at which the information will be set
lavamark.mark(visibleText, hiddenText, 4);

Reading out a watermarked string

This is pretty much just as easy. All you need is a string instance of an watermarked text. You may just copy-paste watermarked text into the code.

Unfortunately for the sake of ASCII support in this readme file, I will have to strip unicodes in the following example. (It does work fine though!)

let watermarkedText = lavamark.mark("There totally isn't anything fishy going on with this string!", "that was a lie, i am very evil indeed");

lavamark.read(watermarkedText); // -> "that was a lie, i am very evil indeed"

Checking if a watermark exists

let str = lavamark.read(watermarkedText);

if(str === null)
    console.log("No watermark found!");
else
    console.log("Watermark found:", str);
