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 🙏

Find the most suitable link station for a given device

Readme

link_station

Find the most suitable link station for a given device. This is done by properly calculating the power, and comparing it against the reach of the station.

To get the power of the signal from the device to the station the following formula is used:

distance = sqrt(deviceX - stationX ^ 2 + (deviceY - stationY ^ 2))
power = distance > reach, power  = 0; power = (reach - distance) ^ 2

If a correct power is find for the given device is found (power != 0 && distance != null), the text Best link station for point {deviceX},{deviceY} is {stationX}{stationY} with power {power}, otherwise No link station within the reach for point {deviceX},{deviceY}.

Usage

Arguments

  • <device> -> The device coordinates to find the best link station for. Are coordinates separated via coma. e.g. X,Y

If not device provided, a single device from the following options will be randomly picked: [0, 0] [100, 100] [15, 10] [18, 18]

e.g. link-station 1,2

Flags

  • stations - alias: -s -> The list of stations to use. Is constituted of three values separated by a comma, Y X R(Reach).

If not station provided, the following stations will be used instead:[0, 0, 10], [20, 20, 5], [10, 0, 12]

e.g. `link-station 1,2 -s 1,2,3 -s 4,5,6 -s 7,8,9
