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 🙏

MTPDB client for Node.js — MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis (KeyValue) operations

Readme

mtpdb

A unified Node.js client for MTPDB — supporting MySQL-compatible SQL, Redis-compatible KeyValue, and PostgreSQL-compatible operations.

Installation

npm install mtpdb

Documentation

Full API documentation for each client type is available in the docs directory:


Quick Start

1. MySQL Database

Uses the standard MySQL Wire Protocol (port 3306).

const mtpdb = require('mtpdb');

// Create MySQL connection
const connection = mtpdb.createConnection({
  host     : 'localhost',
  port     : 3306,
  user     : 'root',
  password : 'mtpdb_root',
  database : 'my_db'
});

connection.connect();

connection.query('SELECT 1 + 1 AS solution', function (error, results, fields) {
  if (error) throw error;
  console.log('The solution is: ', results[0].solution);
  connection.end();
});

2. Redis KeyValue Database

Uses Redis-compatible commands over a high-performance HTTP API (port 8765).

const mtpdb = require('mtpdb');

async function main() {
  const kv = mtpdb.createKeyValueClient({
    host     : 'localhost',
    port     : 8765,
    database : 'my_kv_db'
  });

  await kv.connect();

  await kv.set('name', 'Alice', { ex: 60 });
  const name = await kv.get('name');
  console.log(name); // 'Alice'
}

main().catch(console.error);

3. PostgreSQL Database

Uses the standard PostgreSQL Wire Protocol (port 5432).

const mtpdb = require('mtpdb');

// Create PostgreSQL connection pool
const pgClient = mtpdb.createPostgresClient({
  host     : 'localhost',
  port     : 5432,
  user     : 'postgres',
  password : '',
  database : 'postgres'
});

pgClient.connect((err) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  
  pgClient.query('SELECT $1::text as message', ['Hello World!'], (error, results) => {
    if (error) throw error;
    console.log(results[0].message); // 'Hello World!'
    pgClient.end();
  });
});

Telemetry

MTPDB includes optional, opt-in anonymous telemetry to help us understand usage patterns. It is disabled by default.

What is collected

When enabled, only the SQL command type (e.g. SELECT, INSERT) and the database name are sent. Raw queries, parameters, and results are never transmitted.

How to enable

  1. Set telemetry: true in your connection config:
const connection = mtpdb.createConnection({
  host: 'localhost',
  user: 'root',
  password: 'password',
  database: 'my_db',
  telemetry: true   // opt-in
});
  1. Set the MTPDB_WEBHOOK_SECRET environment variable (telemetry is silently skipped if this is not set):
export MTPDB_WEBHOOK_SECRET="your-secret-here"

Both conditions must be met for telemetry to activate. If either is missing, no data is sent.
