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 🙏

Readme

nginx-apache-site

nginx-apache-site is a merged replacement for create-apache-site and create-nginx-site.

It creates:

  • Website directory and starter static files in /var/www/<domain>/public_html
  • Apache or Nginx virtual host config
  • Optional Certbot SSL certificate

The package also ships compatibility wrappers:

  • create-apache-site
  • create-nginx-site

Install

npm install -g nginx-apache-site

Usage

Unified command:

nginx-apache-site --domain example.com --server nginx
nginx-apache-site --domain example.com --server apache
nginx-apache-site --domain example.com --server auto
nginx-apache-site --domain example.com

If --server is omitted, the CLI prompts on interactive terminals with default auto. In non-interactive runs, it defaults to auto directly.

Compatibility wrappers:

create-apache-site --domain example.com
create-nginx-site --domain example.com

SSL options

  • --ssl always run Certbot
  • --no-ssl skip Certbot
  • no SSL flag: interactive prompt when running in a terminal

Extra Certbot controls:

Common examples

# Nginx with SSL and Certbot email
nginx-apache-site -d example.com -s nginx --ssl --certbot-email [email protected]

# Apache without SSL
nginx-apache-site -d example.com -s apache --no-ssl

# Preview actions only
nginx-apache-site -d example.com -s nginx --ssl --dry-run

Requirements

  • Ubuntu/Debian-style Apache or Nginx layout
  • Root privileges (sudo) for non-dry-run mode
  • Certbot plugin for your server type if using SSL

Development tests

npm test
npm run test:linux

npm test runs local shell tests with mocked system commands, so it does not modify your host web server setup.

npm run test:linux adds Linux-specific smoke checks. CI runs both test suites on ubuntu-latest for every push and pull request.
