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

node-cadb

Content Addressable DataBase. Similair to git in how it stores your data to the disk. A memory aware way of easily having many versions of the same set of objects on the disk. Written entirely asynchronously to be used by node.js.Much of the terminology comes from git. Depends on jssha and fs.extra. If you want to run unit tests they depend on nodeunit. If using an older version you should really upgrade it now installs and passes the unit tests bundled with it.

usage example

var nodeCADB = require('node-cadb');
//create a repo
var repo = new nodeCADB.Repo(__dirname + '/test');
//initialize this repository with an empty master index and the internal folder structure
repo.init(function(){
    //save second argument array of data to the first argument the branch
    repo.saveBranch('master', ['hello from ', 'node-cadb'],
            function() {
	      //callback is executed once complete
		//loads a branch and fires the calllback for each item in the data array
		//with the indices of the whole branch and the data in each item
                repo.loadBranch('master', function(indices, data) {
		    //you could also reconstruct the data on the client side by
		    //hashing it again and finding it's proper place in the indices array
		    //it is not guaranteed to come in order
                    console.log(indices);
                    console.log(data);
                });
            });
});

there is also repo.clone

//source dest callback
repo.clone('master', 'newbranch', function(){

});
