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-red-contrib-starlink-mini-metrics

A Node-RED node that extracts and normalizes advanced metrics from a Starlink Mini raw_status payload.

This node is designed to consume messages published to MQTT (commonly starlink/mini/raw_status) and output a flattened metrics object suitable for dashboards, alerts, and storage (InfluxDB, files, etc.).

Install

From Node-RED Palette Manager, or:

npm install node-red-contrib-starlink-mini-metrics

Restart Node-RED.

Usage

Typical flow:

mqtt in (starlink/mini/raw_status) → starlink mini metrics → debug/dashboard/storage

The node accepts:

  • msg.payload as an object, or
  • msg.payload as a JSON string

If Strict is enabled (default), messages missing payload.status are dropped.

Output

By default, output is written to msg.payload:

  • downlink_mbps, uplink_mbps
  • pop_ping_latency_ms
  • GPS, obstruction, alignment/boresight fields
  • ready state flags
  • (optional) ts, dish_id, serial

Configuration

  • Output property: where to write the metrics object (default: payload)
  • Strict: drop message if missing status (default: true)
  • Identity fields: include ts, dish_id, serial if present (default: true)

Example flow

See examples/flow.json for an importable demo.

Companion Bridge (MQTT Publisher)

This node expects the Starlink Mini status schema commonly published by a bridge that polls the Starlink dish and publishes raw_status to MQTT.
