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

@equartiste/deploy-tracker

A robust Node.js telemetry package to expose detailed system diagnostics and environment details via a secure GET endpoint.

Features

  • On-Demand Telemetry: No background heartbeats; data is only collected and served when requested.
  • Deep System Insights: Powered by systeminformation to provide CPU, Memory, OS, Storage, and Network details.
  • Middleware Support: Easily integrate into Express, Koa, or standard Node.js http servers.
  • Standalone Mode: Run a dedicated monitoring server on a custom port.
  • Environment Aware: Automatically captures process.env and runtime details.

Installation

npm install @equartiste/deploy-tracker
# or
bun add @equartiste/deploy-tracker

Usage

1. Standalone Status Server

Start a dedicated server that exposes system vitals.

import { Tracker } from '@equartiste/deploy-tracker';

const tracker = new Tracker({
  serverPort: 3001,           // Starts a server on port 3001
  serverPath: '/status'       // Endpoint path (defaults to /deploy-tracker)
});

// Access diagnostics at: http://localhost:3001/status

2. Express Middleware Integration

Integrate into your existing Express application.

import express from 'express';
import { Tracker } from '@equartiste/deploy-tracker';

const app = express();
const tracker = new Tracker({
  serverPath: '/api/vitals'
});

// Use as middleware
app.get('/api/vitals', tracker.handleRequest);

app.listen(3000);

3. Manual Collection

Manually trigger diagnostic collection.

import { Tracker } from '@equartiste/deploy-tracker';

const tracker = new Tracker();

async function checkVitals() {
  const vitals = await tracker.getDeployInfo();
  console.log(vitals);
}

API Configuration

The Tracker constructor accepts a TrackerConfig object:

| Property | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | serverPort | number | (Optional) Port to start a standalone HTTP server. | | serverPath | string | Path for the status endpoint (default: /deploy-tracker). | | onCollect | function | Async callback to modify or extend the data before it's returned. |

Data Structure

The endpoint returns a JSON object with the following structure:

{
  "timestamp": "2024-05-08T12:00:00.000Z",
  "system": {
    "cpu": { ... },
    "memory": {
      "total_gb": "16.00",
      "free_gb": "4.50",
      "used_gb": "11.50"
    },
    "os": { ... },
    "storage": [ ... ],
    "network": [ ... ],
    "virtualization": {
      "docker": { ... },
      "vbox": { ... }
    }
  },
  "environment": { ... process.env ... },
  "runtime": {
    "version": "v20.10.0",
    "platform": "linux",
    "arch": "x64",
    "uptime": 12345,
