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 🙏

nori-newsletter-cli

CLI for managing and sending newsletters via AWS SES. Handles subscriber management through SES contact lists, CSV import, and individual email sending with automatic unsubscribe support.

Setup

npm install
npm run build

AWS Credentials

Configure AWS credentials via environment variables or a .env file:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-access-key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-secret-key
AWS_REGION=us-east-1

Newsletter Configuration

Create a newsletter.config.json in your project root:

{
  "contactListName": "my-newsletter",
  "topicName": "weekly-updates",
  "fromAddress": "My Newsletter <[email protected]>",
  "replyTo": "[email protected]"
}

See newsletter.config.example.json for a template.

Usage

Initialize the contact list

Creates the SES contact list and topic defined in your config:

nori-newsletter init

Manage subscribers

nori-newsletter contacts add [email protected]
nori-newsletter contacts add [email protected] --name "Jane" --company "Acme"
nori-newsletter contacts import subscribers.csv
nori-newsletter contacts list
nori-newsletter contacts remove [email protected]

The CSV format expects columns: email,name,company,added_date.

Send a newsletter

# Send to all subscribers
nori-newsletter send newsletter.html

# Test send to specific recipients
nori-newsletter send newsletter.html --test [email protected]

# Preview without sending
nori-newsletter send newsletter.html --dry-run

The subject line is extracted from the HTML <title> tag. If no title is found, the filename is used.

Unsubscribe handling

When sending via ListManagementOptions, SES automatically:

  • Adds List-Unsubscribe headers (RFC 8058) for Gmail/Yahoo compliance
  • Replaces {{amazonSESUnsubscribeUrl}} in your HTML with a managed unsubscribe link

Include {{amazonSESUnsubscribeUrl}} in your newsletter footer for in-body unsubscribe links.

Development

npm run dev -- init              # Run via tsx without building
npm test                         # Run tests
npm run test:watch               # Watch mode
