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 🙏

post-turtle 🐢

post-turtle is a simple shell based Postman alternative written in TypeScript. It is designed to help developers make quick API requests on the fly without having to use something as heavy as Postman

Install

npm install -g post-turtle

Features

Interactive Mode

pt called without any arguments will trigger an interactive command line interface. You can use this interface to create, update or delete existing requests, as well as triggering ones that have been created.

Non-interactive Mode

Requests that have been created using interactive mode are stored in your home directory in a file called .post-turtle-request. Once you have created some requests, these requests will be available to call non-interactively using pt call <slug>

Parameters

All request fields can contain 'parameters' by using a simplified handlebars syntax. If a request contains parameters in the form {{ name : description }}, it will have the following effect

  • Triggering the request via interactive mode will produce an input field for each parameter
  • The command generated by pt call will also include a required --option for that parameter

About This Package

This package is written in TypeScript using a combination of ink to allow me to write a great responsive CLI experience using my React skills and commander.js to provide a nice non-interactive CLI setup
