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 🙏

ppp-cli

v0.4.1

Published

A cli tool to help generating PPP files (Progress, Plans & Problems) and sending them to Slack

Readme

This cli tool can help you:

  • Create daily PPPs
    • Each PPP is saved as: YYYY-MM-DD
    • When generating a new PPP, the previous PPP is used as a template
  • Create weekly PPPs
    • Each weekly PPP is saved as: weekly_YYYY-MM-DD_YYYY-MM-DD
    • When generating a new weekly PPP, all PPPs for the last week are merged into a template
  • Automatically post your PPP to a slack channel

Why

PPP is a great tool for boosting your productivity AND is a perfect fit for Slack daily updates.

Installation

npm install ppp-cli --global

You'll need Node 8+.

Configuration

Create a config file in ~/.pprc.json with the following values:

  • dirpath: absolute path to the directory where PPPs are stored
  • token: slack legacy token (https://api.slack.com/custom-integrations/legacy-tokens)
  • channel: id of the slack channel where PPP will be posted (how to get the channel id)
  • user: id of the slack user to post as

Example:

{
  "dirpath": "/path/to/PPP/directory",
  "token": "xoxp-12345",
  "channel": "C3N9KTFU5",
  "user": "alexishevia"
}

Usage

npx ppp-cli [options]

Your default editor ($EDITOR) will open for you to edit your PPP.

After saving & closing the editor, the PPP will be posted to the Slack channel you configured.

Options:

  • -w, --weekly Generate a weekly PPP (by default a daily PPP is generated).
  • -F <filename> Specifies an alternative configuration file. Default is ~/.pprc.json
