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 🙏

Usage

Web interface

Convenient way for viewing your packages in a browser. The web interface will only list your private packages, it will not list the public packages if you have a public registry enabled. However, when searching for packages in bower, the public ones will show up just fine.

http://localhost:5678/

Project

Within your project, you will need to create a .bowerrc file containing the URL of your private bower server:

{
  "registry": "http://yourPrivateBowerRepo:5678",
  "timeout": 300000
}

If you are using private bower with server.siteBaseURL option, you need to add the same path the registry url in your .bowerrc file:

Config

{
  "server": {
    "port": 6789,
    "hostName": "yourPrivateBowerRepo",
    "setBaseURL": "/my-private-bower"
  }
}

.bowerrc

{
  "registry": "http://yourPrivateBowerRepo:6789/my-private-bower",
  "timeout": 300000
}

List packages

GET

bower-server:5678/packages

Search packages

Register package

bower register [packageName] [gitRepo]

or POST

bower-server:5678/packages

{ "name": "package-name", "url": "git://repoPath" }

or POST

bower-server:5678/packages/<package name>

{ "url": "git://repoPath" }

Register packages

POST

bower-server:5678/packages

[ { "name": "package-name", "url": "git://repoPath" } ]

Remove package

DELETE

bower-server:5678/packages/<package name>

Remove packages

DELETE

bower-server:5678/packages

["package-name"]

Restart server

POST

bower-server:5678/restart

Refresh caches

POST

bower-server:5678/refresh

Authentication

Authentication can be enabled for the following features:

  • Register package
  • Register packages
  • Remove package
  • Remove packages
  • Restart server

Add Auth-Key header to request.

Auth-Key = password

Log4js configuration

There are two appenders set in the example configuration. You need to remove one of the two if you want to use it. fileDate appender will write the log to a file which will be rotated daily. Console will write the logging to the console in the log4js format. You need to set the replaceConsole to true if you want to write the logging to the log4j appenders. See github.com/nomiddlename/log4js-node for more information

Tips for usage

Server as a service

Use behind proxy

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://

Calling the API

  • do not forget to set the Content-Type header to application/json
