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 🙏

requires-port

Made by unshiftVersion npmBuild StatusDependenciesCoverage StatusIRC channel

The module name says it all, check if a protocol requires a given port.

Installation

This module is intended to be used with browserify or Node.js and is distributed in the public npm registry. To install it simply run the following command from your CLI:

npm install --save requires-port

Usage

The module exports it self as function and requires 2 arguments:

  1. The port number, can be a string or number.
  2. Protocol, can be http, http: or even https://yomoma.com. We just split it at : and use the first result. We currently accept the following protocols:
    • http
    • https
    • ws
    • wss
    • ftp
    • gopher
    • file

It returns a boolean that indicates if protocol requires this port to be added to your URL.

'use strict';

var required = require('requires-port');

console.log(required('8080', 'http')) // true
console.log(required('80', 'http'))   // false
