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 🙏

Readme

rtlips-server

Real-Time Location & Indoor Positioning System server. Combines the following:

  • real-time contextual events from Pareto or hlc-server (RTLS)
  • real-time BLE (beacon) site surveys from mobile devices (IPS)
  • simple positioning algorithms

The real-time location/positioning data stream can be consumed using websockets.

Installation

npm install rtlips-server

Hello rtlips-server

const rtlipsServer = require('rtlips-server');

const options = { /* See options */ };

var app = new rtlipsServer(options);

// Connect to Pareto websocket (requires token)
app.connect('https://pareto.reelyactive.com',
            { query: { token: 'paste from Pareto' } });

// Connect to a local hlc-server instance
app.connect('http://localhost:3001');

Then connect a websocket client to http://localhost:3007 and listen for 'appearance', 'displacement', 'keep-alive' and 'disappearance' events. See our Build web apps with beaver.js tutorial for everything you need to quickly get up and running.

Receiving mobile site surveys

POST mobile site surveys to the /events route (ex: http://localhost:3007/events). The mobile site survey must have, at a minimum, the following properties:

{
  "event": "keep-alive",
  "time": 1420075425678,
  "deviceAssociationIds": [ "/* BLE UUID */" ],
  "rssiSignature": {
    "beacon_id_0": rssi_0,
    "beacon_id_1": rssi_1, ...
  }
}

where the beacon_id values are the identifiers of the detected beacons given as lowercase hexadecimal strings without separators (ex: "7265656c79416374697665205555494400000000", which is a concatenated iBeacon UUID, Major, Minor), and the rssi values are numbers.

If the mobile device advertises a Bluetooth Low Energy UUID, be sure to include this in the deviceAssociationIds array, else provide an empty array.

Options

The following options are accepted at run-time.

references

Add a references property to the options to specify all the reference devices (with known positions). For example:

references: {
  "001bc50940810000": { position: [ 0, 0 ] },
  "001bc50940810001": { position: [ 10, 10 ] }
}

pullFactor

Add a pullFactor property to the options to adjust the pull factor in the anchor-and-pull positioning method. The default value is 2. Values should be 1 or greater.

pullFactor: 2
