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 🙏

SEO_Sniffer

Develop a Node.js package to let user can use this package to scan a HTML file and show all of the SEO defects.

Features

Implement following 5 pre-defined SEO rules for this package

  1. Detect if any <img /> tag without alt attribute
  2. Detect if any <a /> tag without rel attribute
  3. In <head> tag
  4. Detect if header doesn’t have <title> tag
  5. Detect if header doesn’t have <meta name=“descriptions” ... /> tag
  6. Detect if header doesn’t have <meta name=“keywords” ... /> tag
  7. Detect if there’re more than 15 <strong> tag in HTML (15 is a value should be configurable by user)
  8. Detect if a HTML have more than one <H1> tag.

Development Requirement

  1. User is free to chain any rules by themselves
  2. For example, they can only use the rule 1 and 4 or only use rule 2.
  3. The order of rules is doesn’t matter
  4. User can define and use their own rules easily
  5. The input can be:
  6. A HTML file (User is able to config the input path)
  7. Node Readable Stream
  8. The output can be:
  9. A file (User is able to config the output destination)
  10. Node Writable Stream
  11. Console
  12. Package should be flexible:
  13. When you want to implement additional rules for <meta> tag, The code changes should be small. Ex: Checking <meta name=“robots” /> existing or not?!

Prerequisites

Developing by the Node.js 11.5

Installation

npm install seo_sniffer

Initializing Input/Output

By Constructor

const sniffer = new SnifferManager({
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // 'PathToFile' or fs.ReadStream
  
  output: 'PathToFile'
  // 'PathToFile' or fs.WriteStream or 'console'
})

By setInput()/setOutput()

const sniffer = new SnifferManager()

sniffer.setInput('PathToFile')
// 'PathToFile' or fs.ReadStream

sniffer.setOnput('PathToFile')
// 'PathToFile' or fs.WriteStream or 'console'

Check Methods & Export Reports

hasTagWithoutAttr()

Export Tag/Attribute:

`Has ${diff} ${tag} tag without ${attribute}.`
`No found any ${tag} tag without ${attribute}.`

Export Tag/Attribute/Value:

`Has ${diff} ${tag} tag without ${attribute}="${value}".`
`No found any ${tag} tag without ${attribute}="${value}".`

isTagNotExist()

Export Tag:

`Not find any match on the ${tag}!!`
`Find matches on the ${tag}: ${counter}`

Export Tag/Attribute:

`Not find any match on the ${tag} with ${attribute}!!`
`Find matches on the ${tag} with ${attribute}: ${counter}`

Export Tag/Attribute/Value:

`Not find any match on the ${tag} with ${attribute}="${value}"!!`
`Find matches on the ${tag} with ${attribute}="${value}": ${counter}`

isTagOverLimit()

Export Tag:

`There are ${counter} ${tag} tag, it's over the limit ${limit}!!`
`Find matches on the ${tag} tag: ${counter}`

Export Tag/Attribute:

Export Tag/Attribute/Value:

`There are ${counter} ${tag} with ${attribute}="${value}", it's over the limit ${limit}!!`
`Find matches on the ${tag} with ${attribute}="${value}": ${counter}`

isTagNotOnly()

Export is the same with "isTagOverLimit"

detectSubRules()

Calling the other check methods to detect by the setting in the subRules.

Rule Set Format

{
  rule: 'Check_Method_Name',
  tag: 'HTML_Tag_Name',
  attribute: 'Attribute_Name',
  value: 'Attribute_Value',
  subRules: [{Rule_set}, ...]
  limit: Integer
}
  • Must have: rule & tag
  • If you want to use the subRules, the rule must be "detectSubRules" and the limit will be useless.
  • The limit will be setting up with a default 0, if you are not setting a value.

Predefine Rules

isImageWithoutAlt

Detect if any <img /> tag without alt attribute

{
  rule: 'hasTagWithoutAttr',
  tag: 'img',

{
  rule: 'detectSubRules',
  tag: 'head',
  subRules: [{
    rule: 'isTagNotExist',
    tag: 'title'
  },
  {
    rule: 'isTagNotExist',
    tag: 'meta',
    attribute: 'name',
    value: 'description'

Example

Basic

By Constructor

const { SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

sniffer.detect()

By setInput()/setOutput()

const { SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager()

sniffer.setInput('PathToFile')
// 'PathToFile' or fs.createReadStream(PathToFile)

sniffer.setOnput('PathToFile')
// 'PathToFile' or fs.createWriteStream(PathToFile) or 'console'

sniffer.detect()

No Input/Output by console

const { SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const sniffer = new SnifferManager()

sniffer.check('YourContext')
// sniffer.check('YourContext', [Rules])

Choice from the Predefine Rules

const { PredefineRules, SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

sniffer.detect([
  PredefineRules.isImageWithoutAlt,
  PredefineRules.isAWithoutRel,
  PredefineRules.isHeadLegal
])

Modify the Predefine Rules

If you want to implement additional rules for <meta> tag. Ex: Checking <meta name=“robots” />

const { PredefineRules, SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

PredefineRules.isHeadLegal.subRules.push({
  rule: 'isTagNotExist',
  tag: 'meta',
  attribute: 'name',
  value: 'robots'
})

sniffer.reinitDefaultRules()

sniffer.detect()

If you want to reset the limit of <strong> from 15 to 5

const { PredefineRules, SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

PredefineRules.isStrongOverLimit.limit = 5

sniffer.reinitDefaultRules()

sniffer.detect()

Customize the rule

The Customize rules & the predefine rules can be used in the same time.

const { SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

sniffer.detect([{
  rule: 'isTagNotExist',
  tag: 'meta',
  attribute: 'name',
  value: 'robots'
},
{
  rule: 'isTagNotExist',
  tag: 'meta',
  attribute: 'name',
  value: 'keywords'
}])

Mixed Customize/Predefine rules

const { PredefineRules, SnifferManager } = require('seo_sniffer')

const ioConfig = {
  input: 'PathToFile',
  // input: fs.createReadStream('PathToFile'),

  output: 'PathToFile'
  // output: fs.createWriteStream('PathToFile')
  // output: 'console'
}

const sniffer = new SnifferManager(ioConfig)

sniffer.detect([
  PredefineRules.isStrongOverLimit,
  PredefineRules.isImageWithoutAlt,
  {
    rule: 'isTagNotExist',
    tag: 'meta',
    attribute: 'name',
    value: 'robots'
  },
  {
    rule: 'isTagNotExist',
    tag: 'meta',
    attribute: 'name',
    value: 'keywords'
  }
])
