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 🙏

Simple Migration Language Compiler

Readme

SiMLa - Simple Migration Language

I created this language or compiler just to create knex migration easily for my projects.

Install

Open your terminal and type:

npm install -g simla

Usage

simla [-i <input file>] [-o <output file>] [-p] [-s]

-i  Input file
-o  Output file
-p  Print output to terminal
-s  Open interactive compiler

PS: Interactive compiler won't start if -i parametr is presented.

If you want to compile structure.sml to migration.js, then type:

simla -i structure.sml -o migration.js

Structure

TABLE <table name> {
    <type>(<size>) <name> <props>
    <type>(<size>) <name> <props> > <reference>
    <type>(<size>) <name> <props> > <table>.<field>
}

Example

TABLE products {
    ID
    STRING(100) name NOT NULL
    STRING(100) details
    DECIMAL(8, 2) price
    UINT seller_id > sellers.id
    TS
}

Types

|Name|Description| |--|--| |ID|Autoincrement primary key| |TS|Timestamps (created_at, updated_at)| |UINT|Unsigned integer| |INT|Integer| |BOOL|Boolean| |*|Any exists type with UPPERCASE characters|

Props

|Name|Alias|Description| |--|--|--| |NOT NULL|NN, NOT_NULL|Property is not nullable| |DEFAULT|DEF|Sets default value for property. Eg.: INT price DEF 0| |UNSIGNED|US|Makes property un-signed|

Enums?

Here's an example to know how to model enums with SiMLa.

TABLE car {
    ID
    STRING name
    ENUM(['red', 'green', 'blue']) color DEFAULT red
    TS
}

And, Interactive compiler

It looks like that. To launch compiler open terminal and type: simla -s

Open local compiler
