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 🙏

Tool for managing sub repositories in a repo, without using git submodules

Readme

Sovendus Launchpad

A tool for managing multiple sub repositories in a single repository without using git submodules.

Table of Contents

Setup

npm install sovendus-launchpad

Add to your package.json

{
  "scripts": {
    "pad": "sovendus-launchpad"
  }
}

Available Options

Clone Missing Repositories

Clones any repositories defined in the config that don't exist locally. If a repository fails to clone (e.g., due to network issues, invalid URL, or permission problems), the operation will continue with the remaining repositories and report which ones failed.

Update All Repositories

Updates all repositories (clone missing ones, pull latest changes for existing ones). If any repository fails to clone or update, the operation will continue with the remaining repositories and provide a summary of successes and failures.

Navigate Folders

Browse through the folder structure and open selected directories in Visual Studio Code. This is helpful for quick navigation through your repository structure.

Configuration

Repositories are defined in sov_launchpad.config.ts. Each repository entry needs:

  • branch: The branch to clone/pull
  • repoUrl: The URL of the git repository

The root repository (sovendus-launchpad itself) will also be updated when running these commands.

Contributions are welcome! Please feel free to submit a pull request or open an issue to discuss improvements or bugs.
