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 🙏

thing-it-device-smart-meter

NPM NPM

[thing-it-node] Device Plugin for a generic Smart Meter for electrical energy consumption. Manufacturers of Smart Meters may use this as an example to implement a [thing-it-node] Device Plugin for their Smart Meter products.

Installation

Installation of NodeJS and [thing-it-node]

First, install node.js and [thing-it-node] on your Gateway Computer (e.g. Raspberry Pi or C.H.I.P) following the instructions on the [thing-it-node] Wiki.

Initialization and Start of [thing-it-node]

The [thing-it-device-smart-meter] Plugin is installed with [thing-it-node], hence there is no need to install it separately.

The Plugin is simulation-only so far, hence you only have to create a directory in which you intend to run the configuration, e.g.

mkdir ~/smart-meter-test
cd ~/smart-meter-test

and invoke

tin init

and then start [thing-it-node] via

tin run

If you don't want to use Autodiscovery, you may use configurations like the sample configuration via

tin example --device smart-meter

If you want to pair the [thing-it-node] Gateway and its sample configuration with thing-it.com, invoke

tin pair --mesh Test

and enter your thing-it.com account and password. The pairing will allow you to configure and monitor your local Gateway from thing-it.com and use the Mobile App below to connect to the Gateway from everywhere.

Mobile UI

Install the thing-it Mobile App from the Apple Appstore or Google Play and set it up to connect to [thing-it-node] locally as described here or just connect your browser under http://localhost:3001 to check how the Mobile UI would look like.

The following screenshot shows the Node Page of the sample configuration with the Mobile UI to monitor and control the Smart Meter:

Where to go from here ...
