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

tinyrouting-routinghandler

What is it for?

This is a tiny npm package that provides routing functionality for updating the URL path. It can be used to handle routing logic and trigger a callback function (normally a rerendering function but it could be anything you choose). It can be used in conjunction with tinyrouting-routinghandler (https://www.npmjs.com/package/tinyrouting-navigationhandler) in order to create routing logic and page re-renders based on routing.

Why?

Many routing libraries are specific to certain frameworks or come with a large codebase. The routingHandler package aims to provide a lightweight solution for routing in various applications and use cases.

Function Parameters

The function accepts a single callback parameter, which should be a function. This callback function will be executed whenever the URL path changes.

How it works

The routingHandler function utilizes the History Web API, which is a built-in JavaScript API provided by web browsers. It listens to the popstate event, which is triggered when the URL path changes. When the event occurs, the function extracts the current path from the URL and calls the provided callback function with the current path as an argument.

If the callback function is not provided or is not a function, an error will be thrown. The popstate event listener is set up to continuously monitor the URL path, and the initial callback is invoked when the function is called.

If any errors occur during the execution of the routingHandler function, they will be logged to the console.

Compatibility

Compatible with:

  • React (tested on v18.2.0)

  • Vue (tested on v3.3.2)

  • Vanilla Javascript

Examples

Note: these examples also use the  tinyrouting-routinghandler (https://www.npmjs.com/package/tinyrouting-routinghandler) for routing logic.
