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 🙏

type-to-fast-check

v0.0.3

Published

Automatically convert TypeScript types to fast-check arbitraries!

Readme

[!NOTE]

This package is in a beta state and I'm excited for you to try it out!

I'd love your feedback! Share any suggestions, bug reports, feature requests, or general thoughts by filing an issue.

Install

$ npm i --save-dev type-to-fast-check fast-check

Usage

import * as fc from 'fast-check'
import typeToArb from 'type-to-fast-check'

type User = {
  firstName: string
  lastName: string
}

const userArb = typeToArb<User>()

fc.assert(
  fc.property(userArb, user => {
    // ...
  }),
)

The following code:

const userArb = typeToArb<User>()

Compiles to:

const userArb = fc.record({
  firstName: fc.string(),
  lastName: fc.string(),
})

You can pass any type to typeToArb!

Configure

  1. Add the transformer plugin to your tsconfig.json:

    {
      "compilerOptions": {
        "plugins": [{ "transform": "type-to-fast-check/transformer" }]
      }
    }
  2. Set up ts-patch to apply the configured plugin:

    1. Install:

      $ npm i --save-dev ts-patch
    2. Run for the first time:

      $ ts-patch install
    3. Configure to run after npm install:

      package.json

      {
        "scripts": {
          "prepare": "ts-patch install -s"
        }
      }
  3. Configure your test runner to run tsc if it doesn't by default:

    • vitest (uses esbuild and doesn't run tsc)

      1. Install Rollup plugin:

        npm i --save-dev @rollup/plugin-typescript
      2. Add the plugin to your vitest.config.ts:

        vitest.config.ts

        import typescript from '@rollup/plugin-typescript'
        import { defineConfig } from 'vitest/config'
        
        export default defineConfig({
          // ...
          plugins: [typescript()],
        })
    • Send me PRs for configuring other test runners!
