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 🙏

universal-event-listening

v1.0.0

Published

Event listening for EVERY event listener!

Readme

universal-event-listening (UEL)

Event listening for EVERY event listener!

COMPATABILITY WITH socket.io

import { Server } from "socket.io"
import UEL from "universal-event-listening"

const io = new Server()

UEL.on(io, "connect", ...)
UEL.emit(io, "hello", "world")
UEL.send(io, "Hi!")

COMPATABILITY WITH engine.io

Since engine.io is the backbone of socket.io, UEL also supports engine.io! NOTE: engine.io does NOT have a send(...) function, UEL uses emit("message", ...)

COMPATABILITY WITH socket.io-client AND engine.io-client

UEL also supports socket.io-client and engine.io-client!

COMPATABILITY WITH rmtrollbot

Since rmtrollbot has send and emit, UEL supports rmtrollbot! NOTE: rmtrollbot does NOT have a built-in on function, this could probably be fixed later

COMPATABILITY WITH YAEL (yet-another-event-listener)

YAEL is basically another event listener, so it works.

COMPATABILITY WITH OTHER EVENT LISTENERS

To be completely UEL quailified. You must meet these specific conditions:

  1. Must have send, emit, and on functions.
  2. Should be a class to initialize the event listener.
  3. Should have the text "UEL please qualify" on the README, this does however not apply to packages with over 100 downloads a week.

NOTE: If condition 1 is NOT (completely) met, then it will be classified as loosely UEL qualified. NOTE 2: Every condition (excluding 1) will need to be strictly met, or else, your "event listener" won't be UEL qualified

SHIELDS/BADGES

Only put these if you are UEL Qualified, Loosely UEL Qualified, or Not UEL Qualified respectively, these are only available to be put on when UEL checks your package as one of those 3.
