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

vanilla js query

a library to fetch data and cache the return

usage

all you need to do is create a new instance of the Db class (the class that represents our cache), after that, fetch some data using the fetcher function

    // options available in constructor

    {
        persist?: boolean; // if the data should be save in some database
        cacheTime?: number; // represents the time that the data should be cached
        persistorType?: persistType; // localStorage or IndexedDB or customDB
        CustomDB?: CustomDB; // an external db that implements the Store interface
    }

    const cache = new Db();

    const getPosts = async () => {
      const request = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts');
      const response = await request.json();
      return response;
    };

    const getPostsBtn = document.getElementById('get-posts');

    getPostsBtn?.addEventListener('click', async () => {
      // fetcher parameters

      key: string // a unique value that represents some data
      fetcher: () => Promise<T> // a function that returns some promise
      cache: Db // an instance of the Db class
      expireTime?: number // the cache time for this data ex: Date.now() + 1 * 60 * 60 * 1000

      await fetcher<Response[]>('get-posts', getPosts, cache);
    });
