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 🙏

Vue-ShortKey - plugin for VueJS 2.x accepts shortcuts globaly and in a single listener.

Install

npm install vue-shortkey --save

Usage

Vue.use(require('vue-shortkey'))

Add the shortkey directive to the elements that accept the shortcut. The shortkey must have explicitly which keys will be used.

Running functions

The code below ensures that the key combination ctrl + alt + o will perform the 'theAction' method.

<button v-shortkey="['ctrl', 'alt', 'o']" @shortkey="theAction()">Open</button>

The function in the modifier @shortkey will be called repeatedly while the key is pressed. To call the function only once, use the once modifier

<button v-shortkey.once="['ctrl', 'alt', 'o']" @shortkey="theAction()">Open</button>

Multi keys

<button v-shortkey="{up: ['arrowup'], down: ['arrowdown']}" @shortkey="theAction">Joystick</button>

... and your method will be called with the key in the parameter

methods: {
  theAction (event) {
    switch (event.srcKey) {
      case 'up':
        ...
        break
      case 'down':
        ...
        break

Setting the focus

You can point the focus with the shortcut easily. The code below reserves the ALT + I key to set the focus to the input element.

<input type="text" v-shortkey.focus="['alt', 'i']" v-model="name" />

Push button

Sometimes you may need a shortcut works as a push button. It calls the function one time until you release the shortcut. When you release the shortcut, it call the same function again like a toggle. In these cases, insert the "push" modifier.

The example below shows how to do this

<tooltip v-shortkey.push="['f3']" @shortkey="toggleToolTip"></tooltip>

Using on a component

Use the modifier native to catch the event.

 <my-component v-shortkey="['ctrl', 'alt', 'o']" @shortkey.native="theAction()"></my-component>

Key list

| Key | Shortkey Name | |----------------------------|---------------| | Delete | del | | Backspace | backspace | | Insert | insert | | NumLock | numlock | | CapsLock | capslock | | Pause | pause | | ContextMenu | contextmenu | | ScrollLock | scrolllock | | BrowserHome | browserhome | | MediaSelect | mediaselect | | Shift | shift | | Control | ctrl | | Alt | alt | | Alt Graph | altgraph | | Super (Windows or Mac Cmd) | meta | | Arrow Up | arrowup | | Arrow Down | arrowdown | | Arrow Left | arrowleft | | Arrow Right | arrowright | | Enter | enter | | Escape | esc | | Tab | tab | | Space | space | | Page Up | pageup | | Page Down | pagedown | | Home | home | | End | end | | A - Z | a-z | | 0-9 | 0-9 | | F1-F12 | f1-f12 |

You can make any combination of keys as well as reserve a single key.

<input type="text" v-shortkey="['q']" @shortkey="foo()"/>
<button v-shortkey="['ctrl', 'p']" @shortkey="bar()"></button>
<button v-shortkey="['f1']" @shortkey="help()"></button>
<textarea v-shortkey="['ctrl', 'v']" @shortkey="dontPaste()"></textarea>

Avoided fields

You can avoid shortcuts within fields if you really need it. This can be done in two ways:

  • Preventing a given element from executing the shortcut by adding the v-shortkey.avoid tag in the body of the element
<textarea v-shortkey.avoid></textaea>
  • Generalizing type of element that will not perform shortcut. To do this, insert a list of elements in the global method.
Vue.use('vue-shortkey', { prevent: ['input', 'textarea'] })
  • Or even by class
Vue.use('vue-shortkey', { prevent: ['.my-class-name', 'textarea.class-of-textarea'] })

Other uses

With the dynamism offered by Vue, you can easily create shortcuts dynamically

<li v-for="(ctx, item) in items">
  <a
    href="https://vuejs.org"
    target="_blank"
    v-shortkey="['f' + (item + 1)]"
    @shortkey="testa(item)"
    @click="testa()">
      F {{ item }}
  </a>
</li>

Unit Test
