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

node-server

A reference implementation of the 9DB server specification, written in Node.js.

Installation

npm install @9db/server --save

Usage

import {Server} from '@9db/server';

const server = new Server();

server.start();

You should be able to access the server by visiting http://localhost:9999.

Options

The following options can be passed to new Server({ ... }):

key | description | default value ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------- port | The HTTP port that the 9DB server should bind to. | 9999 adapter | The database adapter to use for storing nodes. See the Adapters section below. | MemoryAdapter hostname | The hostname (protocol + FQDN) that this server will be hosted from. | http://localhost

Adapters

The server uses adapters in order to store nodes for later use. Pass an explicit adapter to your server via:

const adapter = new MemoryAdapter();
const server = new Server({ adapter });

There are several different adapters available out of the box:

MemoryAdapter

This adapter merely retains nodes in local process memory. If the server crashes or is restarted, all persisted nodes will be lost. Useful for local development but should be replaced with a different adapter type before you deploy.

If no explicit adapter is specified, this adapter type will be used by default.

import {MemoryAdapter} from '@9db/server';

const adapter = new MemoryAdapter();

FilesystemAdapter

This adapter persists nodes to the local filesystem. Depending on your needs, this simple persistence mechanism could be sufficient. However, it is not well suited to serving high-traffic sites, and cannot function in a load-balanced cluster.

import {FilesystemAdapter} from '@9db/server';

const adapter = new FilesystemAdapter({
  path: '/home/pachet/9db/cache'
});

RedisAdapter

This adapter persists nodes to a Redis instance. This is the recommended adapter to use for high-traffic sites.

import {RedisAdapter} from '@9db/server';

const adapter = new RedisAdapter({
  hostname: 'localhost',
  port: 6667
});

Creating your own adapter

You can also specify your own adapter in order to persist your 9DB nodes to databases that are not supported by the included adapters.

An adapter must implement the following methods:

  • fetchNode(node_key)
  • storeNode(node_key, node)
  • setField(node_key, field_key, old_value, new_value)
