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 🙏

@aeinbu/groupby

Lightweight and non-intrusive functions for doing "group by" and "distinct" (aka. "unique") transformations on collections using reducers

  • The functions are lightweight, as they are small and don't make you bring along lots of functions you don't need.
  • The functions are flexible since you can choose how to best represent your grouped data
    • An array of key-value pairs that are easy to further process using .map(...), .filter(...) and other built-in array functions
    • A dictionary in the shape of a standard javascript object or an ES2015 built-in Map
  • These functions run just as well in a browser as they do in nodejs.
  • The package is non-intrusive, as it doesn't extend arrays adding new and non-standard methods to them.
    • This is done by having functions that you use with .reduce(...) on arrays.
  • @types are included for better discoverability during development when you use editors with javascript/typescript intellisence support

How to install

With npm

npm install @aeinbu/groupby

...or with yarn

yarn add @aeinbu/groupby

Quickstart

import { groupBy, toMap } from "@aeinbu/groupby"

const people = [
    {name: "Tony", residence: "Rome"},
    {name: "Mary", residence: "Rome"},
    {name: "Peter", residence: "London"},
    {name: "Peter", residence: "Rome"},
    {name: "Elisabeth", residence: "London"},
    {name: "Francois", residence: "Paris"}
]

const results = people
    .reduce(groupBy(x => x.name, x => x.residence), [])
    .reduce(toMap(x => x.name), new Map())

// With the same results as above:
// {
//     "Rome": ["Tony", "Mary", "Peter"],
//     "London": ["Peter", "Elisabeth"],
//     "Paris": ["Francois"]
// }
