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

Github Backup

A tool to backup all of your organisation's github repositories.

CircleCI JavaScript Style Guide

gh-backup

Features

  • Private repositories
  • Paginates an entire github organisation, not just the first page!
  • Parallel clone (10 streams)
  • Intuitive CLI to show progress
  • Uses github API v3

Why?

There are a lot of tools out in the wild for the same purpose, but not a single one of them works reliably or paginates a large organisation, so you get the first 50-100 repositories and then you have to edit the code to get more...

Pre-requisites

You need a github token if you want to backup private repositories. it needs repo permissions.

Usage

Just install the package locally and run the binary it provides:

npm i -g @antony/github-backup
github-backup --token <your-token-from-above> --organisation <organisation> --workingDir=./some/path

Where:

  • token is your github token (optional)
  • organisation is your organisation name
  • workingDir is where you want the repositories cloned to. If it does not exist it will be created.
