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 🙏

Summary

Functional assertion combinators.

Name | Type | Runtime --------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|------------------------------ Primitive | string | $.string Primitive | number | $.number Primitive | boolean | $.boolean Primitive | undefined | $.undefined Primitive | null | $.null Undefined or null | undefined \| null | $.nil Undefined or A | undefined \| A | $.undefinedOr(a) Nullable A | null \| A | $.nullOr(a) Nillable A | undefined \| null \| A | $.nilOr(a) Unknown | unknown | $.unknown Array | A[] | $.array(a) Object | { a: A, b: B } | $.object({ a, b }) Exact object | { a: A, b: B } | $.exact({ a, b }) Record | Record<K, V> | $.record(k, v) Keyed object | Record<string, undefined \| V> | $.keyed(v) Intersection | A & B | $.and(a, b) Primitive type union | 'A' \| 'B' | $.oneOf('A', 'B') Union | A \| B | $.or(a, b) Date string YYYY-MM-DD | stringweaker | $.dateString Defined | Exclude<A, undefined> | $.defined(a) Literal primitive | "foo", 42 | $.eq('foo'), $.eq(42) Tuple | [number, string] | $.tuple($.number, $.string) Finite number | numberweaker | $.finite Positive number | numberweaker | $.positive Safe integer | numberweaker | $.safeInteger Greater than | numberweaker | $.gt(42) Greater than | numberweaker | $.gt(42) Greater or equal than | numberweaker | $.gte(42) Non blank string | stringweaker | $.nonBlankString Regexp | stringweaker | $.regexp(/^[a-z]+$/i) Strftime formatted string | stringweaker | $.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')

Utility functions

  • errorOf – instead of throwing, returns Error or undefined if assertion passes.
  • identity
  • if
  • implies
  • in
  • predicate
  • rethrow

Examples

import * as $ from '@appliedblockchain/assert-combinators'

ws.on('message', _ => {

  const { method, agree } = $.object({
    method: $.string,
    agree: $.boolean
  })(JSON.parse(_))

  // Types are correct:
  // method: string
  // agree: boolean

})

Not precise types

In some cases runtime type assertions provide stronger guarantees than static types.

For example $.finite asserts that the value is not only a number but also that is not NaN, Infinity or -Infinity.

Opaque types section provides solution for some cases.

Opaque types

Unlike Flow, TypeScript doesn't directly support opaque types.

However, they can be emulated by intersecting with object containing unique property type which exists in static type system only. It does not exist in runtime value.

type Finite = number & { readonly _tag: 'Finite' }

Opaque types allow to design code in such a way that value of the type can be created in one place – as result of runtime type assertion – only. The only possible way of creating values of this type is to create valid values. Those assertions have to happen at construction and I/O boundaries only. Once value is validated, it enters static type system. It doesn't have to be re-validated anywhere else in the code. Usage of the value is safe, guaranteed to conform to this assertion.

Good examples of opaque type candidates are NonEmptyArray<T>, Positive, Email. ValidatedEmail – ie. an email that passed some async validation can be used to annotate function parameter for functions that should be used only for validated emails – without the need for re-validating email in each function's body.

Optional tuple tail

When tail of tuple accepts undefined values, resulting tuple may have shorter length than arity of assertion function.

const assertMyTuple = $.tuple($.string, $.undefinedOr($.number))
assertMyTuple([ 'foo' ]) // ok
assertMyTuple([ 'foo', 1 ]) // ok

A good rule of thumb is to destructure tuple elements if it accepts undefined at tail position to make sure the code doesn't rely on the length, ie:

const [ myString, maybeNumber ] = assertMyTuple(input)

Exhaustive switch

Use never assertion to force exhaustiveness on switch statements:

import * as $ from '@appliedblockchain/assert-combinators'

type X = 'a' | 'b' | 'c'

const assertX: $.Assert<X> =
  $.oneOf('a', 'b', 'c')

const x: X = assertX(JSON.parse('"c"'))
switch (x) {
  case 'a':
  case 'b':
    console.log(x)
    break
  default:

  // Argument of type 'string' is not assignable to parameter of type 'never'.ts(2345)
  // const x: "c"
  $.never(x)
}
