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

Spectacles REST

A REST router and ratelimiter for the Discord API. Supports local and distributed ratelimit handling; as such, requests are not sent in order.

Getting started

const { Rest } = require('@spectacles/rest');
const rest = new Rest('token here');
rest.get(`/channels/${someID}`).then(console.log);

The rest instance has the following methods:

  • get
  • patch
  • put
  • delete
  • post

PATCH, PUT, and POST take the request body as the second parameter. All methods take options as the last parameter: options are just an extension of the Fetch API init parameters.

interface File {
	name: string;
	file: string | Buffer | NodeJS.ReadableStream;
}

interface Request extends RequestInit {
	files?: File | File[];
	reason?: string;
	endpoint?: string;
}

For example, you could create a guild ban like so:

rest.put(`/guilds/${guildID}/bans/${userID}`, {}, { reason: 'bad memes' });

All REST calls resolve with the JSON parsed response from the Discord API or a Buffer if the Discord API did not send JSON. The library will attempt to retry all ratelimited or 5xx errors up to the retryLimit specified in the Rest constructor options.

enum TokenType {
	BOT = 'Bot',
	BEARER = 'Bearer',
}

interface Options {
	tokenType: TokenType,
	base: string,
	version: number,
	agent: https.Agent,
	ua: string,
	mutex: RatelimitMutex,
	retryLimit: number,
}

Distributed ratelimiting

By default, the library uses a built-in local ratelimiter. To use the built-in Redis ratelimiter:

const { RedisMutex, Rest } = require('@spectacles/rest');
const Redis = require('ioredis');

const redis = new Redis();
const rest = new Rest('token', {
	mutex: new RedisMutex(redis, 'optional key prefix'),
});

// use rest normally

You can use anything as a mutex that fulfills the RatelimitMutex interface.
