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

@confuzzle/ecoji-buffers

Encode and decode arbitrary data as emoji. Since it uses ecoji-js under the hood it may be compatible with the ecoji standard, but has not been tested for this.

Huge thanks are owed to the following authors whose work is used in this package under license:

This package differs from the packages above in that it operates with buffers. ecoji-js only accepts and produces strings, so is less convenient for arbitrary binary data. emojicoding accepts only arrays of emoji to decode, meaning strings need to be split into emoji (non-trivial). See grapheme-splitter for a possible way to do this.

ecoji-buffers also differs from these packages in that it is a standalone package with no dependencies.

Functions

  • encode(x) - encodes a Uint8Array or Buffer as an emoji string
  • decode(x) - decodes an emoji string to a Buffer

Example Usage

const ecoji = require('@confuzzle/ecoji-buffers');
const x = Buffer.from('Hello world');
const y = ecoji.encode(x);
console.log(y); // 🏯🔩🚗🌷🍉🤣🦒🕊👡
const z = ecoji.decode(y).toString();
console.log(z); // Hello world

Limitations

This package has not been optimised for performance in any way, and has not been extensively tested. Use at your own risk.
