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

Task

Task runner for CryptID.

Motivation

CryptID is a library written in multiple languages with lots of task to perform: creating builds to different architectures using different compilers, testing, coverage reporting and so on.

Of course, we could use (for example) make for the C part and gulp for the JS part, but we're sick and tired of using a plethora of different tools. Thus, we employed substack's ./task.js approach: a simple JS script for each task.

However, there are some common code that we would like to share, and also dependencies we would like to use, therefore we've created a very basic foundation: Task.

Task is not a sophisticated task runner. It just executes scripts and provides a comfortable yargs-based CLI.

Usage

Just call npx @cryptid/task <commands and arguments> in an appropriate repository root.

In CryptID repositories, you can also use ./task <...> or task.bat <...>.

Writing Task tasks

Commands

Task searches for commands in the .task/cmd directory. Commands are simple yargs commands.

Injecting data

Custom data can be injected into command handlers by supplying an .task/inject.js script. This should export a single function, which when called, produces the injectable data.

Example

Please refer to the example directory for code using task.
