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 🙏

Particle Emitter CreateJS

A CreateJS Container extension to make a Particle Emitter that controls the CreateJS DisplayObjects it emits and specified intervals

Usage

All options for the emitter have default values: See examples folder:

    // The 'display' property below can be a CreateJS DisplayObject
    // an Array of Display Objects
    // or a Function that returns a DisplayObject
    
    // Function that just returns a single square shape
    let createSquare = function () {
        // Create a shape to be the particle
        let square = new createjs.Shape();
        square.graphics.beginFill("Red").drawRect(0, 0, 10, 10);
        square.set({ regX: 5, regY: 5 });
        return square;
    }

    //Function to be called when each particle's `play()` function is called
    let particlePlay = function(particle) {
        console.log(particle);
    }

    // Function to be called when the emitter's `stop()` function is called
    let emitterStop = function(emitter) {
        console.log(emitter);
    }

    // Settings for each particles
    let particleSettings = {
        display: createSquare,
        lifetime: { min: 1, max: 2 }, 
        moveSpeed: { min: 5, max: 10 },
        rotateSpeed: { min: -180, max: 180 },
        scaleEase: createjs.Ease.sineInOut,
        scaleOverTime: { start: 1, end: 0 },
        opacityEase: createjs.Ease.quadInOut,
        opacityOverTime: { start: 1, end: 0 },
        randomStartVelocity: { x: true, y: true },
        randomStartRotation: true,
        force: { x: 0, y: 0 },
        explode: false,
        implode: false,
        gravity: 9.8,
        playCallback: particlePlay
    };

    // Settings for the emitter
    let emitterSettings = {
        particle: particle, // The particleSettings object created above
        particleContainer: null,
        emitterType: {
            type: 'ring',
            size: { radius: 50 }
        },
        count: 30,
        rate: 0.1,
        loop: false,
        burst: false,
        startOn: true,
        prewarm: 0,
        stopCallback: emitterStop
    };

    return new ParticleEmitter(emitterSettings);

Particle Settings

display - The visual DisplayObject for the particle. Can be either a single DisplayObject, an Array of DisplayObjects, or a Function that returns a Display Object

lifetime - The min and max lifetime of each particle (random number between if values are different)

moveSpeed - The min and max movement speed for each particle (random number between if values are different)

rotateSpeed - The min and max rotation speed for each particle (random number between if values are different)

scaleEase - The CreateJS Ease Function to use for scaleOverTime property

scaleOverTime - The start and end value for scaling the particle over it's lifetime

opacityEase - The CreateJS Ease function to use for the opacityOverTime property

opacityOverTime - The start and end value for changing the alpha property of the particle over it's lifetime

randomStartVelocity - Does the particle get a random X and Y start velocity/direction

randomStartRotation - Does the particle get a random start rotation

force - The force to apply in the X and Y direction (wind)

** Note only one option 'explode' or 'implode' can be set to true not both **    
explode - Do the particles 'explode' outwards from the center of the emitter shape - does not work with 'point'

** Note only one option 'explode' or 'implode' can be set to true not both **
implode - Do the particles 'implode' towards the center of the emitter shape - does not work with 'point'

gravity - The Gravity force on the Y axis (pos or neg)

playCallback - Callback function to be called when a Particle's `play()` function is called. The function is passed the Particle that called the function (Optional)

stopCallback - Callback function to be called when a Particle's `stop()` function is called. The function is passed the Particle that called the function (Optional)

Emitter Settings

particle - An object containing some or all the Particle Settings listed above

particleContainer - The Parent container to add all particles too. Default is the ParticleEmitter itself

emitterType - The shape and size for the emitter - see examples folder for more info

count - The number of particles created and controlled in the pool

rate - The rate (speed) at which the particles are spawned over time (ignored if burst is true)

loop - Does the emitter loop or just play once (true / false)

burst - If set to `true` the emitter will spawn all the particles at once (takes precedence over rate)

startOn - Does the particle emitter play immediately or not (`.play()` call is required if false)

prewarm - Number of Frames to simulate - Simulate where the particle emitter would be after X number of frames - Use for emitters such as a waterfall effect that would have been pre-running before being visually loaded

playCallback - Callback function to be called when the emitter's `play()` function is called, called when instantion is complete if `startOn = true`. The function is passed the ParticleEmitter that called the function (Optional)

stopCallback - Callback function to be called when the emitter's `stop()` function is called, called when the last particle spawns if `loop = false`. The function is passed the ParticleEmitter that called the function (Optional)
