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

dependents

Shows package dependency versions in specified node repositories.

Installation & Usage

# Install via NPM
npm i -g @dollarshaveclub/dependents

Then add a dependents key in your projects package.json that contains a list of repositories with their own package.json file. Note that these repos will be using the same organization defined in your repository key.

// package.json
{
  "name": "my-package",
  "version": "5.2.0",
  "repository": "dollarshaveclub/my-package",

  "dependents": [
    "some-repo",
    "another-repo",
    "third-repo"
  ]
}

Dependents will read the package files specified and attempt to resolve your packages version number from them. This is useful when publishing a package across many applications that are not necessarily published to NPM.

dependents -h
  Options:
    -V, --version         output the version number
    -p, --package [file]  The path to the package.json file that contains dependents
    -r, --remote          Search against remote repositories in your org
    -i, --installed       Only show packages that have the dependency installed
    -h, --help            output usage information

Examples

$ dependents -p some/path/to/package.json # Shows a list of dependent versions in the specified package
$ dependents -r # Lists all repos in the org and if they depend on the client package
$ dependents -ri # Lists all dependents in the org that actually have the client package installed
