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 🙏

Coverage Status Dependency Status Travis CI Circle CI

Assimilate all your JavaScript objects into the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) data format (RFC7049) as fast as possible.

About

This library is a fork of the awesome node-cbor. It borrows a lot of the interface, but drops all streaming and async processing in favor of a minimal syn api and being as fast as possible.

Installation

$ npm install --save borc

Benchmarks

TODO

Example

const cbor = require('borc')
const assert = require('assert')

const encoded = cbor.encode(true) // returns <Buffer f5>
const decoded = cbor.decodeFirst(encoded)
// decoded is the unpacked object
assert.ok(decoded === true)

// Use integers as keys
var m = new Map()
m.set(1, 2)
encoded = cbor.encode(m) // <Buffer a1 01 02>

API

See https://dignifiedquire.github.io/borc for details

The sync encoding and decoding are exported as a leveldb encoding, as cbor.leveldb.

Supported types

The following types are supported for encoding:

  • boolean
  • number (including -0, NaN, and ±Infinity)
  • string
  • Array, Set (encoded as Array)
  • Object (including null), Map
  • undefined
  • Buffer
  • Date,
  • RegExp
  • url.URL
  • bignumber

Decoding supports the above types, including the following CBOR tag numbers:

| Tag | Generated Type | |-----|----------------| | 0 | Date | | 1 | Date | | 2 | bignumber | | 3 | bignumber | | 4 | bignumber | | 5 | bignumber | | 32 | url.URL | | 35 | RegExp |

Customizations

Borc supports custom tags as well as custom input types.

Encode Custom Types

class MyType {
  constructor (val) {
    this.val = val
  }

  // Gets called when encoding this object
  // gen - instance of the encoder
  // obj - the object being encoded
  //
  // should return true on success and false otherwise
  encodeCBOR (gen) {
    return gen.pushAny('mytype:' + this.val)
  }
}

cbor.encode([new MyType('hello')])

Encode Custom Tags

cbor.encode([new cbor.Tagged(42, 'hello')])

Decode Custom Tags

const decoder = new cbor.Decoder({
  tags: {
    42: (val) => val + ' world'
  }
})
