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 🙏

Install

npm install @financial-times/n-express-enhancer -D

Create Enhancers

upgrade a decorator to an enhancer with createEnhancer

import { createEnhancer } from '@financial-times/n-express-enhancer';

// create a decorator with currying
const decorator = targetFunction => (...args) => {
  // ...enhancement
  return targetFunction(...args);
}

export default createEnhancer(decorator);

Decorators created by currying with arrow functions in ES6 would return a decorated function with undefined name, as arrow functions are anonymous.

Enhancers upgraded from decorators by createEnhancer would return an enhanced function inheriting the original name of the target function, which is useful if you need to access the function name and make it available in the next chained enhancer. Furthermore, enhancers can also enhance a function bundle (functions wrapped as methods in an object), handy for reducing repeated lines to enhance a set of functions.

Use Enhancers

enhance a set of functions

export default enhancer({
  someFunctionA: () => {},
  someFunctionB: () => {},
});

chain enhancers together

import { errorToHandler, compose } from '@financial-times/n-express-enhancer';

const someMiddleware = (req, res) => {};
export default compose(errorToHandler, enhancerA, enhancerB)(someMiddleware);

order of how enhancers would be executed

Available Enhancers

auto next for express

There's an enhancer included in the package that can be used to enhance middleware/controller function in express to next() any error caught to error handler or calling next() on successful middleware execution.

From:

const someMiddleware = (req, res, next) => {
 try {
   //...throw error if needed
   next();
 } catch(e) {
   next(e);
 }
};

export default someMiddleware;

To:

import { errorToHandler } from '@financial-times/n-express-enhancer';

const someMiddleware = (req, res) => {
  //...throw error if needed
};

export default errorToHandler(someMiddleware);

If you need to use res.render in controller, please use enhancedRender together. This is due to an restriction in express@4.

import { enhancedRender } from '@financial-times/n-express-enhancer';

app.use('/route', enhancedRender, enhancedMiddleware);

auto log for express

n-auto-logger - auto log every operation and action in express
