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

n-teaser

Server and client-side teaser templates, along with their respective next-api query fragments and presenters. Styling for teasers is in o-teaser.

What is a teaser?

A teaser represents content – usually an article. It helps readers to decide if the content is relevant to them and showcases the breadth of FT content. It always links to a content page. Read the o-teaser docs for more information.

How to use

Demo

Run make demo to serve a set of demo templates on http://localhost:5005.

Use in an app

In the consuming app:

  • Add to package.json

    It’s a node module only - no need to add to bower.json

  • Register the presenter in the express options

    helpers:  { nTeaserPresenter: require('@financial-times/n-teaser').presenter }
  • Get the data from next-api

    Use the data fragments from nTeaser that correspond to the teaser type(s) you will be using.

  • Add the teaser partials to your templates

    Should be referenced as > n-teaser/templates/standard

Teaser Types

| Teaser | Tag | Title | Standfirst | Time Stamp | Headshot | Image | Actions | Related Content | Duration (video content only) | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | Extra Light | only if opinion or brand | Y | N | Y | N | N | N | N | N | | Light | Y | Y | N | Y | Y | N | Y | N | Y | | Lifestyle(1) | Y | Y | N | Y | Y | Y | N | N | Y | | Standard | Y | Y | Y | Y | Y | N | Y | N | Y | | Heavy | Y | Y | Y | Y | N | Y | Y | N | Y | | TopStory | Y | Y | Y | Y | N | Heavy variant | Y | Y | Y |

(1) Lifestyle branches off the hierarchy from Light

Data Queries

It is recommended that the data to populate n-teasers is sourced from next-api. The required data properties for each of the teasers is contained in n-teaser.

Data fragments build cumulatively based on the hierarchy of teasers. So to get all the data for a heavy teaser, you will need to use the fragments for ExtraLight, Light and Standard as well as Heavy.

Example of a next-api query to populate Heavy Teasers;

const teaserFragments = require('@financial-times/n-teaser').fragments;

module.exports = `

	${teaserFragments.teaserExtraLight}
	${teaserFragments.teaserLight}
	${teaserFragments.teaserStandard}
	${teaserFragments.teaserHeavy}

	query RelatedContent (
		$tagId: String!,
		$limit: Int!
	) {
		search(termName: "metadata.idV1", termValue: $tagId, limit: $limit) {
			...TeaserExtraLight
			...TeaserLight
			...TeaserStandard
			...TeaserHeavy
		}
	}
`;

Including templates

Teasers are added to your template as partials. Additional arguments can be passed to control display.

Example of a teaser without an image;

<div data-o-grid-colspan="12 L6">
  {{#slice items offset=1 limit=3}}
    {{>n-teaser/templates/standard mods=(array 'small')}}
  {{/slice}}
</div>

The mods argument is for class modifiers that are added to the base o-teaser class name. Details on these can be found in the o-teaser repository.

Example of a teaser with an image;

<div data-o-grid-colspan="12 L6">
  {{#slice items offset=0 limit=1}}
    {{>n-teaser/templates/heavy mods=(array 'large') colspan='{"default": 12, "L": 6}' position='{"default": "bottom"}' widths="[500, 332]"}}
  {{/slice}}
</div>

The colspan, position and widths arguments are passed on to n-image to determine the properties of how the image is displayed in the teaser. More details on what is supported by n-image can be found in that repository.

Display options

Parameters can be passed to suppress some elements of teasers that would otherwise appear.

Elements that rely on presenter logic

  • Related Content (on TopStory teasers) - set noRelatedContent = true
  • Tag (on all teasers) - set noTag = true
  • Author Headshot (on Light, Standard and Lifestyle teasers) - set noHeadshot = true

Elements that are not transformed by presenter logic

  • Standfirst - set standfirst = false
  • Main Image - set mainImage = false

Demo page

$ make demo: Serves examples of the component locally (http://localhost:5005), using dummy data and in isolation from an app.

This is done on a simple express app which renders a single demo page that calls the partials to exhibit, populating them with data from a fixture.

Pa11y

$ make a11y: Serves page of demo components, on which it runs Pa11y accessibility tests (errors flagging up accessibility infringements), which will also be run as part of the Continuous Integration (CI) process.
