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 🙏

@fnet/howto

Introduction

The @fnet/howto project is aimed at providing a streamlined process to generate developer guides for npm libraries using OpenAI's language model. By analyzing the library's source code and leveraging OpenAI's GPT models, this tool helps create detailed yet straightforward documentation for developers. The project assists users in obtaining clear, structured guides without delving into complex coding or intricate setups.

How It Works

The @fnet/howto project works by following a multi-step workflow:

  1. Source Code Retrieval: It retrieves the source code of an npm library from the local environment.
  2. OpenAI Configuration: Configures OpenAI's API using stored keys to facilitate interaction with the language model.
  3. Prompt Preparation: Formulates a detailed prompt tailored for generating documentation.
  4. Execution: Sends the prompt to OpenAI's model and retrieves the generated content.
  5. Documentation Creation: Saves the generated guide as a markdown file for easy access and use.

Key Features

  • Automated Documentation Generation: Automatically generates developer guides based on source code analysis.
  • Integration with OpenAI: Utilizes OpenAI's capabilities to generate coherent and context-relevant content.
  • Structured Workflow: Follows a defined process that ensures consistency and reliability in output.
  • Customizable Prompts: Prepares and executes prompts that can be customized to fit different documentation needs.
  • File Handling and Storage: Manages file storage efficiently by saving the generated content in a specified folder.

Conclusion

The @fnet/howto project provides a practical and efficient solution for generating developer documentation for npm libraries. By automating the process and leveraging the power of OpenAI, it helps developers save time and ensure their documentation is both clear and comprehensive.

Developer Guide for @fnet/howto

Overview

The @fnet/howto library is designed to facilitate the generation of developer guides for npm libraries. It leverages OpenAI's API to create documentation that clearly explains the core functionality of a library. This is accomplished by integrating a workflow that processes source files and creates structured, simple, and informative guides for developers.

Installation

To install the @fnet/howto library, use npm or yarn:

npm install @fnet/howto

or

yarn add @fnet/howto

Usage

The primary use of the library is to automate the generation of developer guides. The process involves setting up a workflow that incorporates OpenAI API for generating content based on provided source data. Below is a step-by-step guide demonstrating how to utilize this library:

Step 1: Initialize the Engine

Start by importing the Engine class from @fnet/howto and initializing it:

import HowtoEngine from '@fnet/howto';

const engine = new HowtoEngine();

Step 2: Execute the Workflow

Run the engine with the specific parameters you wish to process. Typically, parameters may include a specific file for which you want to generate documentation:

async function generateGuide() {
    try {
        const result = await engine.run({
            file: 'path/to/your/source/file.js',
            title: 'Your NPM Package Name'
        });
        console.log('Guide generated successfully:', result);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Failed to generate guide:', error);
    }
}

generateGuide();

Step 3: Review and Use the Output

After executing the workflow, the generated documentation will be saved to the specified directory or output. You can then review and distribute this guide as needed.

Examples

The following example demonstrates a simple workflow using @fnet/howto:

import HowtoEngine from '@fnet/howto';

// Initialize the engine
const engine = new HowtoEngine();

// Define async function to execute the process
async function runHowtoGeneration() {
    try {
        // Run the engine with parameters
        await engine.run({
            file: './lib/index.js',
            title: 'Example NPM Package'
        });
        console.log('Documentation generated successfully!');
    } catch (e) {
        console.error('Error during documentation generation:', e);
    }
}

// Execute the function
runHowtoGeneration();

Acknowledgement

The @fnet/howto library integrates the OpenAI API for content generation, ensuring high-quality and informative documentation outputs.
