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 🙏

		console.log('going right from the last slide')
	} else {
		console.log('going ', direction, 'from slide ', currentIdx, ' to slide ', nextIdx)
	}
}

Story object

Instead of simple string url, a comprehensive 'story object' can also be passed in the stories array.

| Property | Description | | ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | url | The url of the resource, be it image or video. | | type | Optional. Type of the story. type: 'video' | 'image'. Type video is necessary for a video story. | | duration | Optional. Duration for which a story should persist. | | header | Optional. Adds a header on the top. Object with heading, subheading and profileImage properties. | | seeMore | Optional. Adds a see more icon at the bottom of the story. On clicking, opens up this component. (v2: updated to Function instead of element) | | seeMoreCollapsed | Optional. Send custom component to be rendered instead of the default 'See More' text. | | | styles | Optional. Override the default story styles mentioned below. |

Default story styles

Following are the default story content styles. Override them by providing your own style object with each story or a global override by using the storyStyles prop.

storyContent: {
    width: 'auto',
    maxWidth: '100%',
    maxHeight: '100%',
    margin: 'auto'
}

Renderers

To allow reusable components to display story UI, you can pass in pre-built or custom-built components in a special manner to leverage this behavior. Each renderer object has two properties:

  • renderer - This is the UI component that will be rendered whenever the object matches certain conditions.
  • tester - This is a function that tests whether the renderer is suitable for the current story. It receives the current story object to render and returns an object with two properties:
    • condition - This states if the renderer matches the current story's criteria (a boolean).
    • priority - A number denoting the priority of the current renderer. E.g. priority of 2 is less than a 5, and if two renderers have condition = true, their priorities will be compared and the one with higher priority will be selected.

So essentially a simple renderer would look like this: (you may also refer the inbuilt Image renderer)

// Renderer.js

export const renderer = ({ story, action, isPaused, config }) => {
	return <div>Hello!</div>;
};

export const tester = (story) => {
	return {
		// Use this renderer only when the story type is video
		condition: story.type === 'video',
		priority: 3,
	};
};

Every renderer component gets 4 props as shown above. Out of these the story, action and isPaused are as their names suggest. The config object contains certain global properties which were passed while initialising the component. It looks like this:

const { width, height, loader, storyStyles } = config;

These props can be used to customize the entire UI as required, and then can be packaged as a Node module and shared. If someone else wishes to use your package as a renderer, they can simply pass it inside an array as the renderers prop to the main component. If you publish any such renderer, please raise a PR to add it to this list. A few suggestions would be a Markdown renderer, highlighted code renderer, etc.

Higher Order Components

WithSeeMore

This is a wrapper component which includes the UI and logic for displaying a 'See More' link at the bottom of the story. This is available as a named export from the package and can be used to easily add the functionality to a custom content story. It takes in two props - story and action.

const { WithSeeMore } from 'react-insta-stories';

const CustomStoryContent = ({ story, action }) => {
	return <WithSeeMore story={story} action={action}>
		<div>
			<h1>Hello!</h1>
			<p>This story would have a 'See More' link at the bottom ✨</p>
		</div>
	</WithSeeMore>
}

You can also send custom 'See More' component for the collapsed state. While using WithSeeMore, pass in a customCollapsed prop with a value of your custom component. It will receive a toggleMore and action prop to handle clicks on the See More link.

const { WithSeeMore } from 'react-insta-stories';

const customCollapsedComponent = ({ toggleMore, action }) =>
	<h2 onClick={() => {
		action('pause');
		window.open('https://mywebsite.url', '_blank');
	}}>
		Go to Website
	</h2>

const CustomStoryContent = ({ story, action }) => {
	return <WithSeeMore
		story={story}
		action={action}
		customCollapsed={customCollapsedComponent}
	>
		<div>
			<h1>Hello!</h1>
			<p>This story would have a 'See More' link at the bottom and will open a URL in a new tab.</p>
		</div>
	</WithSeeMore>
}

If not implementing a custom UI, you can send the customCollapsedComponent component inside the story object as seeMoreCollapsed.

const stories = [
	{
		url: 'some.url',
		seeMore: SeeMoreComponent, // when expanded
		seeMoreCollapsed: customCollapsedComponent, // when collapsed
	},
];

WithHeader

This named export can be used to include the header UI on any custom story. Simply wrap the component with this HOC and pass in some props.

const { WithHeader } from 'react-insta-stories';

const CustomStoryContent = ({ story, config }) => {
	return <WithHeader story={story} globalHeader={config.header}>
		<div>
			<h1>Hello!</h1>
			<p>This story would have the configured header!</p>
		</div>
	</WithHeader>
}

You may also use both these HOCs together, as in the Image renderer.

Common Usage

1. Basic implementation with string URLs

If you wish to have a bare minimum setup and only need to show image stories, you can simply pass the image urls inside the stories array. This will show all your images as stories.

import Stories from 'react-insta-stories';

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	'data:image/jpg;base64,R0lGODl....',
	'https://mohitkarekar.com/icon.png',
];

return () => <Stories stories={stories} />;

2. Customising stories

If plain images does not suffice your usecase, you can pass an object instead of a string. This object supports all the properties mentioned above in the section story object. While using the object type, use url to denote the source url in case of media.

These properties can be mixed in different ways to obtain desired output.

Duration

Each story can be set to have a different duration.

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		url: 'https://example.com/pic2.jpg',
		duration: 5000,
	},
];
Header

Adds a header to the story.

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		url: 'https://example.com/pic2.jpg',
		duration: 5000,
		header: {
			heading: 'Mohit Karekar',
			subheading: 'Posted 30m ago',
			profileImage: 'https://picsum.photos/100/100',
		},
	},
];
See More

Adds a click to see more option at the bottom of the story. When present, shows the arrow at the bottom and when clicked, shows the provided component.

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		url: 'https://example.com/pic2.jpg',
		duration: 5000,
		seeMore: SeeMore, // some component
	},
	{
		url: 'https://example.com/pic3.jpg',
		duration: 2000,
		seeMore: ({ close }) => {
			return <div onClick={close}>Hello, click to close this.</div>;
		},
	},
];
Type

If provided type: video, then the component loads a video player. All expected features come in automatically. Duration is ignored, if provided and actual video duration is considered.

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		url: 'https://example.com/vid.mp4',
		duration: 5000, // ignored
		type: 'video',
	},
];
Styles

Override default story element styles. Regular style object can be provided.

3. Custom JSX as a story

You can render custom JSX inside a story by sending a content property inside the story object. If a content property is present, all other media related properties are ignored. duration holds true here.

const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		content: (props) => (
			<div style={{ background: 'pink', padding: 20 }}>
				<h1 style={{ marginTop: '100%', marginBottom: 0 }}>🌝</h1>
				<h1 style={{ marginTop: 5 }}>A custom title can go here.</h1>
			</div>
		),
	},
];

The content property can hold any React component. For further control, it receives two important props:

  • action It allows you to fire play/pause actions.
  • isPaused Holds true is the story is currently paused, false otherwise.
const stories = [
	'https://example.com/pic.jpg',
	{
		content: ({ action, isPaused }) => {
			useEffect(() => {
				setTimeout(() => {
					action('pause');
					setTimeout(() => {
						action('play');
					}, 2000);
				}, 2000);
			}, []);
			return (
				<div style={{ background: 'pink', padding: 20 }}>
					<h1 style={{ marginTop: '100%', marginBottom: 0 }}>🌝</h1>
					<h1>{isPaused ? 'Paused' : 'Playing'}</h1>
				</div>
			);
		},
	},
];

In the code above, on render a timeout will be set which would fire a 'pause' action after 2 seconds. Again after 2 seconds, a 'play' action would be fired. In the JSX, isPaused is used to display the current play state.

Development
