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

@intouchgroup/image-accessibility-tester

Image Accessibility Tester is a tool to automatically scrape images and image accessibility data from websites, and write the findings to an Excel workbook or JSON report.

The tool makes multiple requests simultaneously, can handle HTTP or HTTPS domains, allows passing a prefix for a list of domains, and is capable of scraping sites which require Authentication.

Installation

You must have NodeJS version 12+ installed to use this module.

To check what version of NodeJS you have, launch Terminal on Mac or Powershell on Windows and type node -v.

Once you have NodeJS 12+, globally install the latest version of this module from Terminal or Powershell:

npm i -g @intouchgroup/image-accessibility-tester

You can now run the Image Accessibility Tester from any folder on your computer using Terminal or Powershell.

Usage

When you open Terminal or Powershell, you will see a file path listed in the prompt. This is the current location of your Terminal or Powershell.

You can change locations using the cd FILE_PATH command. cd stands for "change directory" (go to a different folder), and is how you navigate using Terminal or Powershell.

  1. Using Terminal or Powershell, navigate to the folder where you want to save the Image Accessibility Tester reports. For example: cd Desktop/Reports

  2. Now run the Image Accessibility Tester tool from Terminal or Powershell with whatever arguments you want. For example: image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com

Arguments

Arguments are how we tell image-accessibility-tester what to do. Some arguments are required, while others are completely optional. Arguments can be passed in any order, but the value must come right after the argument text. For example:

image-accessibility-tester --argument "This is the value of the argument"

A full list of available arguments with examples is presented below.

| Short name | Long name | What it does | |--------------|--------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------| | -h | --help | Shows all available arguments | | -s | --sites | Comma-separated list of URLs to scrape | | -p | --prefix | Prefix text for all site URLs without a protocol | | -r | --protocol | Protocol text for all site URLs without a protocol | | -a | --auth | Username and password for site URLs that require auth | | -n | --concurrent | Number of requests to make simultaneously (default: 5) | | -j | -json | Generate JSON report | | -x | --xlsx | Generate XLSX report | | -f | --filename | Manually set the name of the generated report |

Examples

1. Generate an Excel report for multiple sites:

image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com,google.com -x

Tests ht​tps://intouchsol.com and ht​tps://google.com

2. Generate a JSON report for multiple staging sites:

image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com,google.com -p "staging." -j

Tests ht​tps://staging.intouchsol.com and ht​tps://staging.google.com

3. Generate an Excel report for multiple staging sites with different protocols:

image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com,https://google.com -p "staging." -r "http://" -x

Tests ht​tp://staging.intouchsol.com and ht​tps://google.com

4. Generate an Excel report named "MyBestReportYet":

image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com -x -f "MyBestReportYet"

Tests ht​tps://intouchsol.com

5. Authentication login info must be in the format username:password:

image-accessibility-tester -s private.intouchsol.com -x -a "joe.smith:Password123!"

Tests ht​tps://private.intouchsol.com with authentication

6. Use short or long names for arguments. These commands are exactly equivalent:

image-accessibility-tester -s intouchsol.com -x -r "http://" -f "MyBestReportYet"

image-accessibility-tester --sites intouchsol.com --excel --protocol "http://" --filename "MyBestReportYet"
