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 🙏

OpenCensus Core Node.js

Gitter chat Node Version NPM Published Version dependencies Status devDependencies Status Apache License

OpenCensus for Node.js is an implementation of OpenCensus, a toolkit for collecting application performance and behavior monitoring data. It currently includes 3 apis: stats, tracing and tags.

The library is in alpha stage and the API is subject to change.

Installation

Install the opencensus-core package with NPM:

npm install @opencensus/core

Usage

Get the global Stats manager instance.

To enable metrics, we’ll import a few items from OpenCensus Core package.

const { globalStats, MeasureUnit, AggregationType, TagMap } = require('@opencensus/core');

// The latency in milliseconds
const mLatencyMs = globalStats.createMeasureDouble(
  "repl/latency",
  MeasureUnit.MS,
  "The latency in milliseconds"
);

Create Views and Tags:

We now determine how our metrics will be organized by creating Views. We will also create the variable needed to add extra text meta-data to our metrics – methodTagKey, statusTagKey, and errorTagKey.

const methodTagKey = { name: "method" };
const statusTagKey = { name: "status" };
const errorTagKey = { name: "error" };

// Create & Register the view.
const latencyView = globalStats.createView(
  "demo/latency",
  mLatencyMs,
  AggregationType.DISTRIBUTION,
  [methodTagKey, statusTagKey, errorTagKey],
  "The distribution of the latencies",
  // Bucket Boundaries:
  // [>=0ms, >=25ms, >=50ms, >=75ms, >=100ms, >=200ms, >=400ms, >=600ms, >=800ms, >=1s, >=2s, >=4s, >=6s]
  [0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 2000, 4000, 6000]
);
globalStats.registerView(latencyView);

Recording Metrics:

Now we will record the desired metrics. To do so, we will use globalStats.record() and pass in measurements.

const [_, startNanoseconds] = process.hrtime();
const tags = new TagMap();
tags.set(methodTagKey, { value: "REPL" });
tags.set(statusTagKey, { value: "OK" });

globalStats.record([{
  measure: mLatencyMs,
  value: sinceInMilliseconds(startNanoseconds)
}], tags);

function sinceInMilliseconds(startNanoseconds) {
  const [_, endNanoseconds] = process.hrtime();
  return (endNanoseconds - startNanoseconds) / 1e6;
}

Measures can be of type Int64 or DOUBLE, created by calling createMeasureInt64 and createMeasureDouble respectively. Its units can be:

| MeasureUnit | Usage | | ----------- | ----- | | UNIT | for general counts | | BYTE | bytes | | KBYTE | Kbytes | | SEC | seconds | | MS | millisecond | | NS | nanosecond |

Views can have agregations of type SUM, LAST_VALUE, COUNT and DISTRIBUTION. To know more about Stats core concepts, please visit: https://opencensus.io/core-concepts/metrics/

See Quickstart/Metrics for a full example of registering and collecting metrics.
