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 🙏

i2c

Bindings for i2c-dev. Plays well with Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone.

Based on kelly/node-i2c, converted from CoffeeScript to TypeScript and from callbacks to promises, but with only a subset of the original project's methods.

Install

$ yarn add @jcoreio/i2c

Usage

import I2C from '@jcoreio/i2c'
const i2c = new I2C({ device: '/dev/i2c-1', address: 0x50 })
const OFFSET = 16

// In an async function
const writeData = Buffer.alloc(8)
try {
  await i2c.write(OFFSET, writeData)
  // wait 1 ms before reading back
  await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1))
  // read back
  const readData = await i2c.read(OFFSET, 8)
} finally {
  i2c.close()
}

Raspberry Pi Setup

$ sudo vi /etc/modules

Add these two lines

i2c-bcm2708
i2c-dev
$ sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf

Comment out blacklist i2c-bcm2708

#blacklist i2c-bcm2708

Load kernel module

$ sudo modprobe i2c-bcm2708
$ sudo modprobe i2c-dev

Make device writable

sudo chmod o+rw /dev/i2c*

Install gcc 4.8 (required for Nan)

sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8 g++-4.8
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.6 60 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.6
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 40 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc

Set correct device for version

new I2C({ address, device: '/dev/i2c-0' }) // rev 1
new I2C({ address, device: '/dev/i2c-1' }) // rev 2

Beaglebone

$ ntpdate -b -s -u pool.ntp.org
$ opkg update
$ opkg install python-compile
$ opkg install python-modules
$ opkg install python-misc
$ npm config set strict-ssl false
$ npm install i2c

Node 0.11 and under

npm install [email protected]
