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 🙏

API

Constants

useEventListener

Listen for a specified event and run a callback when it occurs

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | ------- | ------------------------ | ------------------------------------- | | type | String | Type of the event to listen for | | handler | function | Callback to run when the event occurs | | target | EventTarget | DOM element to attach the listener to |

Example

useEventListener(`click`, event => {
  console.log(`Clicked on ${event.target}`);
});

Example

useEventListener(
  `focus`,
  event => {
    console.log(`Input was focused`);
  },
  myInput
);

useMount

Run a callback only on initial mount, but not on rerenders

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | ------ | --------------------- | ---------------------- | | effect | function | Effect callback to run |

Example

useMount(() => {
  fetchExtraResources();
});

useObjectState

On setState, deep-merge old and new state objects. This resembles React.Component's this.setState, but with deep merging instead of shallow merging

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | ------------ | ------------------- | ------------- | | initialState | Object | Initial state |

Example

const [state, setState] = useObjectState({
  name: {
    first: `Jonas`,
    middle: `Ben`,
    last: `Gierer`,
  },
  age: 4,
});

setState({
  name: {
    middle: ``,
  },
  age: 20,
});

console.log(state);
// {
//    name: {
//      first: `Jonas`,
//      middle: ``,
//      last: `Gierer`,
//    },
//    age: 20,
// }

usePersistentState

useState while persisting the state to localStorage across sessions

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | ------------ | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | key | String | The key under which the value should be stored | | initialValue | * | Fallback initial value. Will be overwritten by value from localStorage if available |

Example

const [name, setName] = usePersistentState(`name`, `Mike`);
setName(`Jonas`); // `name` will be initialized to `Jonas` instead of `Mike` in all future sessions

useRerender

Run a callback only on rerenders (if dependencies changed), but not on initial mount

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | ------ | --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | effect | function | Effect callback to run | | deps | Array | Dependencies. Will be passed through to useEffect |

Example

useRerender(() => {
  props.onChange(value);
}, [value]);

useTimeout

Run a callback function after waiting for a specified duration

Kind: global constant

| Param | Type | Description | | --------- | --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | callback | function | Callback to run after the timeout | | ms | Number | Time to wait in milliseconds | | deps | Array | Dependencies. Will be passed through to useEffect | | useEffect | function | Function to use instead of React.useEffect |

Example

useTimeout(
  () => {
    console.log(`2 seconds have passed since the component was mounted`);
  },
  2000,
  null,
  useMount
);

Example

useTimeout(() => {
  console.log(
    `100 milliseconds have passed since the component was last rendered`
  );
}, 100);

Example

useTimeout(
  () => {
    console.log(`0.5 seconds have passed since myVar was last changed`);
  },
  500,
  [myVar],
  useRerender
);
