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 🙏

Check-Host

check-host is a Node.js package that provides an API interface for interacting with Check-Host.net. This package allows you to perform various types of checks (such as HTTP, Ping, TCP, DNS) and use available nodes for testing.

Installation

You can install the package using npm:

npm install check-host

Usage

Import Classes

const { CheckHost, CheckContent } = require('check-host');

Setting Up CheckHost

  1. Create an instance of CheckHost:

    const CH = new CheckHost();
  2. Load the list of nodes:

    CH.loadNodes().then(() => {
      /* Set the URL to check and choose the desired check type */
      CH.SetUrl('google.com:443');
    
      /* Start the check using TcpCheck with specified nodes */
      CH.SCAN(CheckContent.TcpCheck, (results) => {
        console.log('Done Scan results:');
        console.log(results);
      });
    });

Available Checks

1. HTTP Check

Example:

CH.SCAN(CheckContent.HttpCheck, (results) => {
  console.log('Done Scan results:');
  console.log(results);
});

2. Ping Check

Example:

CH.SCAN(CheckContent.PingCheck, (results) => {
  console.log('Done Scan results:');
  console.log(results);
});

3. TCP Check

Example:

CH.SCAN(CheckContent.TcpCheck, (results) => {
  console.log('Done Scan results:');
  console.log(results);
});

4. DNS Check

Example:

CH.SCAN(CheckContent.DnsCheck, (results) => {
  console.log('Done Scan results:');
  console.log(results);
});

Available Check Functions

  • HttpCheck(url, nodes): HTTP check for the specified URL with the given nodes.
  • PingCheck(host, nodes): Ping check for the specified host with the given nodes.
  • TcpCheck(host, nodes): TCP check for the specified host with the given nodes.
  • DnsCheck(host, nodes): DNS check for the specified host with the given nodes.

Setting the URL

Example:

CH.SetUrl('https://npmjs.com');

Check Results

The results will be displayed in a formatted manner based on the type of check performed.

Node List

You can load the list of available nodes using the loadNodes() method in CheckHost. This list is used to specify which nodes you want to use for the checks.

Example:

CH.loadNodes().then(() => {
  console.log('Nodes loaded:', CH.nodes);
});
