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 🙏

Thanks Contributors!

This little script accesses GitHub's API to get all contributors and their PRs between two distinct points in the history of commits. This is helpful for changelogs where you'd want to list all contributions for that release (so e.g. changes between v1 and v1.1).

Usage

npx @lekoarts/thanks-contributors [OPTIONS] <BASE> <HEAD> [OWNER] [REPO]

First, it get's the list of commits between base...head (equivalent to git log base..head), then parses their authors and creates a markdown list of each contributor and their contribution.

Usage: @lekoarts/thanks-contributors [OPTIONS] <BASE> <HEAD> [OWNER] [REPO]

Arguments:
  <BASE>
          Pointer from where to start looking for changes

  <HEAD>
          Pointer until where to stop looking for changes

  [OWNER]
          Name of the owner/user/organization of the repository

          [default: gatsbyjs]

  [REPO]
          Name of the repository

          [default: gatsby]

Options:
  -i, --include-org-members <INCLUDE_ORG_MEMBERS>
          Include organization members into the list [default: false]

          [possible values: true, false]

  -e, --excludes <EXCLUDES>...
          List of members to exclude from the list. Usage: -e=member1,member2 [default: "renovate-bot", "renovate[bot]"]

  -v, --verbose...
          More output per occurrence

  -q, --quiet...
          Less output per occurrence

  -h, --help
          Print help information (use `-h` for a summary)

You must have an environment variable called GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN either exported in your CLI or defined inside an .env file in the directory you're running the CLI in.

The script automatically excludes the members of the organization ("owner" in this case). If you want to exclude specific users, you'll need to provide the --excludes flag.

You can use the options -v to -vvvv to display additional logging (warnings, info, debug, trace).

The results are stored inside a output folder in the current directory.

Example

npx @lekoarts/thanks-contributors [email protected] [email protected] gatsbyjs gatsby

Resulting output

It'll create a markdown list, grouped by user login. If a person had more than one commit, it creates a nested list. Example:

- [harry](https://www.github.com/harry): Update something [PR #1](https://github.com/foobar/pull/1)
- [hermione](https://www.github.com/hermione)
  - Update something [PR #2](https://github.com/foobar/pull/2)
  - Update something more [PR #3](https://github.com/foobar/pull/3)

If the url can't be found only the name will be printed.

Caveats

  • Getting the PR number only works if you consistently add the number in the commit itself, e.g. in feat: My cool feature (#123). This automatically happens in GitHub's UI if you use squash commits.
