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 🙏

Event-driven alternative to React Context

npm i @nucleoidjs/synapses

Synapses is an alternative to React Context with event-driven style communication that helps to build loosely coupled components.

How it works?

Subscribers are registered an event with the custom hook useEvent(eventType, initialValue), once publisher posts an event and its payload, Synapses asynchronously sends the event to subscribed components and subscribed components will eventually be re-rendered with fresh data.

Example:

import { publish } from "@nucleoidjs/synapses";

const PublishComponent = () => {
  return (
      <button
          onClick={() => {
            publish("BUTTON_CLICKED", { number: 11, string: "red" });
          }}
      >
        Button
      </button>
  );
};
import { useEvent } from "@nucleoidjs/synapses";

const Component1 = () => {
  const [event] = useEvent("BUTTON_CLICKED", { number: 10 });

  return <div>{event.number}</div>;
};
import { useEvent } from "@nucleoidjs/synapses";

const Component2 = () => {
  const [event] = useEvent("BUTTON_CLICKED", { string: "blue" });

  return <div>{event.string}</div>;
};

The complete sample project is here.

Stateless Handling

Synapses supports stateless components with caching last published payload for the event type, so that if the component is re-rendered, it won't lose the payload. For example, Component 3 in this example is not re-rendered yet, but Synapses holds the last payload for the event type, and once the component is rendered, it returns the payload instead of initial value.

Event-driven Architecture

Event-driven Architecture is commonly used in Microservices systems that pretty much targets similar problem; loose coupling. This style of architecture require middleware like Kafka, RabbitMQ etc. and we are trying to adopt the very same idea to React.js, of course with some modification such as "Stateless Handling".

API

const [ event ] = useEvent ( eventType , initialValue )

React Hook is to subscribe an event. If there is no event posted yet, it returns initialValue, otherwise, returns last published payload for the event type from cache.

publish ( eventType, payload )

Publish function to post ane event and its payload.

subscribe ( type , callback )

Subscribe function acts like useEvent for non-React JavaScript.
