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 🙏

This module provides boilerplate for setting up a menubar application using Electron. All you have to do is point it at your index.html and menubar will handle the rest.

✅ Only one dependency, and one peer-dependency.

✅ Works on macOS, Windows and most Linuxes. See details.

✅ 💥 3.6kB minified + gzipped 💥

| | | | | :-----------------------------------------------------------: | :--------------------------------------------------------: | :------------------------------------------------------: | | macOS Mojave 10.14 | Windows 10 | Ubuntu 18.04 |

Installation

yarn add menubar

Usage

Starting with your own new project, run these commands:

$ yarn add menubar
$ touch myApp.js
$ touch index.html

Fill index.html with some HTML, and myApp.js like this:

const { menubar } = require('menubar');

const mb = menubar();

mb.on('ready', () => {
  console.log('app is ready');
  // your app code here
});

Then use electron to run the app:

$ electron myApp.js

Alternatively, see examples/hello-world folder for a simple working example.

Menubar Class

The return value of menubar() is a Menubar class instance, which has these properties:

  • app: the Electron App instance,
  • window: the Electron Browser Window instance,
  • tray: the Electron Tray instance,
  • positioner: the Electron Positioner instance,
  • setOption(option, value): change an option after menubar is created,
  • getOption(option): get an menubar option,
  • showWindow(): show the menubar window,
  • hideWindow(): hide the menubar window

See the reference API docs.

menubar() Options

You can pass an optional options object into the menubar({ ... }) function:

  • dir (default process.cwd()) - the app source directory
  • index (default file:// + opts.dir + index.html) - The URL to load the menubar's browserWindow with. The url can be a remote address (e.g. http://) or a path to a local HTML file using the file:// protocol.
  • browserWindow - BrowserWindow options to be passed to the BrowserWindow constructor, see Electron docs. Some interesting fields to passed down are:
    • x (default undefined) - the x position of the window
    • y (default undefined) - the y position of the window
    • width (default 400) - window width
    • height (default 400) - window height
    • alwaysOnTop (default false) - if true, the window will not hide on blur
  • icon (default opts.dir + IconTemplate.png) - the png icon to use for the menubar. A good size to start with is 20x20. To support retina, supply a 2x sized image (e.g. 40x40) with @2x added to the end of the name, so icon.png and [email protected] and Electron will automatically use your @2x version on retina screens.
  • tooltip (default empty) - menubar tray icon tooltip text
  • tray (default created on-the-fly) - an electron Tray instance. if provided opts.icon will be ignored
  • preloadWindow (default false) - Create BrowserWindow instance before it is used -- increasing resource usage, but making the click on the menubar load faster.
  • loadUrlOptions - (default undefined) The options passed when loading the index URL in the menubar's browserWindow. Everything browserWindow.loadURL supports is supported; this object is simply passed onto browserWindow.loadURL
  • showOnAllWorkspaces (default true) - Makes the window available on all OS X workspaces.
  • windowPosition (default trayCenter and trayBottomCenter on Windows) - Sets the window position (x and y will still override this), check positioner docs for valid values.
  • showDockIcon (default false) - Configure the visibility of the application dock icon.
  • showOnRightClick (default false) - Show the window on 'right-click' event instead of regular 'click'

See the reference API docs.

Events

The Menubar class is an event emitter:

  • ready - when menubar's tray icon has been created and initialized, i.e. when menubar is ready to be used. Note: this is different than Electron app's ready event, which happens much earlier in the process
  • create-window - the line before new BrowserWindow() is called
  • before-load - after create window, before loadUrl (can be used for require("@electron/remote/main").enable(webContents))
  • after-create-window - the line after all window init code is done and url was loaded
  • show - the line before window.show() is called
  • after-show - the line after window.show() is called
  • hide - the line before window.hide() is called (on window blur)
  • after-hide - the line after window.hide() is called
  • after-close - after the .window (BrowserWindow) property has been deleted
  • focus-lost - emitted if always-on-top option is set and the user clicks away

Tips

  • Use mb.on('after-create-window', callback) to run things after your app has loaded. For example you could run mb.window.openDevTools() to open the developer tools for debugging, or load a different URL with mb.window.loadURL()
  • Use mb.on('focus-lost') if you would like to perform some operation when using the option browserWindow.alwaysOnTop: true
  • To restore focus of previous window after menubar hide, use mb.on('after-hide', () => { mb.app.hide() } ) or similar
  • To create a native menu, you can use tray.setContextMenu(contextMenu), and pass this custom tray to menubar: const mb = menubar({ tray });. See this example for more information.
  • To avoid a flash when opening your menubar app, you can disable backgrounding the app using the following: mb.app.commandLine.appendSwitch('disable-backgrounding-occluded-windows', 'true');
