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 🙏

Log Changed Properties in a React Component

This HOC (High Order Component) will wrap an existing class or function component and track properties that changed.

This is useful if you're building a memoized component but it keeps rendering and you want to know the property that is causing that.

It's meant to be used during development, production builds should remove it.

Example

import withPropsChangeLogger from '@profusion/with-props-change-logger';

function MyComponent(props: { a: number[] }) {
  return (
    <div>{JSON.stringify(a)}</div>
  );
}

const LoggedComponent = withPropsChangeLogger(MyComponent);

function OtherComponent() {
  return (
    <LoggedComponent a={[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]}>
  );
}

When changed (say from [1234] to [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]), produces:

PROP CHANGED: SimpleComponent a from:
	[1234]
to:
	[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]
PROP RE-RENDERED DUE PROPS: SimpleComponent

NOTE: objects (including arrays) and functions are compared just like React does, using a shallow comparison! It doesn't matter if the properties, array elements or the function body are the same, if the instance is different, they will be logged. Be sure to keep it stable (ie: using the old instances) with useMemo(), useRef() or useCallback().

Verbosity

If you find the amount of information too verbose, you may want to provide verbose: false and it will show only the typeof result, such as:

const LoggedComponent = withPropsChangeLogger(MyComponent, {
  verbose: false,
});

Produces:

PROP CHANGED: SimpleComponent a from: object to: object
PROP RE-RENDERED DUE PROPS: SimpleComponent
