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 🙏

Example

import { ArcherContainer, ArcherElement } from 'react-archer';

const rootStyle = { display: 'flex', justifyContent: 'center' };
const rowStyle = { margin: '200px 0', display: 'flex', justifyContent: 'space-between' };
const boxStyle = { padding: '10px', border: '1px solid black' };

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div style={{ height: '500px', margin: '50px' }}>
      <ArcherContainer strokeColor="red">
        <div style={rootStyle}>
          <ArcherElement
            id="root"
            relations={[
              {
                targetId: 'element2',
                targetAnchor: 'top',
                sourceAnchor: 'bottom',
                style: { strokeDasharray: '5,5' },

            id="element2"
            relations={[
              {
                targetId: 'element3',
                targetAnchor: 'left',
                sourceAnchor: 'right',
                style: { strokeColor: 'blue', strokeWidth: 1 },
                label: <div style={{ marginTop: '-20px' }}>Arrow 2</div>,
              },
            ]}
          >
            <div style={boxStyle}>Element 2</div>
          </ArcherElement>

          <ArcherElement id="element3">
            <div style={boxStyle}>Element 3</div>
          </ArcherElement>

          <ArcherElement
            id="element4"
            relations={[
              {
                targetId: 'root',
                targetAnchor: 'right',
                sourceAnchor: 'left',
                label: 'Arrow 3',
              },
            ]}
          >
            <div style={boxStyle}>Element 4</div>

API

ArcherContainer

Props

| Name | Type | Description | | - | - | - | | strokeColor | string | A color string '#ff0000' | strokeWidth | number | A size in px | strokeDasharray | string | Adds dashes to the stroke. It has to be a string representing an array of sizes. See some SVG strokes documentation. | noCurves | boolean | Set this to true if you want angles instead of curves | lineStylestring | Can be one of angle, curve or straight. Setting this overrides noCurves. | offset | number | Optional number for space between element and start/end of stroke | svgContainerStyle | Style | Style of the SVG container element. Useful if you want to add a z-index to your SVG container to draw the arrows under your elements, for example. | children | React.Node | | endShape | Object | An object containing the props to configure the "end shape" of the arrow. Can be one of arrow (default) or circle. See ShapeType for a complete list of available options. | startMarker | boolean | Optional flag (default false) to also add a marker at the start of the arrow. | endMarker | boolean | Optional flag (default true) to remove the marker at the end of the arrow.

Instance methods

If you access to the ref of your ArcherContainer, you will access the refreshScreen method. This will allow you to have more control on when you want to re-draw the arrows.

ArcherElement

| Name | Type | Description | | - | - | - | | id | string | The id that will identify the Archer Element. | children | React.Node \| (ArcherContext) => React.Node | :warning: Must be a single element or a function of the internal context. If you are passing a custom component, it should be wrapped in a div or you should forward the reference (see this) | relations | Relation[] |

The Relation type has the following shape:

{
  targetId: string,
  targetAnchor: 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'right' | 'middle',
  sourceAnchor: 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'right' | 'middle',
  label: React.Node,
  order?: number, // higher order means arrow will be drawn on top of the others
  className?: string, // CSS class selectors on the SVG arrow
  style: ArcherStyle,
}

Please note that the middle anchor does not look very good: the curve won't look nice and the arrow marker will have a little offset. The issue won't be solved before a long time.

The ArcherStyle type has the following shape:

{
  strokeColor: string,
  strokeWidth: number,
  strokeDasharray: number,
  noCurves: boolean,
  lineStyle: string,
  endShape: Object,
  startMarker: boolean,
  endMarker: boolean,
}

Troubleshooting

My arrows don't re-render correctly...

Try using the refreshScreen instance method on your ArcherContainer element. You can access it through the ref of the component.

Call refreshScreen when the event that you need is triggered (onScroll etc.).
