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 🙏

RemoteData

A Fork of remote-data-ts

Description

RemoteData is an ADT (algebraic data type) described in this article. Heavily based on fp-ts lib.

How is this different from devex-web-frontend/remote-data-ts?

  • The main difference is the addition of another type in the union: RemoteRefresh which captures the state where you have data, but you are refreshing it from your remote data source.
  • Did some reorganizing of the code for personal ergonomics.

Installation

npm i --save @scotttrinh/remote-data-ts

How to lift (wrap) your data in RemoteData:

RemoteData is an union of few types: RemoteInitial, RemotePending, RemoteFailure, RemoteRefresh, and RemoteSuccess.

While your data in initial or pending state just use the initial or pending constant.

import { initial, pending } from '@scotttrinh/remote-data-ts';

const customers = initial;
// or
const customers = pending;

When you receive data from server, use the failure or success constructor:

import { failure, success } from '@scotttrinh/remote-data-ts';
import { apiClient } from 'apiClient';
import { TCustomer } from './MyModel';

const getCustomers = (): RemoteData<Error, TCustomer[]> => {
   const rawData: TCustomer[] = apiClient.get('/customers');

   try {
        const length = rawData.length;

        return success(rawData);
   }
   catch(err) {
        return failure(new Error('parse error'));
   }
}

When you need to re-fetch or refresh your data, use the refresh constructor.

How to fold (unwrap) your data from RemoteData:

Finally you pass data to the component and want to render values, so now it's time to get our values back from RemoteData wrapper:

import { NoData, Pending, Failure } from './MyPlaceholders';
import { TCustomer } from './MyModel';

type TCustomersList = {
    entities: RemoteData<TCustomer[]>;
};

const CustomersList: SFC<TCustomersList> = ({ entities }) => entities.foldL(
    () => <NoData />,
    () => <Pending />,
    err => <Failure error={err} />,
    stale => <Refreshing oldItems={stale} />
    data => <ul>{data.map(item => <li>{item.name}</li>)}</ul>
);
