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 🙏

Readme

xplane-websocket-proxy

A basic websocket to X-Plane Legacy UDP proxy written in node; this proxy makes it easy to talk to X-Plane from a Javascript application such as the Stream Deck plugin I'm also working on.

When started, this listens on localhost:8080 (TCP) for websocket connections, and talks to X-Plane on localhost:49000 (UDP).

Installation

The easy way

Grab the latest executable for your platform from https://github.com/Leeft/xplane-node-udp-client/releases. Place it anywhere you like, and run it. Windows, MacOS and Linux binaries are included, but only Windows is tested right now.

A window will open which will echo the instructions that are received; as this is project is in early stages this can not currently be disabled nor can anything be configured.

You can't directly do anything with this; use my Stream Deck plugin to talk to your X-Plane.

Hit control-C (or command-C) to stop the server.

For development

Install node (https://nodejs.org) for your platform, clone this repository and run npm install in its directory; this will install all dependencies you need to run it manually.

I recommend the free Visual Studio Code with the appropriate extensions as a good development tool.

Run node server.js to start the server, run node client.js to start a quick and dirty test client. See inside that script for a bit more information on what it does.

Includes my little library https://github.com/Leeft/xplane-node-udp-client to talk to X-Plane.

Running this server is currently required for my Stream Deck plugin https://github.com/Leeft/streamdeck-xplane to work.
