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 🙏

🌱 Zerva useWebSocketRpcHub

This is a side project of Zerva

A reliable way to realize function calls between client and server via web sockets. It is taken care of the infrastucture so you can focus on the functionality.

First step should be to create a shared definition of functions on the server side and the client side. Example:

// functions.ts
export interface RpcClientFunctions {
  updateCounter: (count: number) => void
}

export interface RpcServerFunctions {
  helloIAmNew: (id: string) => number
}

On the server side initialize the zerva module and then listen for rpcConnect like this:

// server.ts

useWebsocketRpcHub()

let clientCounter = 1
on('rpcConnect', async ({ rpcHub, dispose }) => {
  const rpc = rpcHub<RpcServerFunctions, RpcClientFunctions>({
    helloIAmNew(id) {
      log.info('New client with user agent:', id)
      return clientCounter++
    },
  })

  let counter = 0

  dispose.interval(() => {
    rpc.updateCounter(counter++)
  }, 1000)
})

On the client side almost the same but vice-versa:

// client.ts

import { useWebsocketRpcHubClient } from '@zerva/rpc'
import { ref } from 'vue'
import type { RpcClientFunctions, RpcServerFunctions } from './_types'

const { rpcHub } = useWebsocketRpcHubClient()

export const counter = ref(-1)

export const rpc = rpcHub<RpcClientFunctions, RpcServerFunctions>({
  updateCounter(count: number) {
    counter.value = count
  },
})

On both ends use your custom rpc to call functions as defined, await results if desired.

This RPC implementation is designed as a "hub" i.e. you can use the same connection to create multiple rpc definitions and implementations. That becomes handy if you are doing plugin like development.
