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 🙏

Algebraic graphs implementation in TypeScript

npm Build Status

alga-ts is a library for algebraic construction and manipulation of graphs in TypeScript. This is a TypeScript port of alga and alga-scala.

See this Haskell Symposium paper and the corresponding talk for the motivation behind the library, the underlying theory and implementation details. There is also a Haskell eXchange talk, and a tutorial by Alexandre Moine.

N.B. Please note that this project is WIP, so use it at your own discretion.

Installation

The main library, alga-ts, is available at the NPM. As it uses fp-ts for higher-kinded types, be sure to install it as well:

npm install --save alga-ts fp-ts

Usage

To begin using alga-ts, you first need to obtain an instance of it's API for the given Eq of your target data type. Consider the example:

import { getStructEq, eqNumber, eqString } from 'fp-ts/lib/Eq';
import { getInstanceFor } from 'alga-ts';

interface User {
  name: string;
  age: number;
}

const eqUser = getStructEq({
  name: eqString,
  age: eqNumber,
});

const G = getInstanceFor(eqUser);

Now G is a module containing all methods & constructors required to work with graphs of User:

const user1: User = { name: 'Alice', age: 32 };
const user2: User = { name: 'Bob', age: 41 };
const user3: User = { name: 'Charlie', age: 28 };

const graph1 = G.connect(
  G.edge(user1, user2),
  G.edge(user2, user3),
);

console.log(G.hasEdge(user1, user3, graph1)); // => true

Pipeable graphs

Algbraic graphs happen to have type class instances for Monad (and, consequently, for Functor and Applicative) and Alternative. API instance, obtained via getInstanceFor, exposes methods from these type classes in a data-last form, so they could be used with pipe from fp-ts:

import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/lib/pipeable';
import { getInstanceFor } from 'alga-ts';

const GS = getInstanceFor(eqString);

...

const graph2 = pipe(
  graph1,
  G.map(u => u.name),
);

console.log(GS.hasEdge('Alice', 'Charlie', graph2)); // => true
