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

angular-django-rest-resource

An AngularJS module that provides a resource-generation service similar to ngResource, but optimized for the Django REST Framework. The biggest features:

  • Trailing slashes allowed in the resource URLs per the Django community norm.
  • The isArray methods like query allow for paginated responses. The pages will be streamed into the promise object.

Installation

Download angular-django-rest-resource.js and put it in your project. You may also do it the bower way:

bower install angular-django-rest-resource

Usage

Do this somewhere in your application HTML:

<script src="angular-django-rest-resource.js"></script>

Add this AngularJS module as a dependency to your AngularJS application:

angular.module('app', [..., 'djangoRESTResources']);

(where 'app' is whatever you've named your AngularJS application).

In your controllers and anything that needs to interact with the Django REST Framework services, inject the djResource service. Then you can create class-like objects that represent (and interact with) your Django REST Framework resources:

var Poll = djResource('/polls/:pollId/', {pollId:'@id'});

var myPoll = Poll.get({pollId:86}, function() {
    myPoll.readByUser = true;
    myPoll.$save();
});

For complete API, consider the documentation for $resource, as this module follows the API quite closely.

Launching The Testing and Demonstration App

This is a work in progress, but it gives some hints on usage in a real world scenario.

  1. Create a Python virtualenv.

  2. Install the dependencies:

     cd test
     pip install -r requirements.txt
  3. Set up the database and fixtures (if first time use).

     python manage.py syncdb
  4. Run the server:

     python manage.py runserver
  5. Point web browser to http://localhost:8000/.
