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 🙏

An iterator abstraction for async operations

Readme

threadpool.js Build Status npm version

An iterator abstraction for async operations

Install

npm install --save async-iterable

Usage (ES6 + modules + async/await)

import AsyncIterable from 'async-iterable'

// Create an infinite number generator (for the iteration seed)
function* infiniteNumGen() {
  var index = 0
  while (true)
    yield index++
}

// Create the AsyncIterable.
// note that defining an AsyncIterator is an immediate sync operation,
// none of the callbacks below will be called before it is iterated
let repoNamesEndingWithJsAsyncIterable = new AsyncIterable(infiniteNumGen())
  // (you can define sync or async data transformations)
  .map(async (n) => {
    let res = await axios.get(`https://api.github.com/repositories?since=${n}`)
    return res.data[0].name
  })
  // (you can define sync or async data filters)
  .filter((name) => name.endsWith('js'))
  // (you can define max items count)
  .take(1000000)

// Iterate the AsyncIterator.
let firstMillionJsGithubRepoNames = new Set()
await repoNamesEndingWithJsAsyncIterable.forEach((name) => {
  // requests will fire here, one before each iteration
  firstMillionJsGithubRepoNames.add(name)
})
 

Usage (ES6 + modules + async/await + babel-plugin-transform-async-generator-functions)

AsyncIterable is also iterable via the new tc39 async-iteration proposal syntex (for now, the babel plugin 'babel-plugin-transform-async-generator-functions' is required to support this syntex)

import AsyncIterable from 'async-iterable'

// Create the AsyncIterable.
let repoNamesEndingWithJsAsyncIterable = new AsyncIterable([1, 2, 3])
  .map(async (n) => {
    let res = await axios.get(`https://api.github.com/repositories?since=${n}`)
    return res.data[0].name
  })

// Iterate the AsyncIterator using the tc39 async-iteration proposal syntex
for await (const name of repoNamesEndingWithJsAsyncIterable) {
  console.log(name);
}
