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 🙏

async-stack

Async-to-sync queue stack process management - the simplest way possible.

Install: npm install async-stack

Usage:

	// ADD THE MODULE
	var asyncstack = require("async-stack"),  // A Class allowing multiple independent instances.
		Stack = new asyncstack(), // this instance of 'asyncstack'.
		self = this,
		self.sql = {};

	// BUILD THE STACK
	Stack.push(
		function(){
			// On this one, don't call 'next()' until end of inside the mysql callback!
			mysql.query('select some_data from some_table', function(err, result, fields){
				if (err) { throw err; return; }

				// Make the result accessible to the rest of this page
				self.sql.sql1 = result;
				// This would be something like:
				// {
				//		companyname: 'Stack Devs, LLC',
				//		firstname: 'John',
				//		lastname: 'Smith',
				// }

				// NOTE: We passed 'false' 2nd param to Stack.push()
				// Manually call next now that we are ready.
				Stack.next();
			});
		}
		,false  // Passing second param [false] prevents auto-call of .next(), now it must be called manually!
	);
	Stack.push(
		function(){
			// Header
			var header_html = "<!DOCTYPE html><html><head></head><body><header><div class="bold"><span class="data_companyname">{{companyname}}</span></div><br /><br />Welcome, <span class="data_firstname">{{firstname}}</span></header><section>"; // Get/Set your hearder html somehow
			// Then parse/template/dynamic content from sql1 into the html
			// ...
			// ...

			response.write(header_html);
		}
	);
	Stack.push(
		function(){
			// body content
			var body_html = "<b>This would be page header content!</b>"; // Get/Set your hearder html somehow

			// then parse/template/dynamic content with some middleware to insert data from sql1 into the html

			response.write(body_html);
		}
	);
	Stack.push(
		function(){
			// Footer
			var footer_html = "</section><footer>&copy;<span class="data_companyname">{{companyname}}</span> All rights reserved. "; // Get/Set your hearder html somehow
			// Then parse/template/dynamic content from sql1 into the html
			// ...
			// ...

			response.write(footer_html);
		}
	);
	Stack.pushfinish(
		function(){
			response.end();
		}
	);


	// NOTES:
	// There are two additional features, following traditional array handling:
	//  'unshift()' = pre-pend a function to the front/top of the main stack
	//  'unshiftfinish()' = pre-pend a function to the front/top of the finish stack

	// Read the asycn-stack.js code for a number of additional accessors to get the stask lengths,
	//  the current index, isstarted, and isfinished flags of your stack.


	// Make it all happen!
	// Trigger the Stack calls
	Stack.start();


	// Now, go make it better.
