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

Ax.js

A microscopic, RESTful, AJAX browser library; just under 2kb.

Installation:

Ax

var request = new Ax( Object || Arguments); 

Arguments Method

var request = new Ax(method, url, [data], [type], done);

Arguments

  1. method (String): http request (e.g., GET, PUT, POST, PATCH, DELETE, etc...)
  2. url (String): location/href
  3. [data] (Object|JSON): required if uploading data to the server
  4. [type] (String): Content-Type header (default is application/json)
  5. done (Function) Callback when request is finished, is always the last argument passed.

Object Method

Similar approach, see arguments above for explanation of values...

var request = new Ax({
  method: method,
  url: url,
  data: [data],
  type: [type],
  done: done
}, [done]);

NOTE: the done callback can either be in the first argument that is an object, or the last argument; but not both. If a function is detected as the last argument, Ax will use that and ignore the other.

Callback

The done callback function is passed as the last argument.

var request = new Ax(...args, function (res, xhr, err) {
  // Single error detection
  if (err) {
    // Whoops lets do something
  }
  console.log('response is', res);
});

It may also be part of the options object

var request = new Ax({
  ...options,
  done: function (res, xhr, err) {    
    if (err) console.error(err);
    console.log(res, xhr);
  }
});

Examples

Get user data...

var request = new Ax('GET', '/users/' + userid', function (res, xhr, err) {
  if (err) {
    // An error has occurred
  } else {
    var userdata = res;
    // Do something with user data.
  }
});

Update a user profile...

var request = new Ax({
  method: 'PUT',
  url: userUrl,
  data: newData,,
  done: callBack()
});

Post a form...

var request = new Ax('POST', '/submit/', formData, function (res, xhr, err) {
  if (err) {
    alert ('total failure', err);
  } else {
    console.log('server response is', res);
  }
});

<script src="ax.min"></script>

NodeJS

Ax.js has been built with browserify, and works with both browserify and webpack.

Install via npm:

require the module

var Ax = require('axjs');

CommonJS

Ax.js can be required in with a UMD or AMD library like requirejs.
