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

Bang

Bang is a command line tool for quick storage and retriveal of text snippets. It is inspired by and very similar to holman's Boom. The main difference is that Bang has no concept of lists: it is only one level deep. It also has a simpler interface to avoid accidentally creating stuff.

Installation

Requirements:

Then:

$ npm install -g bang

Get help

$ bang -h

Or, if you have not yet stored any data, simply run bang.

Add a snippet

$ bang jimmy http://jimmycuadra.com/

Retrieve a snippet

$ bang jimmy
http://jimmycuadra.com/

Delete a snippet

$ bang -d jimmy

List all snippets

$ bang
  jimmy: http://jimmycuadra.com/
   mtnt: http://morethingsneed.to/
address: 237 Overlook Street

Storage

Bang's data is serialized to JSON and peristed to a file at ~/.bang. If you want to share your Bang data across multiple machines, you can move the file to Dropbox or some other type of network disk, and then symlink it to ~/.bang on your local machine.

Tests

Bang includes a comprehensive test suite using Jasmine. To run it:

$ npm install -g coffee-script
$ git clone http://github.com/jimmycuadra/bang.git
$ cd bang
$ npm install
$ cake spec

For continuous testing, use cake watch. This also rebuilds CoffeeScript files whenever the tests are run.
