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 🙏

#blacksmith-apprentice

Migrate your posts from your current blog and into a blacksmith-compatible format.

Apprentice currently supports the following blogs:

  • wordpress
  • habari

But adding support for [your current blog software] is as trivial as writing a MySQL query. Check out blogs.json for an idea of how to structure an apprentice-compatible query.

##Usage

  1. Run npm install blacksmith-apprentice.
  2. Edit config.json to include your database details and its current blog engine.
  3. run node apprentice.js. Apprentice will create an output directory containing the blacksmith-formatted posts. These can be put in your blacksmith site's pages directory.
  4. These pages will be converted to HTML with your other posts next time you run blacksmith generate.

Notes

  • Wordpress uses a <!--more--> tag to represent where the preview and rest of content are separated. Apprentice will change this to the blacksmith/wheat version, which is ## in Markdown.
  • Apprentice does not transcode from HTML to Markdown, so if you use any HTML markup in your posts in [your current blog software], it will be unchanged. This shouldn't cause an issue for the Markdown -> HTML conversion that happens during blacksmith generate.
