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

blueprints is a JavaScript template library for generating DOM elements. It takes a directory and converts it into a namespaced template library.

Installation

npm install blueprints

Usage

Create a template file with a .html extension (can be changed through options object see below) for this example we will name this file list.html. Place this file in a root directory and then compile it using one of the methods below.

root_dir/list.html

<div class="## if (something) { ##a-class## } ##">
   ## for (var i = 0, l = xs.length; i < l; i++) { ##
   <span>##= xs[i].name##</span>
   ## } ##
</div>

When you include your compiled template library in your javascript web app you will be able to access it using the window.blueprints function passing in the id of the template and data to be used in the template.

var element = window.blueprints('list', { 
   something: true, 
   xs: [ { name:'foo' }, { name:'bar' } ] 
});

Here is a slightly more compiles template directory and the ids that correspond to the different files.

root_dir/list.html                       list
root_dir/reports/table.html              reports:table
root_dir/reports/structure.html          reports:structure
root_dir/reports/daily/breakdown.html    reports:daily:breakdown

Compilation

Through a terminal:

$ blueprints {directory}

will out the template file to stdout

$ blueprints {directory} -o {file}

will out the template file to the specified file

$ blueprints -m {directory}

will minify the template file before outputting it

As a module:

var blueprints = require('blueprints');

new blueprints(path, { minify: true }).out(writeable_stream);
