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

C2

C2 is a helper library for creating custom components that render to canvas. Currently C2 is only compatible with D3 v3, v4, and v5.

C2 works by allowing you to define custom element tags that are intended to render to canvas.

For example:

//define custom component tag

var Rect = c2.element(function (context) {
  context.fillRect(this.x,this.y,this.width,this.height);
}).attributes({
  x : c2.types.float,
  y : c2.types.float,
  width: c2.types.float,
  height : c2.types.float
});

//the attributes method above is used to compile optimized setAttribute 
//and getAttribute functions.  Attributes are also used by c2.animate to
//generate optimized tweening functions.  

//c2.Context2d is a custom tag provided by c2 that selects the 2d context from a canvas element
var context = d3.select('canvas').select(c2.Context2d)
  //tick is an event that triggers before each render frame
  //if you need to use an after render event, use "tock"
  .on('tick',function () {
    this.context.clearRect(0,0,this.context.canvas.width,this.context.canvas.height);
  })
var selection = context.selectAll(Rect).data(data,function (d,i) {return i;});
selection.enter()
  .append(Rect)
  .attr('x',0)
  .attr('y',0)
  .attr('width',0)
  .attr('height',0)
.merge(selection)

//c2.animate is uses its own internal scheduler, groups tweens by
//start/duration/easing and is generally faster than d3.transition
//as well as being easier on the garbage collector.
.call(c2.animate()
  .to({
    x : function (d,i) {return Math.random()*1000},
    y: function (d,i) {return Math.random()*500},
    height : 1,
    width : 1
  });
  
selection.exit()
  .call(
    c2.animate()
      .to({
        width : 0,
        height: 0
      })
      .remove()
  );

TODO

WebGL support api/docs

Demos (with code)

  1. Bars

  2. Donut (uses Path2D for canvas with d3.arc)

  3. WebGL

Quickstart

  1. Download script through npm or download/include the appropriate script. Pre-minified scripts are available.

<script src="/path/to/dist/c2.js">

or

npm install --save-dev c2

All scripts:

  • dist/c2.js

  • dist/c2.min.js

  • dist/c2.amd.js

  • dist/c2.amd.min.js

  • dist/c2.node.js

  • dist/c2.node.min.js

  • dist/c2.umd.js

  • dist/c2.umd.min.js

  1. Make sure you install d3.js. c2.js can be loaded before or after d3.

  2. Review demos and code away!

###API

#####c2.element(function(context,data,i)) - returns a new tag with the provided function for rendering ######functions

  • attributes(object) - defines attributes intended to be used for rendering of the declared element.

  • constructor(function) - function is invoked when the element is first created

  • proto (object) - properties and values from proto are added to the element prototype

  • toString() - returns internal c2Id

  • compile() - internal use only, but returns the renderable object

#####c2.create(function(context,data,i)) - alias for element

####Classes #####c2.Context2d - Wrapper class for CanvasRenderingContext2D ######events

  • tick(function) - function called before context2d renders

  • tock(function) - function called after context2d renders

######attributes

  • fillStyle[string]

  • globalAlpha[string]

  • lineWidth[string]

  • strokeStyle[string]

  • shadowColor[string]

  • shadowBlur[string]

  • shadowOffsetX[string]

  • shadowOffsetY[string]

#####functions (if using d3 - you should need to call these directly)

  • createElementNS (c2Tag|stringC2Id)

  • invalidate()

  • setAttribute(string,any)

  • getAttribute(string,any)

  • removeAttribute(string)

  • addEventListener(string,function)

  • removeEventListener(string,function)

  • querySelector(c2Tag)

  • querySelectorAll(c2Tag)

  • appendChild(c2Drawable)

  • insertBefore(c2Drawable)

  • removeChild(c2Drawable)

#####c2.animate(transitionName) - callable optimized c2 transition for working with large data. All of these should accept the same arguments as d3

  • delay (number|function) - time to wait before starting transition on c2 node

  • duration (number|function) - duration of transition on c2 node

  • ease (function) - easing function for transition

  • to (name,value)|(object) - compiles optimized tweening function. Values can be functions and will still compile.

  • tween (function) - Uncompiled tweening function for transition.

  • remove () - removes elements after transition is complete

UNFINISHED / WIP:

  • on('end'|'start',function) - listen to on/end events

  • animate(transitionName) - transition chaining.

#####c2.Layer2d - WIP - intended to be used for clumping complex renderables and only reprocessing changes ######events

  • tick(function) - function called before context2d renders

  • tock(function) - function called after context2d renders
