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

cache-manager-express-mw

Middleware for Express that uses cache-manager to add a caching layer in front of your application.

Features

  • cache-manager is a robust caching solution for node that provides a number of features.
  • Uses HTTP/1.1 Cache-Control header to control the cache behavior.
  • Cache keys are autogenerated based on the HTTP method and route to ensure consistency.

Installation

npm install cache-manager-express-mw

Examples

You can register the middleware globally using app.use().

var cacheManager = require("cache-manager");
var cache = cacheManager.caching({ store: "memory" });

var cacheManagerExpress = require("cache-manager-express-mw");
app.use(cacheManagerExpress({ cache }));

Alternatively, you register the middleware with a specific route to allow for different routes to use different caching mechanisms and options:

app.get("/", cacheManagerExpress({ cache }), (req, res) => {
  // ...
});

In addition to the cache, you can pass in a options object to control the behavior of the middleware:

var cacheManagerExpress = require("cache-manager-express-mw");
app.use(cacheManagerExpress({ cache, options: { prefix: "MyApp" } }));

A fully functional sample app is available in this repository under the sample directory.

Options

| Property | Default | Description | | ----------|-----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | prefix | undefined | A prefix to append to the front of the generated cache key in case differentiation is needed. | | defaults | undefined | An object containing query string default values so that a missing query string value and the specified default resolve to the same cache key. For example, { defaults: { val: "abc" } } will ensure that the routes /a/b/c and /a/b/c?val=abc resolve to the same cache key. | | headers | undefined | A list of headers whose values should be included in the cache key. For example, { headers: [ "Authorization" ] } will include the value of the "Authorization" header in the cache key, so calls made with different Authorization headers won't result in cache hits, but calls with the same Authorization headers will. | | callbacks | undefined | An object containing one or more callback functions (see Callbacks below). |

Callbacks

It is possible to specify callback functions that are called when an during attempts to retrieve a value from the cache:

  • onAttempt(key): executed when any attempt is made to retrieve a value from the cache
  • onHit(key, value): executed when a cache hit occurs and the value is retrieved from the cache
  • onMiss(key): executed when a cache miss occurs and the value is not present in the cache
  • onError(err, key): executed when an error occurs during the attempt to retrieve a value from the cache
