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 🙏

carbonate-code-snippets

Generates carbon-now screen captures for code snippets, ideally after each commit.

Usage

npx carbonate-code-snippets <pre-defined theme name> <code snippets src root dir> <carbon pictures root dir> [<additional params>]

You can run it:

  • manually locally: npx -y [email protected] 4sh-learning code-snippet generated-code-snippet-pics
  • from a github action: example here
  • automatically, through a git post-commit hook (for instance configured by lefthook): example here

Additional params

You can pass additional params to the CLI in order to override provided theme preset :

  • config:<path to a preset json file>: Allows to provide a manually-defined preset file
    (can be useful for testing purposes, or if embedded themes are not suiting your needs)
    Example: config:./my-custom-theme.json
  • param:<param name>=<param value>: Allows to override specific properties from preset file Example: param:width=680px

How it works

It takes 3 input variables :

  • themeName: Carbon theme which is going to be applied. Look at src/carbon-config.ts file for available themes (ex: 4sh-learning)
  • srcDir: Root directory of (textual) your code snippets. Tree of this file hierarchy will be replicated into targetDir
  • targetDir: Root directory of your carbon pictures, replicating srcDir directory/file tree.

Steps

  • Look for additional CLI params and determine how preset config overrides are going to be applied
    Considering cliConfigOverrides as these preset configuration overrides.
  • Look for ${targetDir}/.last-generation-commit.sha1 file :
    • When found, make a git diff between commit in this file and current HEAD, and extract every changes detected in srcDir from this diff.
    • When not found, consider that every files under ${srcDir} are concerned by carbon generation.
  • Let's consider updatedFiles is the variable for the files that have been identified on previous step
  • Iterate over every ${updatedFiles}, as updatedFile, then :
    • Identify carbon language to use based on ${updatedFile} extension (see src/carbon-config.ts's FILE_EXTENSIONS_PER_LANGUAGE) :
      If none is found, consider auto language
      Let's consider lang will capture this language.
    • Create a carbon-config file in a temp directory (consider file path to this file as configFilePath), which will contain :
      • src/carbon-config.ts's CONFIGS[themeName]...
      • .. with overrides coming from cliConfigOverrides
      • .. with updated language field set to ${lang}
    • Call carbon-now CLI (from carbon-now-cli), with config ${configFilePath},
      for ${updatedFile} (from ${srcDir}) and translating path to ${targetDir}
  • Once every file have been generated, update ${targetDir}/.last-generation-commit.sha1 to reflect current HEAD's commit
  • Creating a git commit (from changes in ${targetDir}) then pushing this commit will be left at the discretion of the calling script

Limits

  • File deletion into srcDir is not supported yet.
    No workaround for this.
  • Multiple src directory synchronization.
    Workaround: call carbonate-code-snippets multiple times with different (src, target) directory pairs
    Since carbonate-code-snippets will not commit / push anything, you can have every generation included into a single git commit after the generations
  • Carbon picture re-generation (for instance, if we want to update theme, or change used theme)
    Workaround: Delete ${targetDir}/.last-generation-commit.sha1 then run carbonate-code-snippets.
