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 🙏

Cascade Reduce

0.0.4 update: This update adds a new function that allows you to chain iterators just by adding them as extra arguments. You no longer need to invoke the iterators one inside the other. The updated function also does not require you to use a special function to create iterators. Here is a use example for 0.0.4:

// the new method is called 'cascadeNoNest'
var reduce = require('cascadeReduce').cascadeNoNest;

// it takes an iterator and returns a function
var totalArray = reduce(function(acc, el){
  return acc + el;
})

// extra iterators are simply functions that take one element
var onlyEven = function(el){
  return (el % 2 > 0) ? 0 : el
}

var timesOneHundred = function(el){
  return (el * 100)
}

var timesTwo = function(el){
  return (el * 2)
}

/*
when you invoke the reduce function with an array, an accumulator 
and a chain of iterators, each item will pass through the chain from
left to right before being passed into the reduce function
*/

totalArray([1,2,3,4], 0, onlyEven, timesOneHundred, timesTwo) //=> 1200

Here is the documentation for the original library, which is still available as part of the module:

Cascade Reduce allows you to pass any number of iterators into a reduce function such that each iterator will be invoked with each item in the collection in a chain. There are two functions in this library: cascadeReduce and cascadeIterator.

cascadeReduce

cascadeReduce = function(iterator){
	return function(collection, accumulator, iterator_chain){...};
}

cascadeReduce is a function that takes an iterator and returns a function that takes a collection, an accumulator, and a nested chain of iterators.

cascadeIterator

cascadeIterator = function(iterator){
	return function(item_or_iterator){...}
}

cascadeIterator takes an iterator function and returns a function that can take either another cascadeIterator or an element as its sole argument. Each element from reduce will pass through the iterators, starting with the outermost iterator, and will finally be passed into the iterator that was passed into cascadeReduce.

Use

var reduce = require('cascade-reduce').cascadeReduce;
var iterator = require('cascade-reduce').cascadeIterator;

var totalArray = reduce(function(acc, item){
	return (acc + item);
})

var onlyEven = iterator(function(item){
	var modTwo = item % 2;
	return (modTwo > 0) ? 0 : item;
})

var timesOneHundred = iterator(function(item){
	return (item * 100)
})

var timesTwo = iterator(function(item){
	return (item * 2)
})

totalArray([1,2,3,4]) //=> 11
totalArray([1,2,3,4], 0, onlyEven) //=> 4
totalArray([1,2,3,4], 0, onlyEven(timesOneHundred)) //=> 400
totalArray([1,2,3,4], 0, onlyEven(timesOneHundred(timesTwo))) //=> 1200
