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 🙏

cepy

An utility that helps debugging and packaging HTML5-based extensions for Adobe Creative Cloud applications.

This is an attempt to build a tool with all the capabilities of grunt-cep (and more!), but completely decoupled from Grunt and its conventions/ecosystem. Please refer to the Usage Example section below for a quick overview of the tool.

Goals:

  • Decouple grunt-cep from Grunt, so that the tool can be used with vanilla NodeJS, NPM scripts and command line.
  • Make less assumptions about user needs so that the tool is more generic and flexible.
  • Simpler configuration, customization and usage.
  • Use modern code standards to achieve better performance and maintainability.
  • Add more built-in functionality alongside what grunt-cep already offers, i.e.:
  • Simple project scaffolding. Just as grunt-init-cep, but built-in.
  • Generate manifest/debug files in a folder of choice. Useful to integrate the tool in a build process (i.e. webpack, browserify, etc.).
  • More flexibility when it comes to hybrid extensions.
  • Easy migration path from grunt-cep. Provide a grunt-cepy plugin to be able to continue to use the utility from Grunt.

Status

The project is in its early days. Most of the features of grunt-cep are already ported over, but might still be unstable/not completely working.

Next steps:

  • [ ] Continue to experiment with the concept of "build" as the backbone of the tool.
  • [ ] Consider which config settings might be moved out of the config file to provide more flexibility from command line and code.
  • [ ] Improve command line/NodeJS APIs.
  • [ ] Add more commands (such as create for project scaffolding).
  • [x] Add support for using minimum product versions in manifest/mxi files (see this post).
  • [x] Better console output and error reporting (especially when using the tool programmatically).
  • [x] Rework hybrid extensions support.

Usage Example

Config file:

// cepy.js

module.exports = {
	builds: {
		'example-build': {
			source: 'example-src',
			products: ['photoshop'],
			families: ['cc2015.5'],
			bundle: {
				id: 'com.acme.awesomebundle',
			}
			extensions: [{
				id: 'com.acme.awesomebundle.extension1',
				name 'Example Extension 1',
				mainPath: 'extension-1/index.html',
			},
			{
				id: 'com.acme.awesomebundle.extension2',
				name 'Example Extension 2',
				mainPath: 'extension-2/index.html',
			}]
		}
	},
	packaging: {
		output: 'release/my-awesome-bundle.zxp',
		certificate: {
			owner: 'acme',
			password: 'some password',
			file: 'distrib/acme-certificate.p12',
		}
	}
};

From the command line:

# cepy.js will be automatically loaded when running the tool
# use the --config <path> switch to select a custom config file path

# generate manifest/debug files for the 'example-build' build
cepy decorate --debug example-build

# or
# launch the 'example-build' build in debug mode
cepy launch --debug example-build

# or
# package all the builds in release mode (won't generate .debug file) to an output .ZXP file
cepy pack

From code:

const cepy = require('cepy'),
      config = require('./cepy.js');

const compiler = cepy(config);

// launch the 'example-build' build in debug mode
compiler.launch('example-build', { debug: true });

// or
// package all the builds in an output .ZXP file
compiler.pack();
