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

Build and test status npm version

Computron

Computron is a Node.js library to apply XSLT stylesheets to XML documents. It's a C++ addon for Node.js that uses libxml2 and libxslt.

Disclaimer

This library is only intended to be used on Linux.

Requirements

You must have libxml2 and libxslt1 installed on your system.

sudo apt install libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev

You should already have a C++ compiler installed on your system, if it's not the case install g++.

sudo apt install g++

Computron uses node-gyp as a build system so you need to install it to be able to compile Computron

npm install -g node-gyp

Usage

Basic example:

const Computron = require('computron');
const computron = new Computron();

// A stylesheet needs to be loaded on the current instance before doing anything
try {
  computron.loadStylesheet('/path/to/stylesheet');
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
}

// Apply the previously loaded stylesheet on the provided XML file
let xmlResult;
try {
  xmlResult = computron.apply('/path/to/xml');
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
}

console.info(xmlResult);

Using a stylesheet that takes parameters:

const Computron = require('computron');
const computron = new Computron();

// A stylesheet needs to be loaded on the current instance before doing anything
try {
  computron.loadStylesheet('/path/to/stylesheet/with/params');
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
}

// Apply the previously loaded stylesheet on the provided XML file
let xmlResult;
try {
  // Parameters can be passed to the stylesheet
  const params = {
    param1Name: 'value1',
    param2Name: 'value2',
  };

  xmlResult = computron.apply('/path/to/xml', params);
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
}

console.info(xmlResult);

Development

To build and run the tests in release mode run:

npm test

You can debug the C++ code with in VSCode, to do so run:

npm run build:config

This will build the VSCode debugger configuration, you can then simply press F5 or go to the "Run and Debug" tab and click on "Debug".
