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 🙏

cURL Request for Node.js

License Downloads

cURL Request is a cURL wrapper, support all options and infos from cURL.

Why a cURL wrapper?

  • All node libaries i have tested are very buggy in case you use a proxy and https
  • cURL is working for all cases since years
  • The wrapper is easy to use with promises

Installing

To utilize for node.js install the the npm module:

$ npm install curl-request --save

After installing the npm package you can now start simplifying requests like so:

const curl = new (require( 'curl-request' ))();

If you have problems installing the dependencies, use this to build it from source:

$ npm install node-libcurl --build-from-source 

Usage

const curl = new (require( 'curl-request' ))();

curl.setHeaders([
    'user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36'
])
.get('https://www.google.com')
.then(({statusCode, body, headers}) => {
    console.log(statusCode, body, headers)
})
.catch((e) => {
    console.log(e);
});
