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 🙏

Basic usage

From keplerian elements:

var czml = require("czml-writer");

var orbit = new czml.orbit.fromParams({
    apogee: 426.9, // km
    perigee: 416.2, // km
    inclination: 51.65, // deg
    rightAscension: 304.1, // deg
    argumentOfPeriapsis: 117.8 // deg 
});
var output = orbit.czml();

From two-line elements

var czml = require("czml-writer");

var tle = 'NOAA 14\n' +
    '1 23455U 94089A   97320.90946019  .00000140  00000-0  10191-3 0  2621\n' +
    '2 23455  99.0090 272.6745 0008546 223.1686 136.8816 14.11711747148495';
var orbit = new czml.orbit.fromTle(tle);
var output = orbit.czml();

To expose and use kepler.js orbit object

var kepler = orbit.orbit;

//angularMomentum
var angularMomentum = kepler.angularMomentum();

//radialVelocity
var radialVelocity = kepler.radialVelocity();

//eccentricity
var eccentricity = kepler.eccentricity();

//semimajorAxis
var semimajorAxis = kepler.semimajorAxis();

//semiminorAxis
var semiminorAxis = kepler.semiminorAxis();

//semilatusRectum
var semilatusRectum = kepler.semilatusRectum();

//inclination
var inclination = kepler.inclination();

//nodeLine
var nodeLine = kepler.nodeLine();

//rightAscension
var rightAscension = kepler.rightAscension();

//argumentOfPeriapsis
var argumentOfPeriapsis = kepler.argumentOfPeriapsis();

//trueAnomaly
var trueAnomaly = kepler.trueAnomaly();

//apoapsis
var apoapsis = kepler.apoapsis();

//periapsis
var periapsis = kepler.periapsis();

//period
var period = kepler.period();
