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 🙏

daily-at

run a function once a day at 3:15am UTC

import { dailyAt } from "daily-at";

dailyAt("03:15", () => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
}, {    
    // all options are optional
    killOnError: true,              // default: false
    runOnInit: true,                // default: false
    onError: e => console.log(e)    // no default
})

options

  • killOnError (default: false) will stop executing the function if there is an error.
  • runOnInit (default: false) will execute the function once when the script is initiated, as well as periodically.
  • onError optional callback function when the script causes an error. The error is passed to the callback function.

run a function 15 minutes past every hour

import { hourlyAt } from "daily-at";

hourlyAt(15, () => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})

run a function every Monday at 7:15am UTC

import { weeklyAt } from "daily-at";

weeklyAt("monday", "07:15" () => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})
NOTE: you can use, for example, 1 instead of "monday". (Sunday = 0, Saturday = 6)

run a function on the 4th of every Month at 9:00am UTC

import { monthlyAt } from "daily-at";

monthlyAt(4, "9:00" () => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})
NOTE: if you choose any date greater than 28, it will skip months that do not have that many days.

hourly, daily, weekly

The difference between daily and dailyAt is that dailyAt will execute the function at a specific time. Whereas daily will execute the script once every 24 hours from when the script is ran. Same for hourly and hourlyAt as well as weekly and weeklyAt

import { hourly, daily, weekly } from "daily-at";

hourly(() => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})

daily(() => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})

weekly(() => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})

every

run a function with a custom time period, eg. once every 6 hours

import { every } from "daily-at";

// 6 hours (in milliseconds)
every(1000 * 60 * 60 * 6 () => {
    console.log("Hello World!");
})
