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 🙏

Hubot

This is a version of GitHub's Campfire bot, hubot. He's pretty cool.

You'll probably never have to hack on this repo directly.

Instead this repo provides a library that's distributed by npm that you simply require in your project. Follow the instructions below and get your own hubot ready to deploy.

Getting your own

Make sure you have node.js and npm (npm comes with node v0.6.5+) installed.

Download the latest version of hubot.

Then follow the instructions in the README in the extracted hubot directory.

Adapters

Adapters are the interface to the service you want your hubot to run on. This can be something like Campfire or IRC. There are a number of third party adapters that the community have contributed. Check the hubot wiki for the available ones and how to create your own.

Please submit issues and pull requests for third party adapters to the adapter repo not this repo unless it's the Campfire or Shell adapter.

hubot-scripts

Hubot ships with a number of default scripts, but there's a growing number of extras in the hubot-scripts repository. hubot-scripts is a way to share scripts with the entire community.

Check out the README for more help on installing individual scripts.

HTTP Listener

Hubot has a HTTP listener which listens on the port specified by the PORT environment variable.

You can specify routes to listen on in your scripts by using the router property on robot.

module.exports = (robot) ->
  robot.router.get "/hubot/version", (req, res) ->
    res.end robot.version

There are functions for GET, POST, PUT and DELETE, which all take a route and callback function that accepts a request and a response.

Testing hubot locally

Install all of the required dependencies by running npm install.

It's easy to test scripts locally with an interactive shell:

% export PATH="node_modules/.bin:$PATH"
% bin/hubot

... and to run unit tests:

% make test
