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 🙏

rss

This is where I put my JavaScript code to generate RSS feeds from my apps, running in the browser and in Node.

Example app

I put together a simple test app that includes an example of the data you would send to daverss, as a pair of JavaScript objects, to build a feed.

It comes from my Radio3 linkblog, which is a real feed, still updated daily in January 2020.

Updates

v0.6.0 -- 5/5/22 AM by DW

If there's a markdowntext value for an item, generate a source:markdown element in the item in the feed.

v0.5.31 -- 12/29/21 by DW

Change the value of rssCloudDefaults.path to /ping, which according to Andrew Shell is the actual path rpc.rsscloud.io responds to. Andrew runs that server.

v0.5.30 -- 10/11/21 by DW

In package.json we now require dateformat 4.5.1 because they updated the package to not work with older versions of Node.

v0.5.29 -- 4/4/20 by DW

I wanted to get the Cuomo podcast feed to validate through iTunes, so I added the needed features.

  1. Support for the <channel> level <image> element.

  2. Two elements of the itunes namespace: category and explicit.

v0.5.20 -- 1/14/20 by DW

Added a test app that illustrates how to use the package in a Node app.

v0.5.4 -- 7/4/17 by DW

Bring in support for Facebook Instant Articles feeds.

v0.4.14 -- 6/9/17 by DW

Per Dan MacTough's suggestion, in the JSON version, the length attribute on enclosure should be a number. If it coerces to a number, great, if there's an error, leave out the length property.

v0.4.8 -- 5/29/17 by DW

Change name of rss.getRssEnclosureInfo to rss.getEnclosureInfo.

v0.4.2 -- 5/29/17 by DW

Major code review, bring it up to date with my latest software. Also includes buildJsonFeed which generates a 1-1 equivalent of the RSS feed, but using JSON instead of XML. I plan to support this format in Scripting News.
