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 🙏

Delta Pouch

Greenkeeper badge Circle CI

A PouchDB plugin for partial updates that uses the every-doc-is-a-delta storage pattern. You can use delta pouch to enable conflict-free collaborative editing of the same docs.

Example

var db = new PouchDB('pages');

// Create a new page
db.save({ url: 'google.com', views: 0 }).then(function (doc) {
  // Update only the views attribute
  db.save({
    $id: doc.$id, // Set the id
    views: 1 });
});

Note: if you tried something similar with the db.put() built into pouchdb, the url attribute would be blanked out.

Usage

To use this plugin, include it after pouchdb.js in your HTML page:

<script src="pouchdb.js"></script>
<script src="pouchdb.delta-pouch.js"></script>

Or to use it in Node.js, just npm install it:

npm install delta-pouch

And then attach it to the PouchDB object:

var PouchDB = require('pouchdb');
PouchDB.plugin(require('delta-pouch'));

More Examples:

Create doc

db.save({ url: 'google.com', views: 0 }).then(function (doc) {
  // doc.$id is the id of the created doc
});

Update doc

db.save({
    $id: doc.$id, // id from creation
    views: 1
}).then(function (item) {
  // item.$id is the id of the updated doc, i.e. item.$id = doc.$id
});

Delete doc

db.delete(doc.$id).then(function (item) {
  // item.$id is the id of the deleted doc
});

Fetch all docs

db.all().then(function (docs) {
  // docs is an "associate array" of docs
});

Cleanup

db.cleanup().then(function () {
  // clean up has completed
});

Delta pouch stores every change as a doc. The cleanup() function removes any changes that are no longer needed and should probably be run via a periodic background process like a node cron job. It is not necessary to use the cleanup() function, but it is advisable as it reduces unneeded syncing and data storage.

Listen for events

db.deltaInit();
db.delta
  .on('create', function (doc) {
    // e.g. doc = { $id: 123, url: 'google.com', views: 0  }
  })
  .on('update', function (changes) {
    // e.g. changes = { $id: 123, views: 1  }
  })
  .on('delete', function (id) {
    // e.g. id = 123
  });

Save changes

var oldDoc = { $id: 123, url: 'google.com', views: 0 };
var newDoc = { url: 'google.com', views: 1 };
db.saveChanges(oldDoc, newDoc).then(function (changes) {
  // changes = { $id: 123, views: 1 };
});

Running the included examples

Note: you must have couchdb installed and Admin Party enabled

npm install
