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 🙏

Readme

robots.txt snippet.

Opt your web properties out from known AI scraper tools.

NPM package.

yarn add disallow-ai or npm i disallow-ai

See below for API.

What is this?

This is an opinionated, maintained list of known user agents of scraper bots that use web content to train AI models.

This package is intended to help webmasters automatically opt out of training AI/machine learning models with the content of a property. Its intention is to remain visible for search engines and productivity tools. It's optimized for Node.js servers (e.x., Express/Next.js) but you can also copy-paste contents from src/robots.txt directly into your robots.txt file on any web server.

API.

  • printRobotsTXT(options) prints text string for robots.txt (same content as the above snippet).
    • options.path if you want to set a disallow path to something other than /, you'll need to pass a value to this key.
  • userAgents is a direct reference to an array of objects with all the user agent info.

Example.

const express = require("express");
const server = express();

const { printRobotsTXT } = require("disallow-ai");
server.get("/robots.txt", (req, res, next) => {
    res.type("text/plain");
    res.send(printRobotsTXT());
});

server.listen();

You can run an example server with node ./example/server.js.
