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

duplicate-requests

This middleware aims to avoid duplicated requests made the client, due to lack of network, or nervous and frustrated endless cliking.

Assuming the client send an unique id with every request (not duplicated requests), the middleware will send an error or resend the content of the previous request if a request already arrived have the same id.

Usage :

import duplicate from "duplicate-requests";
// or
const duplicate = require("duplicate-requests").default;

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

app.use(duplicate({
    expiration: "2h",
    property: "id",
    prefix: "root"
}));

app.get("/", (req, res) => res.end("Hey!"));

app.listen(8080, () => console.log("Listening!"));

Options

{
  expiration: "2h", /* Expiration time of the request in memory
                     * should be an int followed by ms, s, m, h, d, w,
                     */
  property: "id", /* Property which contains the id
                   * should be a string or a function 
                   * with a req paramater which returns a string
                   */
  prefix: "article.add", // Prefix to group requests in storage
  errorHandling: {
    statusCode: 429, // The status code to send if request is duplicated
    json: {} // Javascript plain object to send if request is duplicated
  },
  connectionUri: "" // Leave empty to store object in memory, or use redis:// or mongodb://
}

External storage

If you want to use an external storage (currently supported are Redis and MongoDB), you need to install one of the following package :

npm install --save @keyv/mongo
npm install --save @keyv/redis

Todo

  • [x] Custom error

  • [ ] Parameter to cache request and don't send error

  • [x] Timestamp parser (1d, 3h)

  • [x] Pick id from body

  • [x] Integration test for middleware
