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 🙏

EatDailyJam

Downloads todays Daily Jam from dailyjam.co.nz.

This node.js command line app downloads the day's free music MP3 file from DailyJam.co.nz.

You can run it manually, or may I suggest you configure it as a daily cron job, copying the files to iTunes 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder; end result being whenever you sync your phone, you'll get a batch of new tunes without having done anything. Sweet. We're all about the lack of effort.

##Installation

Ensure you have node and npm installed by executing

node --version

at your command line and see it report Node version at least 0.10. If you are behind or node is not installed, install / update it from http://nodejs.org/.

Once that is sorted, globally install eat-daily-jam by executing

npm install -g eat-daily-jam

at the command line, which should install the program without error.

##Execution

Once EatDailyJam is installed, test it works OK, it should, by executing this at your command line:

eat-daily-jam -d .

you should see the program have a bit of a chat to you and in the end a music track shows up in your current directory.

mbp:~ adrian$ eat-daily-jam -d .
Eat Daily Jam v 0.4.0
   Saving jam to "/Users/adrian" folder.
   Reading dailyjam.co.nz...
   Parsing...
   Today's jam is 'Breath of fresh air' by Tim Armstrong Band...
   Downloading... (be patient, this takes a wee while)
Done! Check out 'Breath of fresh air' by Tim Armstrong Band at /Users/adrian and kick out the jam!

All good! From there it's over to you, but I suggest you wire up a cron job to execute it daily, so you never miss a jam again.

Big thanks to Si White at Silent Designs (http://silentdesigns.co.nz) for both putting Daily Jam up in the first place, and also being cool enough to help me out with a couple of changes to his code when I asked nicely for them :) cheers Si.
