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

eb-authenticate-npm

This module installs an .ebextensions config file that will authenticate your Elastic Beanstalk environments to npm.

The config file will do this by creating an .npmrc that reads the value of the NPM_TOKEN environment variable. This .npmrc file will only be created in EB, letting you use whatever authentication strategy you like locally. (The alternative.)

By the way I was really hoping that EB would automatically read NPM_TOKEN as per this Stack Overflow answer but that didn't work for me (tested 8/3/2016).

Installation

  1. npm install eb-authenticate-npm --save-dev (see here for why --save-dev)
  2. Commit the .ebextensions file it creates.
  3. Set the NPM_TOKEN EB environment variable to an npm authentication token.
  4. Deploy.

Modifying the .ebextensions file

This module will overwrite the file if/when it is updated.

Pull requests are welcome if you have some generally-useful modifications to suggest.

If you'd like to make modifications specific to your use case, you should uninstall this module after installing the .ebextensions file. Uninstallation won't take the file with it.

Thanks/Prior art

Thanks to Remy Sharp for suggesting this strategy, and this Stack Overflow answer for helping me figure out where the .npmrc needed to be written.
