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 🙏

Electron Epos Printer

This package provides a small printer service to make printing receipts a little easier.

The project itself is in its infancy, and has only a small amount of features these feature include:

  • Adding headers
  • Adding paragraphs of text
  • Adding tables

Firstly you need to instantiate the class with the required configuration:

const printConfig = {
        preview: false, // Preview in window or print
        width: '200px', //  width of content body
        margins: {
            marginType: 'none',
        }, // margin of content body
        copies: 1, // Number of copies to print
        printerName: 'Your printer name', // printerName: string, check it at webContent.getPrinters()
        timeOutPerLine: 200,
        silent: true,
        pageSize: {
            height: 301000,
            width: 71000
        }
    };


    const printService = new PrintService(printConfig);
    
    printService.addHeader('Receipt', true)
        .addTable(
        	['Some', 'heading', 'row'],
            [
            	['row', 'one', 'entry'],
                ['row', 'two', 'entry'],
            ],
        )
        .addText('Total Order: $10.00')
		.addText('Thank you for your order');
    
    printService.print();
    

Print Config Structure

| Config Item | Type | Description | | ------------- | ------ | ------------- | | preview | boolean | The default value is false, if set to true, a preview window will load and no printing will occur | | width | string | The width in pixels of the printing | | margins | object | and object containing the marginType | | copies | number | The amount of copies you wish to print | | printerName | string | This is the printer name. It must be the string representation of the printer name | | timeOutPerLine | number | Default to 200 - the timeout per line | | silent | boolean | If true, the printer config options will appear before printing | | pageSize | object | An object containing the height and width of the page size |

Compatibility

In testing, this only works on node version 14.17.3 (with npm 6.14.3) - there appears to be compiler issues on the current node version which needs investigating.
