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 🙏

Build Status

Description

ember-cli addon that provides type-ahead selection for text inputs (requires ember.js 1.11+)

Demo

http://emberjs.jsbin.com/hohegogizi/1/

Installation

npm install ember-cli-auto-complete --save-dev

How to use this component

First add a custom component that extends AutoComplete. In this component you need to add 2 computed properties and 1 string variable.

1) suggestions:    this computed will determine how the list of options is filtered as the user enters text
2) optionsToMatch: this computed will determine if the value entered is valid (when the user omits to click/enter/tab the selection)
3) valueProperty:  this string should be the value property for the options passed in (think selectbox value/label)
import AutoComplete from "ember-cli-auto-complete/components/auto-complete";

export default AutoComplete.extend({
  valueProperty: "code",
  suggestions: function() {
      var inputVal = this.get("inputVal") || "";
      return this.get("options").filter(function(item) {
          return item.get("code").toLowerCase().indexOf(inputVal.toLowerCase()) > -1;
      });
  }.property("inputVal", "options.@each"),
  optionsToMatch: function() {
      var caseInsensitiveOptions = [];
      this.get("options").forEach(function(item) {
          var value = item.get("code");
          caseInsensitiveOptions.push(value);
          caseInsensitiveOptions.push(value.toLowerCase());
      });
      return caseInsensitiveOptions;
  }.property("options.@each")
});

Next add the component to your template including a block with html for the options (requires ember 1.11)

{{#my-auto-complete options=codes inputClass="foobar" selectedValue=model.code placeHolderText="Find a thing" noMesssagePlaceHolderText="No things are found" as |result|}}
  <p><b>{{result.code}}</b>{{result.text}}</p>
{{/my-auto-complete}}

Finally prepare a list of options for the component in the route or controller

var Foo = Ember.Object.extend({});
var Bar = Ember.Object.extend({code: ""});

export default Ember.Route.extend({
    model: function() {
        var codes = [];
        codes.pushObject(Foo.create({code: "ABC", text: "SOMETHING 1"}));
        codes.pushObject(Foo.create({code: "ABCD", text: "SOMETHING 2"}));
        codes.pushObject(Foo.create({code: "ABCDE", text: "SOMETHING 3"}));
        return Ember.RSVP.hash({
            model: Bar.create(),
            codes: codes
        });
    },
    setupController: function(controller, hash) {
        controller.set("model", hash.model);
        controller.set("codes", hash.codes);
    }
});

Handling item selected

If you would like to call an action every time an elements is selected just bind the action through the attribute selectItem.

{{#my-auto-complete
   options=codes
   selectedValue=model.code
   placeHolderText="Find a thing"
   inputClass="my-fun-input-thing andTwo"
   noMesssagePlaceHolderText="No things are found"
   selectItem="itemSelected" as |result|}}
   <p><b>{{result.code}}</b>{{result.text}}</p>
{{/my-auto-complete}}
<p class="selection">{{controller.selection}}</p>

In the example above the action itemSelected will be called with the selected item, bubbling through your routes and controllers.

  actions: {
    itemSelected: function(item) {
      this.get('controller').set('selection', item.get('code'));
    }
  }

Credits

First I'd like to thank Nick Christus for the design work that made this great component happen to begin with. Next I'd like to thank Charlie for his amazing project ember-cli-suggest as this project truly represents a fork of his work.
