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 🙏

Comments and annotations for Etherpad

Screen shot

Installing this plugin with npm.

npm install ep_short_edition_comments_page

Extra settings

This plugin has some extra features that can be enabled by changing values on settings.json of your Etherpad instance.

Alternative comment display

There is an alternative way to display comments. Instead of having all comments visible on the right of the page, you can have just an icon on the right margin of the page. Comment details are displayed when user clicks on the comment icon:

To use this way of displaying comments, add the following to your settings.json:

// Display comments as icons, not boxes
"ep_short_edition_comments_page": {
  "displayCommentAsIcon": true
},

Highlight selected text when creating a comment

It is also possible to mark the text originally selected when user adds a comment: Screen shot

To enable this feature, add the following code to your settings.json:

// Highlight selected text when adding comment
"ep_short_edition_comments_page": {
  "highlightSelectedText": true
},

Warning: there is a side effect when you enable this feature: a revision is created everytime the text is highlighted, resulting on apparently "empty" changes when you check your pad on the timeslider. If that is an issue for you, we don't recommend you to use this feature.

Disable HTML export

By default comments are exported to HTML, but if you don't wish to do that then you can disable it by adding the following to your settings.json:

"ep_short_edition_comments_page": {
  "exportHtml": false
},

Creating comment via API

If you need to add comments to a pad:

  • Call this route to create the comments on Etherpad and get the comment ids:

    curl -X POST http://localhost:9001/p/THE_PAD_ID/comments -d "apikey=YOUR_API_KEY" -d 'data=[{"name":"AUTHOR","text":"COMMENT"}, {"name":"ANOTHER_AUTHOR","text":"ANOTHER_COMMENT"}]'

    The response will be:

    {"code":0,"commentIds":["c-VEtzKolgD5krJOVU","c-B8MEmAT0NJ9usUwc"]}
  • Use the returned comment ids to set the pad HTML via API:

    My comment goes <span class="comment c-VEtzKolgD5krJOVU">here<span>.

    Result: Screen shot

NOTE: Adding a comment to a pad via API will make the other editors with that pad to be alerted, but this feature is only active if your Etherpad is run in loadTest mode. Read the Etherpad Guide for how to enable load testing.
