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 🙏

Event Emitter 3

Installation

npm i event-e3

import

// Deno
import Emitter from 'https://unpkg.com/event-e3/event-e3.js'
// rollup webpack typescript, node12+
import Emitter from "event-e3";
// raw import
import Emitter from "./node_modules/event-e3/event-e3.js";
// with require()
const Emitter = require("event-e3/built/event-e3.js");

API

eventName must be a string or a symbol

Emitter

As a decorator:

const user = Emitter({ name: 'tobi' });

As an instance:

const emitter = new Emitter();

.on(eventName, fn)

Register an eventName handler fn.

.emit(eventName, data)

Emit an event eventName with data. Will trigger previously registered handlers

.once(eventName, fn)

Register a single-shot eventName handler fn, removed immediately after it is invoked the first time.

.off(eventName, fn)

  • Pass eventName and fn to remove a listener.
  • Pass eventName to remove all listeners on that eventName.
  • Pass nothing to remove all listeners on all events.

.listeners(eventName)

Return an array of callbacks, or an empty array.

.hasListeners(eventName)

True if this emitter has any eventName handlers.

.eventNames()

Returns an array listing the events for which the emitter has registered listeners.

.eventNamesStrings()

Same as .eventNames() but the array is only Strings.

EmitterListener

EmitterListener exposes a way to subscribe to subscriptions and unsubscriptions. It can only be used as a constructor, example usage:

import {EmitterListener, onSubscribe, onUnsubscribe} from "event-e3/source/EmitterListener.js";
const x = new EmitterListener(); 

x.on(onSubscribe, console.log.bind('console', 'on\'ed'))
x.on(onUnsubscribe, console.log.bind('console', 'off\'ed')) 

EmitterListenerPlus

EmitterListener further extends EmitterListener. It can be used to direclty listen for the first subscription and last unsubscription for a given event name and It can only be used as a constructor, example usage:

import {EmitterListenerPlus, onFirstSubscribe, onLastUnsubscribe, onSubscribe, onUnsubscribe} from "event-e3/source/EmitterListenerPlus.js";
const x = new EmitterListenerPlus(); 

x.on(onFirstSubscribe, console.log.bind('console', 'on\'ed'))
x.on(onLastUnsubscribe, console.log.bind('console', 'off\'ed')) 

RegularListener

Extends EmitterListenerPlus, also emits onFirstSubscribeString and onLastUnsubscribeString

filterEventStream

Makes it convenient to filter an event stream. The new event stream is emitted on the same emitter as regular events.

An example use case: An Emitter emits 'Earthquake' for the scientific community. But the general public is interested in big ones only.

import Emitter from "event-e3";
import {filterEventStream} from "event-e3/source/filterEventStream.js";
const earthQuakeEmitter = Emitter({});

const isBigEarthQuake = earthQuake => earthQuake.richterScale > 6;
filterEventStream(earthQuakeEmitter, 'Earthquake', 'BigEarthQuake', isBigEarthQuake);

// the original event is still emitted
earthQuakeEmitter.on('Earthquake', scientificCommunity.study);

// 'BigEarthQuake' happens sometimes
earthQuakeEmitter.on('BigEarthQuake', newsAggregator.publishNews);
earthQuakeEmitter.on('BigEarthQuake', humanHelpWithoutBorders.organize);

Comparison with NodeJs Event Emitter

  • this is undefined inside the event handler
  • error events do not trigger any special logic
  • no captureRejections
  • no maxListener
  • .emit can only emit 1 thing (use array or object for more)
  • no prepend
  • no method aliases
  • no dependencies
