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 🙏

Mount express controllers to routes automatically

In most of the time, we need to mount handlers / controllers to routes manually.

e.g.

/** now we are in routes/index.js **/
var homeRouter = require('./home/'),
  userCtrl = require('../controllers/user');

// Method 1: mount a sub router to a path. kinda code splitting but still complicated
app.use('/', homeRouter);

// Method 2: mount controllers to routes one by one, sucks
app.get('/user', userCtrl.index);
app.post('/user/login', userCtrl.login);
app.get('/user/logout', userCtrl.logout);
...

It's hardly elegant, so here comes express-auto-routes.
Firstly, npm install express-auto-routes --save

e.g.

/** now we are in app.js **/
var path = require('path'),
  express = require('express'),
  app = express();

var autoRoutes = require('express-auto-routes')(app); // you don't need `routes` folder any more
autoRoutes(path.join(__dirname, './controllers')); // auto mounting... done!

// ...other configures

app.listen(8080);
/** now we are in controllers/hello/world.js **/
exports.get = function (req, res, next) {
  res.send('hello world');
};

Then visit localhost:8080/hello/world, you will see hello world


The magic is just globbing all the valid controller files and resolve them based on relative path.
Since we glob files recursively, without doubt it supports unlimited sub folders.

e.g.

controllers/a/b/c/d/e/f/g.js => localhost:8080/a/b/c/d/e/f/g

Here I highly recommend you checking out the example/ folder for more detail.

> npm install
> npm run example

[AutoMount] use /home/
[AutoMount] use /user/
[AutoMount] use /user/logout/
[AutoMount] all /user/setting/
[AutoMount] get /home/foo/bar/world/
[AutoMount] get /user/setting/:uid
[AutoMount] delete /user/logout/:uid
[AutoMount] get /home/foo/hello/
[AutoMount] get /home/foo/bar/
[AutoMount] get /user/logout/
[AutoMount] get /user/:uid?
[AutoMount] get /home/foo/
[AutoMount] get /home/xyz/
[AutoMount] post /setting
[AutoMount] get /login
[AutoMount] get /home/
[AutoMount] post /login
[AutoMount] put /user/
[AutoMount] post /log
[AutoMount] get /

then visit localhost:8080 and test the above APIs with Postman
