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 🙏

Extract Schema from Postgres Database

Reads various metadata from your postgres database and return a Javascript object. This package is used by Kanel to generate Typescript types and Schemalint to provide linting of database schemas.

View the documentation here

Installation

npm i extract-pg-schema

Library Usage

You give it a postgres connection config object and some options and it will connect to your database and generate

const { extractSchemas } = require('extract-pg-schema');

async function run() {
  const connection = {
    host: 'localhost',
    database: 'postgres',
    user: 'postgres',
    password: 'postgres',
  };

  const result = await extractSchemas(connection);

  console.log(result);
}

run();

For an example of a generated object, take a look at dvdrental.json file which is generated from the sample Database from PostgreSQLTutorial.com.

CLI Usage

You can also use the CLI to extract the schemas from a database and write it to the console or a file in JSON format.

npx extract-pg-schema -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres -d postgres > schemas.json

The CLI takes a small subset of the options that pg_dump takes. You can also use the environment variables starting with PG to set the connection parameters.

Usage: extract-pg-schema [options] [DBNAME]

Extract all schemas from a PostgreSQL database and print them as JSON.

Options:
    --help                      show this help
    -h, --host=HOSTNAME         database server host or socket directory
    -p, --port=PORT             database server port
    -U, --username=USERNAME     database user name
    -d, --dbname=DBNAME         database name to connect to
    -n, --schema=SCHEMA         include schema regular expression (may be given multiple times)
    -N, --exclude-schema=SCHEMA exclude schema regular expression (may be given multiple times)
