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 🙏

Fetch Response Parser

Fetch Response Parser CI Status

Properly handle (JSON) responses from the Fetch API.

Overview

Handling Fetch API responses can be tedious. To get it right one must:

  • Check the response's status
  • Check the response's content-type
  • Call the proper body retrieval method
  • Write promise handlers

And most code doesn't even do it!

Instead of writing (or not writing) this boilerplate over and over you can use the Fetch Response Parser.

Installation

npm install fetch-response-parser

Or

yarn install fetch-response-parser

If you want to load from a script tag:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fetch-response-parser@VERSION/dist/fetch-response-parser.min.js"></script>

Where VERSION is the version number you want to use.

Usage

const parser = require('fetch-response-parser');

fetch('https://httpbin.org/json').
  then(parser.json()).
  then(json => console.log(slideshow.author)).
  catch(error => console.error(error)); // error is an instance of Error

Currently only the json function is supported.

If you're loading via the script tag instead of parser you'd use FetchResponseParser.

Options

The json function accepts the following options:

  • strict - if true raise an error if the response is successful but the body is not JSON; defaults to true

Error Handling

When an error occurs an instance of Error is thrown. This instance has the following additional properties:

  • json - Boolean indicating if the error response was JSON
  • responseBody - The response body of the error. Can be an Object, if json is true or a String if the response was not JSON
  • response - The Fetch API Response
  • redirected - Boolean indicating if the response was an HTTP redirect
  • redirectedTo - String location of the redirect

Here's an example:

const parser = require('fetch-response-parser');

function handleErorr(error) {
  if(error.json)
    console.error(error.body.some.property);
  else if(error.redirected)
    console.error(`Redirected to: ${error.redirectedTo}`)
  else
    console.error(error.body)
}

fetch('https://httpbin.org/html').
  then(parser.json()).
  then(json => console.log(json.some.property)).
  catch(handleError);
