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 🙏

Readme

form-data-maker

form-data-maker is a simple package for converting JavaScript objects into FormData. This tool helps you easily create form data and prepare it for sending to a server.

Installation

To install the package, use npm:

npm install form-data-maker

Usage

To use form-data-maker, import it and then call the objectToFormData function with your desired data.

import objectToFormData from 'form-data-maker';

// Sample data
const data = {
    name: 'John Doe',
    age: 30,
    files: [new File(['content'], 'file.txt')]
};

// Convert to FormData
const formData = objectToFormData(data);

Parameters

  • obj: The object you want to convert to FormData.
  • form: (optional) An instance of FormData to which you want to append. If not provided, a new FormData instance will be created.
  • namespace: (optional) A namespace for keys. This helps you organize the keys hierarchically.

Example

const userData = {
    username: 'user123',
    password: 'password123',
    profile: {
        firstName: 'John',
        lastName: 'Doe'
    }
};

const formData = objectToFormData(userData);

Output

The objectToFormData function returns a FormData object that includes the input data as key-value pairs.

Notes

  • The function works recursively and can correctly process nested objects.
  • If any input value is a File object, it will be properly added to the FormData.
