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 🙏

FTP Server -- Simple featureless FTP server

This is a very simple FTP server. At first it's aimed to simply provide a full-Node implementation of FTP server to be embedded for Unit Testing purpose.

It's currently highly experimental and could crash anytime. It could become a real FTP server if you want to contribute a bit ;) Don't be afraid: FTP protocol is quite simple.

Install

# Using NPM
npm install ftp-server

Or from source:

# Install from sources...
git clone git://github.com/naholyr/node-ftp-server.git ftp-server
cd ftp-server
npm link

# ...Then in your project
npm link ftp-server

You can run unit tests:

# From your project where ftp-server has been installed as a module
npm test ftp-server

# Or directly from ftp-server
npm test

Usage

Example: Simply serve a given directory:

var ftpd = require('ftp-server')
// Path to your FTP root
ftpd.fsOptions.root = '/path/to/ftp-root'
// Start listening on port 21 (you need to be root for ports < 1024)
ftpd.listen(21)

Extend server

Just look at the code. I'll fully document the ways to extend the server with additional features when it's at least more stable.

Paternity

Note that the original implementation I based my work on was @billywhizz 's from GitHub.

Roadmap

  • Add support for rename commands
  • Better implementation of LIST and NLST to be cross-platform
  • Add support for REST command (restart an interrupted download)
  • Maybe wrap all this stuff in a class or at least a function with options (like what FS we'll use)
  • Add better documentation on how to extend server (add "features") or new FS wrappers
  • Implement MemoryFS
  • Support authentication from config or even from database
  • Implement all the RFCs from FTP protocol
