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

gatsby-plugin-react-helmet-canonical-urls

This can be use as a drop in replacement of gatsby-plugin-canonical-urls.

Add canonical links to HTML pages Gatsby generates using react helmet.

This implementation is primarily helpful for distinguishing between https/http, www/no-www but could possibly be extended to help with when sites add multiple paths to the same page.

Motivation

gatsby-plugin-canonical-urls and gatsby-plugin-react-helmet are plugins that do not always play well together. The first one always inserts a default canonical url, but doesn't allow to override that value in an easy way. When trying to use react helmet to override gatsby-plugin-canonical-urls default url, you will end up with two canonical tags.

This plugin, as writes the default canonical url using react helmet, allows to override default canonical url just using the standard react helmet api.

Install

npm install --save gatsby-plugin-react-helmet gatsby-plugin-react-helmet-canonical-urls

How to use

// In your gatsby-config.js
plugins: [
  `gatsby-plugin-react-helmet`,
  {
    resolve: `gatsby-plugin-react-helmet-canonical-urls`,
    options: {
      siteUrl: `https://www.example.com`,
    },
  },
]

With the above configuration, the plugin will add to the head of every HTML page a rel=canonical e.g.

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.example.com/about-us/" />

Additional options:

  • exclude (Array of string or RegExp, default undefined): exclude pages from being added a canonical url. Useful when combining with other SEO-related meta tags like noindex. (Urls should be listed without trailing slash)
  • noTrailingSlash (default false): it will remove the trailing slash from canonical link. Use this option if you use gatsby-plugin-remove-trailing-slashes
  • noHash (default false): remove hash from the canonical link.
  • noQueryString (default false): remove query from the canonical link.
