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 🙏

get-xpath

📑 Extract the XPath of an HTML element

  • Works with browsers, NodeJS and DenoJS (JavaScript 5 and TypeScript)
  • No external dependencies
  • Unit-tested
  • Semantic Versioning

Install

npm i get-xpath

API

function getXPath( element: HTMLElement, options?: Partial< Options > ): string;

Where options is an optional object containing:

| name | type | description | |------------|---------|---------------------------------------| | ignoreId | boolean | Do not take elements' ID into account |

Example:

<html>
    <body>
        <div id="x" ></div>
        <script>
            const div = document.getElementById( 'x' );
            const xpath1 = getXPath( div ); // returns '//*[@id="x"]'
            const xpath2 = getXPath( div, { ignoreId: true } ); // returns '/html/body/div'
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Usage

Notes:

  • On Node or Deno, you have to provide a way to accessing or emulating the DOM. You can use JSDOM (or any other library) for that.
  • When using TypeScript, add the value "dom" to the property "lib"of your tsconfig.json. Otherwise you will probably get errors.

Browser

Global:

<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/get-xpath" >
<script>
console.log(
    getXPath( document.getElementById( 'foo' ) )
);
</script>

ESM:

<script type="module" >
import getXPath from 'https://unpkg.com/get-xpath/index.esm.js';
console.log(
    getXPath( document.getElementById( 'foo' ) )
);
</script>

NodeJS

/// <reference lib="dom" />
const getXPath = require('get-xpath');
console.log(
    getXPath( document.getElementById( 'foo' ) )
);

Deno

/// <reference lib="dom" />
import getXPath from 'https://unpkg.com/get-xpath/index.esm.js';
console.log(
    getXPath( document.getElementById( 'foo' ) )
);
