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

github-multi-clone

Clone multiple github repositories at-once using a repository search-term.

Alternative Repository

https://git.thessaloniki.link/alex/github-multi-clone

Motivation

Clone (secure or backup) open-source projects in which your work might be dependent on, you never know....

Requirements

  • unix
  • git
  • node-lts

Install

$ npm install -g github-multi-clone

Help

$ github-multi-clone -h

Simple Examples:

$ github-multi-clone 'react stars:>250 language:javascript' --sort stars
Cloning into '/home/alex/github-archive/freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp'...
Cloning into '/home/alex/github-archive/facebook/react'...
Cloning into '/home/alex/github-archive/facebook/react-native'...
Cloning into '/home/alex/github-archive/facebook/create-react-app'...
....

the following command clones all repositories written in javascript, having the term react in it and having more stars than 250.

More about the search term: https://docs.github.com/en/search-github/searching-on-github/searching-for-repositories

Note: If your search-term results in xy number of repository all will be downloaded, paginated.

Suggestion

if for example you are a python / django developer you could use the following command to backup highly-dependent open-source repositories:

$ github-multi-clone 'django stars:>250 language:python' --sort stars

Options

Depth --depth - define the git clone --depth attribute to save some disk-space, history isn't always important, DEFAULT IS: 50
