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 🙏

Test Status Version

Create GitHub releases from CHANGELOG.md

This tool edits the git tag on GitHub and create a GitHub release with the correct changelog section.

You need:

  • a changelog file (various filenames supported automatically or specified via --filename option) with markdown titles that start with the version (eg: # 1.2.0, ## v1.2.0, # [1.2.0...)
  • a package.json with a version field.
  • a git tag with the corresponding version in either X.Y.Z or vX.Y.Z formats.
  • a GITHUB_TOKEN as an env var. See https://github.com/MoOx/npmpub#requirements for instructions.

Included in npmpub !

npm install github-release-from-changelog

Usage

Advanced Installation and Usage

github-release-from-changelog is fully integrated in npmpub. Please follow the instructions at https://github.com/MoOx/npmpub#install to install and use it. npmpub automatically calls github-release-from-changelog by default.

github-release-from-changelog also plays well with other publishing tools such as release-it. One can create a release using release-it (which also updates package.json, but does not free you from maintaining CHANGELOG.md for yourself) and then use github-release-from-changelog to create the release on GitHub.
