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 🙏

Subscriptions

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status Dependencies

Get a user's list of repository subscriptions.

Installation

$ npm install github-subscriptions

Usage

var subscriptions = require( 'github-subscriptions' );

subscriptions( opts, clbk )

Get a user's list of repository subscriptions.

var opts = {
	'username': 'kgryte'
};

subscriptions( opts, clbk );

function clbk( error, results, info ) {
	// Check for rate limit information...
	if ( info ) {
		console.error( 'Limit: %d', info.limit );
		console.error( 'Remaining: %d', info.remaining );
		console.error( 'Reset: %s', (new Date( info.reset*1000 )).toISOString() );
	}
	if ( error ) {
		throw new Error( error.message );
	}
	console.log( JSON.stringify( results ) );
	// returns <repo_data>
}

The function accepts the following options:

To authenticate with Github, set the token option.

var opts = {
	'token': 'tkjorjk34ek3nj4!'
};

subscriptions( opts, clbk );

To get a list of repositories a particular user is watching, set the username option.

var opts = {
	'username': 'kgryte'
};

subscriptions( opts, clbk );

To specify a user agent, set the useragent option.

var opts = {
	'useragent': 'hello-github!'
};

subscriptions( opts, clbk );

subscriptions.factory( options, clbk )

Creates a reusable function.

var opts = {
	'username': 'kgryte',
	'token': 'tkjorjk34ek3nj4!'
};

var get = subscriptions.factory( opts, clbk );

get();
get();
get();
// ...

The factory method accepts the same options as subscriptions().

Notes

  • Either a username or a token or both must be provided. If provided a token, but not a username, the function fetches a list of repositories the authenticated user is watching on Github.
  • Rate limit information includes the following:
    • limit: maximum number of requests a consumer is permitted to make per hour.
    • remaining: number of remaining requests.
    • reset: time at which the current rate limit window resets in UTC seconds.

Examples

var subscriptions = require( 'github-subscriptions' );

var opts = {
	'username': 'kgryte',
	'useragent': 'beep-boop-bop'
};

subscriptions( opts, clbk );

function clbk( error, results, info ) {
	if ( info ) {
		console.error( info );
	}
	if ( error ) {
		throw new Error( error.message );
	}
	console.log( results );
}

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

$ DEBUG=* node ./examples/index.js

CLI

Installation

To use the module as a general utility, install the module globally

$ npm install -g github-subscriptions

Usage

Usage: ghwatching [options] 

Options:

  -h,  --help               Print this message.
  -V,  --version            Print the package version.
       --token token        Github access token.
       --username username  Github username.
  -ua, --useragent ua       User agent.

Notes

  • In addition to the token option, the token may also be specified by a GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable. The command-line option always takes precedence.
  • Request resources are written to stdout.
  • Rate limit information is written to stderr.

Examples

Setting the access token using the command-line option:

$ DEBUG=* ghwatching --token <token> --username kgryte
# => '[{...},{...},...]'

Setting the access token using an environment variable:

$ DEBUG=* GITHUB_TOKEN=<token> ghwatching --username kgryte
# => '[{...},{...},...]'

For local installations, modify the command to point to the local installation directory; e.g.,

$ DEBUG=* ./node_modules/.bin/ghwatching --token <token> --username kgryte
# => '[{...},{...},...]'

Or, if you have cloned this repository and run npm install, modify the command to point to the executable; e.g.,

$ DEBUG=* node ./bin/cli --token <token> --username kgryte
# => '[{...},{...},...]'

Tests

Unit

This repository uses tape for unit tests. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

Test Coverage

This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-cov

Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage directory. To access an HTML version of the report,

$ make view-cov

Browser Support

This repository uses Testling for browser testing. To run the tests in a (headless) local web browser, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-browsers

To view the tests in a local web browser,

$ make view-browser-tests
