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 🙏

Start PhantomJS web driver.

Build Status Dependency Status Bitdeli Badge

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-phantom --save-dev

The plugin assumes you have PhantomJS installed globally. If you do not wish to have it installed globally, you can install it as an optional dependency:

# From your project's root directory
cd node_modules/grunt-phantom/
npm install --optional

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-phantom');

The "phantom" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named phantom to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  phantom: {
    options: {
      port: 4444
    },
    your_target: {
    },
    another_target: {
      options: {
        port: 5555
      }
    }
  }
})

Options

port

Type: Number Default value: 4444

The web driver port in PhantomJS. Effectively:

phantomjs --webdriver=4444

Usage Examples

Default Options

In case you want to use the default 4444 port, you can omit the port option. Otherwise, if you want to use a different web driver port, set it like this:

grunt.initConfig({
  phantom: {
    options: {
      port: 5555
    },
    cucumber: {
    }
  }
})

Multiple PhantomJS instances

If you need to run multiple web drivers, you can have multiple targets:

grunt.initConfig({
  phantom: {
    options: {
      port: 5555
    },
    cucumber: {
    },
    mocha: {
      options: {
        port: 6666
      }
    }
  },
})

Here, if you run grunt phantom, two web drivers will be launched, cucumber on port 5555 and mocha on port 6666.

PhantomJS Output

If you want to see the output of PhantomJS, pass --debug option to your grunt command:

  grunt phantom --debug
