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

grunt-rendr-stitch

Use Stitch to package up your modules for use with Rendr (github.com/airbnb/rendr).

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-rendr-stitch --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-rendr-stitch');

The "rendr_stitch" task

Overview

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

In this example, you can see how to use options.dependencies and options.aliases.

grunt.initConfig({
  rendr_stitch: {
    options: {
      dependencies: [
    	'assets/vendor/**/*.js'
      ],
      aliases: [
      	{from: 'node_modules/rendr/shared', to: 'rendr/shared'},
      	{from: 'node_modules/rendr/client', to: 'rendr/client'}
      ]
    },
    files: {
      dest: 'public/bundle.js',
      src: [
      	'app/**/*.js',
      	'node_modules/rendr/shared/**/*.coffee',
      	'node_modules/rendr/client/**/*.coffee'
      ]
    }
  }
});

We can then use Stitch in the browser to require any of the source files.

var UserShowView = require('app/views/user_show_view');

Aliases allow us to use the the same paths for requiring NPM modules in both Node.js and in the browser. For example:

var BaseView = require('rendr/shared/base/view');

In Node.js, this path will tell the module loader to look into the NPM module named rendr to find the specified module. In the browser, we can do the same thing because we've bundled node_modules/rendr/shared/**/*.coffee and set up an alias to rendr/shared.

Options

options.dependencies

Type: Array Default value: []

An array of file glob patterns to pass as dependencies to stitch.createPackage(). These files are prepended to the bundled JavaScript package as-is, without being wrapped as a Stitch module. This is useful for third-party client-side only files, such as jQuery, that aren't wrapped in a CommonJS module.

options.aliases

Type: Array Default value: []

Aliases provide a way to do fancy bundling of Stitch packages in order to replicate something like NPM module paths from Node. Each element in the array is an object with from and to properties. For example:

dependencies: [
  {from: 'some/path/on/disk', to: 'fancy/path/in/client'}
]

Suppose the some/path/on/disk directory looks like this:

|- util.js
|- lib/something.js

Then, in the client-side you can require the module using the aliased path:

var something = require('fancy/path/in/client/lib/something');

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
