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

gulp-multi-process

Build Status

Run gulp tasks in separate CPU processes

Install

npm install gulp-multi-process --save-dev

Usage

Gulp 3

gulpfile.js

var gulp = require('gulp');
var gulpMultiProcess = require('gulp-multi-process');

gulp.task('task1', function(cb) {
  // example
});

gulp.task('task2', function(cb) {
  // example
});

gulp.task('multi', function(cb) {
  // task1 and task2 will run in different processes
  return gulpMultiProcess(['task1', 'task2'], cb);
});

Gulp 4

gulpfile.js

const gulp = require('gulp');
const gulpMultiProcess = require('gulp-multi-process');

function task1() {
  // example
});

exports.task1 = task1;

function task2() {
  // example
});

exports.task2 = task2;

// gulp single will run task1 and task2 on a serial way
exports.single = gulp.series(task1, task2)

function multi(done) {
  // task1 and task2 will run in different processes
  return gulpMultiProcess(['task1', 'task2'], done);
}

exports.multi = multi;

Warning

Run task in multiple processes is not always good for performance because spawn a different node processes is slow. It also depends on how long time it takes to require your gulpfile. Keep in mind that you can pass true as a third parameter to gulpMultiProcess fn in order to get optimal performance. This will launch one process per core, and if there will be more of them than the number of cores on your machine it will put others into queue. When one process will finish its operation, the next one will be on launched.
