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 🙏

shuffle

Shuffle is a node.js package for shuffling and dealing decks of cards (or anything else you'd like to shuffle).

NPM

build status

Installation (via npm)

$ npm install shuffle

Quick Start

Using shuffle is simple:

var Shuffle = require('shuffle');
var deck = Shuffle.shuffle();
var card = deck.draw();

Alternatively you can draw multiple cards at once:

var hand = deck.draw(5);

You can also use it to deal cards to multiple hands:

var player1, player2, player3, player4;
deck.deal(5, [player1, player2, player3, player4]);

The above deals a card to player #1 then player #2 then player #3 then player #4 then back again to player #1 until each player has five cards.

If you need to reset and reshuffle the deck, it is as easy as:

deck.reset(); //sets the deck back to a full 52-card deck, unshuffled
deck.shuffle();

More Stuff

You don't have to shuffle standard playing cards. You can shuffle other stuff too:

var Shuffle = require('shuffle');
var goFish = [{color: 'red', number: 1}, {color: 'blue', number: 2}, ...];
var deck = Shuffle.shuffle({deck: goFish});

You can also supply your own randomizer so that you can supply a custom seed:

var Shuffle = require('shuffle');
var srand = require('srand'); //https://github.com/isaacs/node-srand (npm install srand)
srand.seed(1000);
var deck = Shuffle.shuffle({random: function(){ return srand.random(); }});

Other deck methods:

deck.drawFromBottomOfDeck() // 1 card
deck.drawFromBottomOfDeck(5) // array of 5 cards

deck.drawRandom() // 1 card
deck.drawRandom(5) // array of 5 cards

deck.putOnTopOfDeck(card)
deck.putOnTopOfDeck([card, card, card])

deck.putOnBottomOfDeck(card)
deck.putOnBottomOfDeck([card, card, card])

deck.length // integer (# of cards left in deck)
