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

Heatmap

Heatmaps for node.js and the browser!

Example Heatmap

Example

blob.js

const Heatmap = require("heatmap");
const fs = require("fs");
const heat = new Heatmap(500, 500, { radius: 30 });

for (let i = 0; i < 5000; i += 1) {
  let rho = Math.random() * 2 * Math.PI;
  let z = Math.pow(Math.random(), 2) * 200;

  let x = 250 + Math.cos(rho) * z;
  let y = 250 + Math.sin(rho) * z;

  heat.addPoint(x, y);
}

heat.draw();

fs.writeFileSync("blob.png", heat.canvas.toBuffer());

Methods

var heat = new Heatmap(...)

There are two ways of creating a new heatmap:

  • With the id of the target canvas element
  • With the height and width values for the canvas element to be created

Optionally, you can set the opts.radius and opts.threshold to control the rendering a little.

heat.addPoint(x, y, params)

Add a point to the heatmap with a radius.

params must be an object and can have:

  • radius, defaults to heat.radius || 20
  • weight, defaults to 0.1

heat.scale(x, y)

Scale the canvas by the coefficients x and y.

If y is undefined, scale both x and y by the first parameter, x.

heat.draw()

Render all the points onto the canvas element.

heat.canvas

The HTML Canvas element.

Protip: with the canvas module for node you can heat.canvas.buffer() to get a Buffer with a PNG file all up in it.

Install

With npm, just do:

npm install heatmap-pkg

Or with yarn:

yarn add heatmap-pkg
