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 🙏

Google Maps Image API

Usage

var publicConfig = {
  keys:[{key:"google-server-key",limit:10000},{key:"google-server-key2",limit:2500}]
  stagger_time:       1000, // for elevationPath
  encode_polylines:   false,
  secure:             true, // use https
  proxy:              'http://127.0.0.1:9999' // optional, set a proxy for HTTP requests
};
var gmAPI = new GoogleMapsAPI(publicConfig);

// or in case you are using Google Maps for Work
var enterpriseConfig = {
  google_client_id:   '<YOUR-CLIENT-ID>', // to use Google Maps for Work
  google_private_key: '<YOUR-PRIVATE-KEY>', // to use Google Maps for Work
  stagger_time:       1000, // for elevationPath
  encode_polylines:   false,
  secure:             true, // use https
  proxy:              'http://127.0.0.1:9999' // optional, set a proxy for HTTP requests
};
var gmAPI = new GoogleMapsAPI(enterpriseConfig);

// geocode API
var geocodeParams = {
  "address":    "121, Curtain Road, EC2A 3AD, London UK",
  "components": "components=country:GB",
  "bounds":     "55,-1|54,1",
  "language":   "en",
  "region":     "uk"
};

gmAPI.geocode(geocodeParams, function(err, result){
  console.log(result);
});

// reverse geocode API
var reverseGeocodeParams = {
  "latlng":        "51.1245,-0.0523",
  "result_type":   "postal_code",
  "language":      "en",
  "location_type": "APPROXIMATE"
};

gmAPI.reverseGeocode(reverseGeocodeParams, function(err, result){
  console.log(result);
});

Static Maps

var gmAPI = new GoogleMapsAPI();
var params = {
  center: '444 W Main St Lock Haven PA',
  zoom: 15,
  size: '500x400',
  maptype: 'roadmap',
  markers: [
    {
      location: '300 W Main St Lock Haven, PA',
      label   : 'A',
      color   : 'green',
      shadow  : true
    },
    {
      location: '444 W Main St Lock Haven, PA',
      icon: 'http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chst=d_map_pin_icon&chld=cafe%7C996600'
    }
  ],
  style: [
    {
      feature: 'road',
      element: 'all',
      rules: {
        hue: '0x00ff00'
      }
    }
  ],
  path: [
    {
      color: '0x0000ff',
      weight: '5',
      points: [
        '41.139817,-77.454439',
        '41.138621,-77.451596'
      ]
    }
  ]
};
gmAPI.staticMap(params); // return static map URL
gmAPI.staticMap(params, function(err, binaryImage) {
  // fetch asynchronously the binary image
});

This example prints the URL for the Static Map image: "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=444%20W%20Main%20St%20Lock%20Haven%20PA&zoom=15&size=500x400&maptype=roadmap&markers=color%3Agreen%7Clabel%3AA%7Cshadow%3Atrue%7C300%20W%20Main%20St%20Lock%20Haven%2C%20PA&markers=icon%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fchart.apis.google.com%2Fchart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600%7C444%20W%20Main%20St%20Lock%20Haven%2C%20PA&path=weight%3A5%7Ccolor%3A0x0000ff%7Cenc%3A%7BbbzFfyvwMnFwP&style=feature%3Aroad%7Celement%3Aall%7Chue%3A0x00ff00"

By giving gm.staticMap an optional callback, you can retreive the static map PNG data:

You will get a map like:

Some Map

Street view

var gmAPI = new GoogleMapsAPI();
var params = {
  location: '51.507868,-0.087689',
  size: '1200x1600',
  heading: 108.4,
  pitch: 7,
  fov: 40
};
var result = gmAPI.streetView(params);

London - Tower Bridge from London Bridge
